Comprehensive and Exhaustive Scheme to Promote Products . and Agriculture Adopted. Everything comes from the soil I una ine producer is or me nrst im portance In planning state develop ment. This is the foundation stone upon which the Portland Chamber of Commerce plans to build a greater Oregon, according to a statement made yesterday by O. W. Jlielke, president of the Chamber. Prosperity of the man on the land is paramount to everything else, in bringing an agricultural state siren as Oregon to the limits of its pos sibilities, Mr. Mielke said. With that object, an extensive programme of development, with the good of the whole commonwealth in view, has been planned by committees of the Chamber, and these plans now are being elaborated in detail. programme la Comprehensive. For a year and a half there has been consistent work under the di tection of the organization heads, looking toward a work for a greater Oregon; one that would be unself ish in that efforts would not be directly alone to Portland's gain, but the essence of enlightened self ishness, because as the state pros pers so will Portland advance, ac cording to Mr., Mielke. Plans have been sufficiently ci ystalized that a statement can be made of the scheme. It- embraces la.nd settlement, advantageous mar keting arrangements for the pro dc:er. encouragement of tourist travel, publicity of a favorable na ture for Oregon and other aids to state building, all co-ordinated into an effective effort to bring about a well-rounded development. State Development Vital. "A &tate development work, es sentially built upon the prosperity of the producer, now on the land, yet embracing In Its details a multi tude of efforts that are calculated to advance state prosperity other wise, is a brief of the plan which the Chamber of Commerce is get ting ready to offer," said Mr. Mielke. "We want land settlement work done more colonists but hold that this is most effective where weaving in with the duty of directly aiding the settler now on the lands of our territory. "We beiieve in the maximum tourist travel, because that leaves wealth and many good new resi dents in the state, but the publicity for and handling of tourists will have the largest value when this work is closely associated with other work to make the resident of the state receive more for his products. Producers Mut Prosper. "In a nutshell, our plans, which are now emerging from committees, recognize that the producer of Ore gon must be made more prosperous as, the great background for in creasing state population and wealth. No one line of effort will accomplish all that is needed. It must be a comprehensive pro gramme. There must be co-ordination between all agencies, recogni tion of a few fundamental princi ples, honest help to the man on the, land and a modern, progressive plan that will meet the intelligent, ag gressive methods of other western communities that play no single string nor confine themselves to any single line of effort. "This development work changes swiftly. Methods effective a few years ago are obsolete. A western state to keep within sight of its sis ters must bo up and moving on modern lines every month of the year; Preliminaries Are Studied. "More than a year and a half ago we began planning a state develop ment programme. It was found necessary to send careful students out for observation .of similar work being done elsewhere. Months elapsed in gathering data, and some more months in arranging and adapting them to Oregon condi tions. We have studied marketing methods for the producer, land set tlement nnd colonization, publicity, travel and recreation plans, etc. We felt that in opening a work of such transcendant moment to Oregon we must be careful and thorough. "Our committees are getting plans crystalized for final approval. In the last stages of the draft, these plans will segregate the work into three general divisions marketing, land settlement and publlcitiy. Marketing Ia Paramount. ' "It has been borne in upon all of us, the further we have gone into state development work, that mar keting Oregon products is-the most vital duty in the programme, and must be kept foremost. Miscellane ous , publicity will not accomplish thi. Floods of travelers and tour ists alone will not attain the end. There must be a deep-seated, thor oughly organized work to secure a better and more profitable market lor tne Oregon producer. "This will require the services of the best minds of the state. It will not be accomplished In a week or a year, but will become possible as the thinking -people of the state get aown to fundamental modern principles of handling this problem. "Land settlement work must be carried on constantly, especially after the- condition of the present producer Improves, but this duty of co-ordinating the marketing work for the present producer and bring ing in new people is patent 4tcvery one who has gone into the subject carefully."
