COMWUNICATION.
South Bend, Indiana, May 15, 1933.
To The Honorable Council
City of South Bend
South Bend, Indiana.
Gentlemen: It has been your practice to institute Daylight Savings time on Sunday morning
each year.
We wish to respectfully suggest that you give consideration next year to starting
the same on Monday morning instead of Sunday'.
The Ministerial Association of St. Joseph County by official action directed the
secretary to request such consideration by your body. Please understand we have no fault to
find with Daylight savings time, but institut$bg the same on Sunday morning works a hardship
on Church attendance the first Sunday, which we believe could and should be avoided. He care see
no greater handicap to starting the same on Monday, and we do see.severail advantages, in that
engagements for work and otherwise on Monday are not on a voluntary basis, speaking generally.
Church going is a voluntary , and we believe the Churches and their organizations should xeeeis
receive the benefit of Daylight Savings starting on Monday instead of Sunday. J. Samuel
Pritchard , Secretary St, Joseph County Ministerial Association.
On Motion of 0ouncilman Hiss the Communication was accepted and ordered to be placed on file,
also that the City Clerk write a letter acknowledging the communication. Motion carried.
