Wai ton William the greater Winnipeg Board of Trade which will be the out Giro Seth of the Ama Garnation and joint Campaign of the Board of Trade and Industrial Bureau will be operated along tiie most modern lines Accord ing to the Campaign committee g. N. Jackson chairman. After a Long investigation of the working machinery of tiie most progressive com Mercial organizations in both the United states and Canada the joint committee i of the two organizations unanimously voted for what is known As the Bureau or departmental Type of organization. found that practically All Chambers of Commerce in the cities of am Erica had adopted this form in re cent years and that it in every Case proved a wily Superior to the old form. The greater Board of Trade follow ing organization to a statement Given to the press last night will be formed into depart ments just like a modern business concern. The members will special ize in Board of Trade work according to their likes. Bureaus or depart ments will be headed by experts in that particular line. The new Laa Tion will get entirely away from the one mail idea. Experience in other cities has Long a since proved that it is impossible for one Man to give adequate attention to civic work the securing and maintaining of industries the extending of retail and wholesale Trade traffic and transportation duties looking after agricultural immigration and production Jid finally publicity and the joint committee found that each of these general lines of Tvorik was looked after by a separate Bureau under the most modern plan of organization and that there were specially Trail Ted men for the various departments. It was found in a num Ber of cases one expert could look after As Many As two or three departments depending upon the size of the City and Hie progressiveness of the. Organization. Where a Secre tary must look the work it was found that usually he was overburdened with detail and was unable to make constructive pro Gress in any one Field of activity. Where men were Given departments to specialise in keen rivalry to make the biggest showing of constructive achievement was found. Moat conspicuous Western cities that have adopted this plan for their centralized commercial organizations Are St. Paul Spokane Seattle Portland san Francisco los Angeles Denver St. Practically All Large cities of this country and the states have adopted plan in part. The Mer chants association of , the largest of its kind in the world was reorganized seven years ago under the Bureau plan and its activities in creased in excess of five thousand per cent. The Philadelphia chamber of Commerce adopted the plan. Following a great consolidation Campaign. Vancouver Lias recently voted to supt the Bureau plan As operated in Seattle Ami Spokane. The Vancouver officials have been watching the work of those organizations Over a period As five years and will reorganize at i the close of he present month. This necessity was recognized by the members who adopted it together with the other reports turned in by the 48 for Ottawa june information has been received that the Mili tary control officer at the British consulate requires 48 Vise la necessary on All passports for Neys overseas can .
