Forsgren, chairman of the merchants committee of the Chamber of Commerce, pointed out today. Its the merchants' committee's "Blue Card system that has kept the high pressure" solicitors out of the stores. The system is aimed to give this same protection from salesmen who are so skilled at their business they can sell a person something whether he wants and needs it or not, Forsgren said. Any resident of Brigham City is invited to ask any and all solicitors to see their Blue Card.' Anyone is then perfectly justified, in our committees opinion, in refusing to listen to a sales story until the salesman can produce and show' the merchants' committee Blue Card. the Blue Card, he explained, the salesman's product or proposition as a bar gain or a worthwhile product, but it does indicate that the Chamber has investigated the proposition, and that it has found no basis for suspecting it VOLUME 53, NUMBER 67 of being grossly overpriced or fraudulent. "The Blue Card system isnt Forsgren said, but there are crews that come into town and take out thousands of dollars from the residential district!, without acquiring the Blue Card. Residents who regret their purchases could save this money by demanding to see the Blue Card before they listen to the sales story. Any business or organization, either in Brigham City or from elsewhere, before soliciting or r selling in Brigham City should apply to the secretary at the Chamber of Com- merce offices for Blue Card" Windows To Be Goss And Harding A Peach Days Enlist In Army Feature Again Master Sergeant Harvey Ward rop, army and air force recruiting officer for Box Elder county, announced today that two more local boys have enlisted in the United States regular army.
