CHAMBER EXPECTS
SPIRITED CONTEST
Two Tickets Placed in Field
for Board of Directors.
H. B. VAN DUSER ON BOTH
W. T. Whitcomb and Otto W. Mielke
Also Favorites; Independent Can
didates Backed by 133 Members.
Indications are that there will be a
spirited contest over the election of
seven directors of the Portland Cham-J
ber of Commerce at the annual elec
tion which is scheduled for Friday
evening, April 30, in accordance with
the provision of the by-laws of the
body. The directors of the chamber
yesterday received the nominations
submitted by the nominating commit
tee of candidates to fill the seven
places on the board, and an independ
ent ticket was also filed with the
executive secretary by petition bear
ing the signatures of 133 prominent
members. The constitutional provi
sion is that in order to place inde
pendent candidates before the mem
bership there must be at least 100
signatures to the petition. The two
tickets are as follows:
Regular nominees W. D. Whitcomb,
H. C. Huntington, H. B. Van Duzer,
O. W. Mielke, E. G. Crawford, C. W-.
Hodson, E. H. Sensenich.
"Progressive ticket" H. B. Van
Duzer, W. W. Payne. Otto W. Mielke,
Fred H. Strong. W. D. Whitcomb, Coe
A. McKenna, Roy T. Bishop.-
Many Kxrrllrnt Men Available.
The nominating committee appoint
ed by the board of directors was com
posed of J. II. Dundore chairman;
R. B. Bain, W. P. Strandborg. Edward
EhTman, Jesse Currey and W. G.
McPherson. It held several meetings
behind closed doors at which exhaust
ive consideration was given to the
names of business men submitted as
possible nominees. Because of the
excellence of material from which to
choose it was difficult to agree -upon
the names to be selected, according
to the report submitted. In their report-
to the directors they said it was
the aim to select candidates that
would meet with the approval of the
membership, as well as being repre
sentative of various interests and men
of public spirit with inclination to
do the utmost for community ad
vancement. The committee tenders to
the board its services at any time to
suggest names to fill vacancies, should
any occur during the year, because
of Its familiarity with men of worth
who have agreed to accept the duties
of the office if elected.
Battle Is Over Four Candidates.
It is noticeable that the contest
will be over the election of four of
the seven members. H. B. VanPuzer,
president of the chamber; W. D.
Whitcomb and Otto W. Mielke are
included on both tickets, so the elec
tion battle will wage over the other
four candidates on each ticket.
The nominations will be officially
published in the bulletin of the cham
ber this week, which comes from the
press on Friday. The election takes
place during the last six days pre
ceding the date of the annual elec
tion and the board will designate an
officer to have charge of the ballot
and check off the names of eligible
members as their votes are cast. The
vote will be counted by the direc
tors or an official designated by them
at the annual meeting, when the re
sult will be announced.
The petition nominating the inde
pendents was headed by a statement
saying: "Confident in our belief that
the best interest of our organization
11 be served by allowing the mem
bership some choice in the matter of
electing directors, we respectfully
submit the following names ' as our
candidates for the office of director
of the Portland chamber, to be voted
on at the coming annual meeting.
We shall name this the 'progressive
ticket' to distinguish, it from the
other."
VIEW ASKED OF CHAMBER
Question of Public Works Depart
ment Submitted to Vote.
The United States Chamber of Com
merce has submitted a referendum to
its members on the question of the
proposal to establish a department of
public works as one of the executive
departments of the government. The
chamber submitted the question to
special committee which recommend
ed that the matter be submitted to
a vote of the membership, without
any recommendation as to the Jones-
Reavis bill before congress that em
bodies a specific proposal for its
establishment. The directors of the
Portland chamber have the matter
before them for consideration.
The proposition is submitted in the
form of three questions submitted on
a duplicate ballot, as follows:
1. Shall a department of public
works be established by the national
government?
2. Shall a department of public
works be . established by a suitable
modification of the existing depart
ment of the Interior excluding there
from the non-related bureaus and of
fices and by change of name from
