McFARLAND Campaign Director,, American City Bureau In seeking the goal of an active membership of workers In the modern chamber of Commerce, I have expldined the valde of tbe Members Forum, tbe building of a Program of Work from the aug- gesttons of group meetings of the entire membership, and the Special Committee system. The Korun brings the members together often In well-conducted meetings. The group meetings get them on record as to wbat They would like to sco the Chamber of heavy j Commerce accomplish, and the Special Committee system puts them to work on activities In which they are Interested. Tho next feature I wish to de scribe. bnd logically U would come first, is tbe democratic system of electing the controlling body of the Chamber of Commerce, the board of directors. Democracy In a Chamber of Com merce Implies the right of the mem bershlp to determine, not only the policies of the organization, but also the leadership within the or ganization which shall administer Its business. There can be no true democracy In an organization If elections are not conducted In a democratic manner. In many cities chamber of com merce boards have been self-per petuating representatives of small group In the community who assumed tho privilege and only Incidentally felt the duty to think and speak for the membership of tho organization. This condition, wblch was largely responsible for the decline of many organizations through loss of confidence in the self-appointed leadership and through subsequent detection of the membership, may be attributed In largo measure to the opportunl tics offered, and Indeed Invited, for manipulation of elections under tho old system of nomination by a nominating committee. This method, even when a sincere at tempt was made to make tbe board representative, has failed to con vince and satisfy the membership and the public. In a modern organisation the membership Is given full power to select a board of directors without suggestion or restriction. For the old ‘nominating system committee’ there has been substituted the prt mary system. Evldehce of the vadlllty of tbls change In practico Is to be found lb the fact that. Once adopted, the primary system has never boon abandoned. In the primary for the nomina tion of directors, a ballot ti mail ed to each membec.with a list of tbe entire memberfblp and be Is asked to nominate the required number to be elected by carefully consulting the entire list and select Ing men by their unselfish public spirit and activity have- proved their right to be directors of tbe big centralized organization of the community. If. let ui say. there were four teen directors to be elected, tbe twenty-eight hlgheit In the primary - woultf be nominated. These wonld be placed on tbe Anal ballot, and the fourteen receiving the largest number of votes would be of course be elected. The final election would be conducted by mall also. Under tbls system, each member would know that be has the same power In the election of dlrectora a* any other member; also that he had the same opportunity to be honored by election on the board. Theso considerations would natural ly give him an Increased Interest In the organization. Directors chosen by this plan realize that they have been given a vote of conndcnce as unselfish public ser vants by a large body of public spirited men and women. They will make better dlrectora because of the responsibility conferred up on them. EFIM. TIBS II (Hollomon Praises Work Of Th$JA$f3 University In Special Article Tbe announcement that H. O.
