Book excerpt: Excerpt from Commercial Organizations: Their Function, Operation and Service The literature devoted to organized community promotion along economic and civic lines, as exemplified through local commercial bodies in the urban centers of the United States, has been found to be extremely meagre and unsatisfactory. For the most part it has been fragmentary in form and has provided nothing in the way of a comprehensive and helpful treatment of the subject. With the growing tendency on the part of communities towards material and social progress through collective effort this dearth of instructive literature has become increasingly manifest. The theorist, it is true, has spoken variously and voluminously on the subject, but the man who has travelled the road of experience in this domain has thus far remained silent. At least his voice has not gone beyond a limited range to the larger constituency which stands ready to listen and profit by his counsels. The lessons afforded by actual service have been exchanged by commercial secretaries in somewhat restricted circles. But, here authoritive voices have enunciated the fundamentals that must be observed, the methods that must be employed, and the results that may and can be achieved. Splendid studies have been made by those actively identified with successful commerce bodies, but their observations and conclusions have thus far remained imbedded in the routine of convention proceedings, and hence have not been readily accessible to the larger class of students in this field of activity. They have brought guiding principles and policies into hold relief, constructed the organization machinery to its last detail, outlined the mode of its operation, and established the relations that must be observed by the active factors and forces. They have touched the mainsprings of organization success, and created the modern commerce body as defined and interpreted in American urban centers.
