Clinton Chamber
Gets Letter From
em
The band and ties of business-
,men throughout the world evi-
dencedd itself today in th„e receipt
by the Clinton Chamber of Com
merce of a letter from the general
sceretary and the acting president
of the Chamber of Commerce of
Jerusalem.*
, Clinton Chamber Manager Geo.
Massey said that many petitions
are received by the Chamber each"
week, but this one drew particu
lar attention from a
aspects |
Included in the letter, whi
was a request; that the Clinton
Chamber give publicity to an' in
ternational problem in the area of
the Red Sea and Saudi Arabia
numtjer
- u-
f
and involving Israel and Egypt,
was a leaflet map of the area to
be used in understanding the
problem of which the letter
speaks.
The native language, where
used in the letter, including the
letter head words of fChamber
of Commerce, Jerusalem," was
translated into English.
Mr. Massey said the letter, dif
ferent from most of its kind re
ceived at the Chamber office, was
an individually typed epistle. Al
though the mission of the letter
will not be accomplished. Mr.
Massey said, bbcause the locaI
Chamber does not wish to become
involved in problems of interna
tional commerce, the letter will
be answered by the local Cham
ber. '
The Jerusalem postal stamp
will be turned over to a loc'al
stamp collector, Mr. Massey said,
and added that th^ letter was of
particular interest to him because
of his present study of the area
involved through participation 'in
a Tuesday evening Bible study
course at 1 Presbyterian college.
