Boycott of Paper Urged by Several City Businessmen
Several Elyria merchants in the Better Business Men's Club plotted a boycott of the Chronicle Telegram over alleged bias toward Lorain ads and the paper’s stance on gas and electric rate hikes. Some directors claim the paper used the Chamber of Commerce name to push a higher vote and tried to suppress news, while others saw no risk in open support for the paper. The plan, discussed at the annual meeting, may include individual circulars or an Amherst anti sheet, with specifics to be announced.
