Chamber Urged To Work For School Improvements
Dr. M J Horsch president of West Virginia Tech urged Beckley Chamber of Commerce to lead in promoting better school conditions amid concerns over a wave of union activity in teaching. He said unions belong outside classrooms and education is an investment, not a cost, noting only about one eleventh of potential teachers are in training. E D Armstrong presided and cited chamber projects including road, park, bridge, and hospital plans, with eleven new directors elected.
