CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
LINED UP FOR GOOD
AGGRESSIVE WORK

"A u y II L DOEVE WUKn
Due to press of work in the office
Of the Chamber Of Commerce since
the efficient new secretary, Margaret
X. Stewart, has taken charge, a spec
ial meeting of the board of directors
was called for last night at the Of
flee Of the Chamber in the Mayhem
studio.
At a previous meeting of the
board, Captain Wright had been APP
pointed to investigate and sign the
! road directing traffic to Tuba, the
Gap, and other places of interest
| along that route, and he reported
that this matter was being taken
care of. The marking of the road
at the rim of Oak Creek canyon was
also suggested but this matter was
referred to the forest service. The
fact was pointed out that If we ex-
pect to take care of the enormous
tourist travel over that road this
summer and in future summers, we
must mark it so that those not IA
miliar with the road will not have
any accidents on account Of the
steepness of the grade.
