PLANTS TO BE BACKED
M AH SUFI ELD CHAMBER TO RAISE
$50,000 FOR ENTERPRISES.
Promoter of PTctt Plan Believe More
Industries Will Be Obtained Than
by Booklet Method.
MARSHFIELD. Or.. Dec 9. (Spe
cial.) The Marshfield Chamber of
Commerce has set in motion a scheme
of changing radically the methods
which have been in force for the past
ten years. Instead of depending upon
printed literature the chamber will be
organized as a corporation and proceed
to gather an Industrial fund to encour
age prospective manufacturers In locat
ing here and aid them In financing
their industries.
The final report will not be submit
ted until the first meeting of January
and in the meantime the details will be
worked out by the Judiciary committee
and a special committee of five men
appointed as aides, with Dr. E. Mingus,
who suggested the change, as chairman.
The new idea is a replica of
the Madison. Wis., method. In that city
a corporation was formed and a fund of
150.000 working capital was provided.
The success attending the scheme was
so marked the fund has been turned
several times and Industries have
sprung up which, furnish employment
. to many hundreds.
Leading members of the Marshfleld
chamber, such as President Hugh Mo-
Lain, J. Albert Matson, R. M. Jennings,
Charles P. McKnight, F. E. Conway,
Charles Hall, A. T. Haines, I. S. Kauf
man, J. S. Lyons, C. L Reigard and
others. Indorsed the movement unqualifiedly.
During the discussions Dr. B. Mingus
said the chamber in ten years' activity
bad not secured one industry that could
be traced to the efforts of the chamber.
although the organization had expended
more than 40,ooo.
