Town Of Barnstable Building Figures Show Increases Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce in its latest bulletin asks the ques- tion , "What About Business in 1961TV Following is the Chamber's comment: "The voters authorized a $25,000 increase in the County advertising fund—but this is a permissive legislation. Our County Commis- sioners may or may not accept. And. If they do accept , the Legislature must approve any Increase request- ed by the commissioners. "Action on County budgets Is generally delayed until May or June —or even September. This means the Increase if granted cannot help much in the 1961 Summer Season. "This situation will come as u surprise and disappointment to many Cupe Codders. The Chamber's Directors warned of this In 1958, when thoy urged an Increase In the budget. They pointed out then that the State 's advertising budget was shaky and that we should act lo- **Hy to fortify ourselves. This warning was ignored. £ome locally elected officials scoffed and were successful in delaying action. "As predicted the State budget was slashed and In 1960 our busi- ness from this source dropped an estimated $3,700,000. "The attitude of our new Gov- ernor is not fully known yet—i f he will recommend the budget be re- stored to the 1957-1958 level it could help us materially—providing of course tho Legislature accepts his recommendations. "Gov. Furcolo made the recom- mendation but was overruled in 1959 and 1960. We are in a highly competitive Industry—one in which promotion and advertising plays a dominant role—and our position 1B not clear at this time. "•So keep posted—our Commis- sioners must request and the Legis- lature must act. Until then we can only limp along at the 1958 pace, while our competitors are turning on the pressure.
