It was consid- ered that the public and particu- larly the families of service men would be interested in the preser- vation of such record, and that contributions might be left at the stores of M. H. Needham or Dick Eddy, With any suggestions that: might be offered to perfect the records. Walter Nash, E. F. Mar- tin and Eddy are in charge of the project for the Planning group. Neil Zintheo reported on pro- gress of the Planning Board, that it had organized with full person- nel of 15 representing civic and community groups, and had start- ed on the Memorial Board plan and collecting the complete list of men and women of Mason County in service. Another meet- ing of this group will be called by S. B. Anderson, chairman. Charles Somers called attention to the danger of losing Grapeview postoffice, the inspector having made such recommendation, and of the growing importance and conVenience of this postoffice. Af- ter discussion it was ordered to take up the matter with the pos- tal department and urge the con- tinuance of the postoffice as it is. Grape Prices Mr. Somers also urged some ac- tion by the Chamber to contest the order of the OPA listing the Island Belle as a Concord or “slip-skin” grape limited to mar- ket use and setting a ceiling price based on the Eastside Concord which would eliminate the Island Belle, a distinct Mason county product, from the local wineries willing to pay the growers a bet- ter price in order to encourage the growers and supply their lsource of living. Rudy Werberger also explained the winery situa- tion, and how this year’s crop was limited and next year‘s outlook was sour. President Carlson was directed to appoint a committee to, look into the ruling in sup- port, and try to secure a fair deal for the local grape. The prospect of Shelton losing the pMason County Ration Board if better local canditions were not soon provided was dicussed, in- cluding some plan of having the OPA pay rental for the building and of the city and county find- ing ways of remodeling the pres- ent quarters and furnishing heat to make the volunteer workers comfortable, since no other suit- able location has been found. On motion the Chamber voted to under-write the improvement part to extent of $200 in the emer- gency, until a source of public revenue can be arranged.
