A scond factor In the unity of
action in civic matters is the sound
ness of the major programs under
taken during the past few years
by the chamber uf commerce. This
year, the chamber Is ' steering a
course that looks toward land set
tlement, on the very sound pre
sumption that Union county's mate
rial growth must come from the
soli. There is general favor at lis
joint effort with Wallowa county to
