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.
