C. OF C. DISCUSSES COMMUNITY
BUILDING FOR 1949 PROJECT

MEMBERS OI Cne fOrC clinton
Chamber of Commerce, at their
annual meeting Thursday night,
were informed that their organi-
zation had contributed $3.50 to
community improvement, welfare
and recreational projects during
1948.
Of the total, $500 went to the
lake front improvement, $435 to
the entire cost of the July Fourth
celebration, $105 to the Christmas
street lighting and the balance to
contributions for Magruder Hos
pital and to school activities.
The Lake Front Improvement
continues to be the No. l project
even though the greatest progress
was accomplished this past year.
Chamber members were .gratified
to note that since the Chambers
inception Of the trial improvement
in front of city park, this pro-
ject has received the active sup
port of the city officials, local or
ganizations and the entire COM
munity.
Kenneth Black, chairman of the
River & Harbor committee, re-
ported that the Chamber had in
stigated and paid most Of the cost
of equipment necessary to illumi-
nate the waterworks stack during
the navigation season. The light
ing is to be doubled this year to
aid boatmen in safer night navi-
cation.
Mr.. Black also told of the
Chambers preliminary contacts
with the government officials and
navigation authorities in an eff
fort to have the east pier raised
higher above water level, which
was also accomplished this year.
A report was given of savings
to chamber members by their ad-
herance to their policy of not
contributing to countless solicita-
tions for funds, unless said solic-
itation had first been approved by
the solicitation committee.
The "Welcome Lady" practice
of the Chamber had received
many gratifying comments from
newcomers to Port Clinton who
had been visited by the welcoming
hostess.
When President Carlton Schwan
read the report of poll conducted
here among residents, some of
whom mentioned that some cham
Der members and others did not
welcome new industries to this
city, immediate exception was TAX
en-.
Francis Mekus, chairman of the
Industry and Trade committee,
cited a number of letters his COM
mittee had written to prospective
industrialists. In each case he
cited, the prospectors requested
already available factory build
+ ings.
Henry Cowgirl had written SIM
liar letters, Ralph Forster, chair
man of the Retail Trade commit
tee similarity reported. To date,
! none of these requests was for
factory space but for already
available buildings. Most asked
for q minimum of 10000 square
feet.
During a discussion of existing
telephone service, Merlin Luedeke,
of the Northern Ohio Telephone
company, explained the problems
involved.
Slow delivery of needed equip
ment seemed to be the biggest
bottleneck. Luedeke stated that
