Following the organization of the General Committee, the first duty of
its Chairman should be the arrangement for meetings of the Committee--
or its individual members--with the various City Officials, and Civic
and Commercial Organizations in the community, to explain the Plan for
a _Better Homes_ Demonstration and to secure their endorsement and
active support.

Those endorsing and supporting the Demonstration may be known as
Patrons and should comprise the following:

The Mayor Commissioner of Education (or Superintendent of Public School)
Publishers or Owners of Local Newspapers
Presidents of Important Women's Clubs
President of Chamber of Commerce Agricultural Home Bureau, etc.
President of Real Estate Board
President of Rotary Club
President of Kiwanis Club
Presidents of Building & Loan Associations
Presidents of other Business or Trade Associations related to the
Home Building and Furnishing Industries.

Churches should also be asked to support the movement.

Additional Patrons may properly be selected from prominent citizens of
the community, who are noted for their public spirit and are not
included in the above list.

The two essentials for a successful _Better Homes in America_
Demonstration are genuine co-operation from all local civic, financial,
commercial and educational interests, and full and extensive publicity
