Iowa Chamber of Commerce Sees Recovery Amid Hard Times
Des Moines June 23. Iowa slowly recovers from 1921 depression and stringency as J W H McCord portrays the state as a sturdy automobile still in repairs. He calls 1921 a year of wreck and readjustment, urges closer business cooperation, and notes the chamber’s progress including a speakers bureau and public surveys. Over 100 representatives from 50 civic welfare groups attend the annual meeting with officer elections to follow.
