AFTER SETTLERS FOR OREGON Portland A comprehensive and far-reaching program for bringing settlers to Oregon from middle west ern states the coming summer was announced by the, Oregon State Cham ber of Commerce last Friday follow ing an all-afternoon session of the executive committee at the Oregon building. This plan, which has been "in the making" for several months, includes the routing of hundreds of homeseekers to Oregon in a body and a personally conducted tour by auto mobile over the entire state. The state chamber will devote its entire energy and resources to the task of putting this plan through effectively the coming spring and summer, it was announced. Briefly, the program adopted by the directors of the chamber is as fol lows: Early this spring agents will be sent to canvass the middle western States, including the " Dakotas, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, Wyo ming, Montana and Utah, for the pur pose of interviewing prospective set tlers who are contemplating a move westward. Advicep received by the state chamber within the past few months indicate that this westward movement will be on a larger scale this summer than in formur years, and these advance agents will gather a large group to move to Oregon on a fixed schedule and a certain date It is believed that a party of nt least 500 prospective settlors could be erouned in this way and brought to Orcfron in a body. Definite assurances have been given by the railroads that they will co-operate in every way with the proposed plan. Homeseek ers' rates, which were suspended dur ing the war, were put into effect again Inst Tuesday, following a con ference of railroad officials at Oma ha. William Mclturray, general pass enger agent of the Union Tacific lines, telegraphed from Omaha on that date informing tne state chamber that the Union Tacific would co-oper ate in every way possible, in the pro posed plan and that the homeseekers' rates had been put into effect on the Union Pacific lines serving Oregon. Taking advantage of these rates, which permit of stop-overs at any point enroute, the party of home seekers would reach Oregon at the most advantageous point. From that point a personally-conducted tour over the entire state by automobile would begin. The routing of the party through the state would be in the hands of a committee who would select the most favorable itinerary, enabling pros pective settlers to investigate the wool and wheat-growing sections, ir rigated lands, fruit districts and all the agricultural and industrial re sources of the state. "The principal object of the trip is to show the middle-western farmer what can be raised in Oregon," ac cording to Secretary Quayle's report, "the cheapness and fertility of the land and the potential resources of the statej in general." "Upon arrival in Oregon, the party would be entertained by the various commercial organizations along the be made for their reception, and each community would endeaver to im press the visitor with the attractions "Many settlers from the middle west have been brought to Oregon through correspondence. Hundreds are preparing to move westward with the coming of summer. By getting them together under the direction and care of representatives of the state chamber and with all arrange ments for their entertainment made can bo added to the state." Various organizations and associa tions such as the newly -formed Ore gon tourist bureau, the farm bureau. h nwm,n State Motor association. H'V VVf,v. the wool growers' and fruit growers associations and the directors of t' 19:25 exposition are expected to par ticipate in the proposed plan. A. L. Tetu, president of the Oregon Stato Motor association, said the proj ect would be backed by his organiza tion "to the limit."
