ADVERTISING
We live iu a day of publicity. Con-
Bciuously or unconsciously. We are
almost daily affected in what we buy
and sell, eat or use. by the vast intang-
ible forces of publicity. South Texas
is one of the greatest undeveloped
regions of the United States and must
have adequate publicity; and we re-!
commend putting in a first class-pub-1
lie by and advertisin g bureau, to ;
function as a part _ of the proposed (
organization. •, J
AGRICULTURE and IRRIGATION
We propose tr^ put. before our peo-1
pie the advantages accuring to them j
because of the near completion of the ;
state-wide topographical and hydro-;
graphical survey of the streams and ;
water sheds and reservoirs of Texas
30 that, operating under the newly
perfected water right laws of Texas,
many new and desirable irrigation
projects may be created and financed.
We also purpose to expand and de-
velop our present agriculture, especi-
ally along diversified lines.
X
These five activities might well con-
stitute the problems, in our opinion,
around which the business interests
of South Texas might well concen-
trate their efforts.
In order to properly build the kind
of organization which we think should
exist, in our judgment, it should haye
a small number of employees, but the
employees should be persons well
qualified to efficiently handle the
work. We believe it is much better
to start in a modest way and build
thereform; and we. therefore, for the
consideration of the general meeting,
recommend the following basis for a
permanent organization:
REPRESENTATION: Eveny Cham-
ber of Commerce (or proper equiva
lent) in South Texas within the pres-
cribed tferritorv'to be covered by the
organization, shall be eligible to mem-
bership, and the Presidents of local
Chambers of Commerce shall automa-
tically become members of the Board
of Directors of the Association; in
other words, each affiliated Chamber
t -T
of Commerce shall have one represen-
tative only on the Board,- Regardless
of size or the amount of money which
such Chamber might pay into the trea-
sury of the Association. This'Board
shall operate the same as any similar:
Board, and shall be vested with full
and complete power to commit the
Association on subjects coming before
it for consideration. In the event the
President of a local affiliated Cham-
ber of Commerce is unable to serv on
the Board of the Association, he shall
have the right to name someone to
serve in his place. The Board of Di-
rectors of the Association shall have
‘he power to elect, from their mem-
bership, the President and $wo Viee-
Presidents. They shall also appoint
the"" Secretary-Manager, who shall
serve under their direction. The Sec-
retary-Manager shall select other
employees of the organization.
FINANCE: The organization shall
be financed upon the basis of a quota
assessment for each affiliated town.
Such quotas shall be worked out at a
round table meeting at the Directors,
or by a committee appointed from the
Directorate and every affiliated tow-n
shall brave the right to ask for a review
of its quota, as assessed by the Board,
at any regular meeting of the Board.
The quota assessments of each affili-
ated town shall be based upon the con-
sideration of their Chamber of Com-
merce budget, wealth, prosperity and
other conditions prevailing in such
towns. y
TERRITORY: This Association
shall operate in all that part of Texas
situated south of a line extending,
from Sanderson on the west, to Bradv,
thence to Bay City, and also such con-
tiguous territory as may be deemed
wise. As soon a3 the Association
shall be put into full legal effect, it
shall be the duty of the Board of Dir-
ectors to specifically name all counties
in which the new organization shall
operate.
In conclusion let us say that we
have given to this task our very closest
and sincerest endeavor and judgement
and while we have not attempted to
go into detail, it is our opinion Jhat if
the new Association is launched on the
lines above outlined, and does not at-
tempt to digress into foreign fields,
it will not only have a splendid
chance to function and succeed, but
will be an Immense benefit to all of
South Texas. _ -
