COOPERATIVE Use OF
FUNDS WOULD BE POSSIBLE

At present the Associated chambers Of
commerce say to the county supervisors:
"Why don't YOU appropriate money for
advertising, and let US handle it, And
the board of trade, as agent Of the super
visors. retaliates with the question, why
doesn't the Associated chambers Of COM
merce donate funds to the board Il trade
to finance a greater advertising pro-
gram ." And nobody gets anywhere.
If the various agencies were interlock-
ed, however, with d perfect understand
ing of one another's obiectiveS and with
perfect confidence in the soundness Of
the advertising and publicity methods
to be used. it is highly probable that
financial diffirultie, could be ironed out
satisfactorily. tt individual cham
bers of commerce, all ot which now spend
a fairly large share Of their money ON
countrywide promotion material, might
be willing to contribut. whatever per
centage this is 10 the unifi-d, county
wide organzation-since the county or
ganization would be headed by the same
men who head the individual chambers.

search for unity by creating an uMbroak-
able liaeon between these two forces.
Why not. in other words provide thut
the board OF trades five members shaI!

bers Of commerce from throughout the
valley who arc most active Or it might
be wise to enlarge the board Of trade 10
include 10 member>-the chamber pre,-
idents and The secretaries Of their cham
bers
In that way tie board Of trade would
have complete unity Of purpose with
the various chambers Of commerce. and
so with the Associated chan, berS Of com
merce. There should be. under such a
plan. no cross purposes and no miSuNder-

only unity. hut a system und.r which the
activities of every individual chamher ot

In the meantime Allison was go
ing along in modest way, building
occasional racing cars, experimental
motors and crakshaft bearings

1929. in order 10 acquire these bear

By 1885 the plant began to eX-
pand in its old Indianapolis loca-

tor whose foundation was in an
experimental model built for the
NavyS dirigible program in 1890.
