CHAMBER OF COMMERCE HEAD
DECLARES MORE INTEREST IN

"Cooperation r.ilhor limn non-con-rtrucllvu
criticism Is needed."
I Tli In Ih the keynote nf nn address
made to tho chamber r coiunicrcu
yesterday nttcinuuii by President I'.
1. Spalding that la regarded ns the be
ginning uf n new phase of administra
tion nf puhllc nffalrK.

er liiteicst In public, particularly city
nml county utlnlrs, Picsldcut Hpald
iIik'h nddlcss outlined the piesslug
needs for more economical nnd elll
I'lent government.
No charge wore made ngnlnst In
dividuals, In fact, President Spalding
emphasized that It la not n specific
'ut n ifciicral laxity thai needs cor
lection, nnd from the standpoint of a
publlc-mlndcd ciHreii as a ell as one
of the leading financiers of the tei
rltory, he urged thu commercial hod
'cs to woik with tlio supervisors, to'
nicpnrp now for the elections that me
coming, and to make suggestion rath
or than condemnation,
The address was read mid after
! concluding It. Pieshlciit Spalding
ludded:
"I believe wo have a right In knuw
Low puhlle finiilH arc spent mid to
expect better results than wo are get
ting."
Chnlrniaii K. K. Pnxtun, of tlio leg
Islallvu committee, linincdlatcly arose
end said:
".Mr. Clinlimnn, I nm very glad you
hate Been fit to bring up the point )iu
have Thero are thing that need
correction. Tlio condition of the
mads, particularly, are going from
bad to worse, and very little vlslblo
effort Ih being made to better them
I believe It la within Iho provlnco of
die chamber of commerce to get In
touch with the board uf supervisors,
not In thu aplrlt of criticism but of
advice and help."
T. Cllve Da log also favored the
plan of the business men taking more
of an Interest in public affairs, nnd
raid that the trouble lies In the whole
atmosphere, that when u road laborer
Is seen Idlo by thu roadside and little
or no notice taken of it, thu whole
atmosphere Is shown to he faulty.
The matter was referred to the leg
islative committee, of which Mr. Pax
tou is chairman.
In his address Mr, Spalding said:
"Representing this chamber, t at
tended :i short time ngo, by Initiation
of the (Inventor, a meeting at his ol

hensive plans for luipiovlug tlio sani

"This situation demands the expen
