Chambers Gives Outline Of Policy Tor Development "Eugene, A Home City" Will be Stressed During Coming Year. EUGENE CHAMBER OFFICERS Frank L, Chambers, president. W. W. Calkins, vloe-srealdmt. B. B. Brundage, treasurer. Board of directors: M ah Ion H. Harlow, CaH Q. Washburn, W. K. Newell, Frank X. Scnaefera, Marlon Veatoh, L. I Qraham, Joseph H. Koke and L. D. Pleroe. Prond of Its record for the past year and enUinsiaetie over the out look for the coming- twelve months the Eugene chamber of commerce changed leadership at the annual meeting last night with the election of officers and directors to sorve until September 1023. Frank L. Chambers, new president of the chamber, on assuming offico announced that a comprehensive pro gram ot db?elopmeot for Eugene and Lane county was one of the major policies that he would endeavor to complete during his term as head of the organization. Outlines Plans. Bevars of the outstanding points of the plana for the progressive de velopment of the community as out lined by Mr. Chambers were: "Eugene Is a nice place In which to live. There la sot another city In the vest that offers the environment that Eugene has aa a home city," said Mr. Chambers. "We must capitalize this ; asset There are many people that r can be attracted to Eugene solely on , tiie factor the-t here Is where they may reside In pleasant and congenial surroundings, enjoy life, and become a citizen of a growing commnntty. t Just making a living is not always : the motive that impels .people to seek - a now place of residence. A real home In a home city should be stressed as ' one of the publicity points in any pro gram of thin community." Rains Help Out "A good place in which to farm." . "Here in Lane county we have some of the finest bottom land in the country. The rains, held by some as a detriment, are one of the greatest advantages that we have and this fact should be pointed out. Market gar dening at present only in Its Initial singes here should bs fully developed end I hope to see the gnrden pro duct of Lane Increased many fold. "The Clear Lake watr projet" "1 will ndvocnte that the chambor sup- - port the 'Clear Lake water project as I believe that It will bs advantage to Kugeno nnd Lane county." - "Mountain and ocean resorts" "T.nne county can be made the mecca ' for many tourists nnd ths playground resources Bhould be prominently held to the front ns one of the necdB for the coming year. A system of good roads to keep pace with the develop ment of mountain and seashore re sorts Is needed. Biltcoos lake in my estimation Is one of ths potejjtinl beauty spots and summer resorts if ths Northwest, but It must be de veloped and this tnnst have the back ing of the people of Lane county. "Bnow sports" "We are within 80 miles of yenrronnd snow. This la an attraction that has received 'very little attention by those who are our strongest boosters for a bigger and better commnntty. with the pav ing of the McICenxie highway a two hoars drive from this city will placo the summer visitors In an area where all kinds of winter sports can be en Joyed. , '''"Co-operation" "A program nch tin l aa I hope to see carried through by only the Eugene chanmer depends abeo Ulueilotely npon the generous support of Cnlthe people of the county and It is set bmy hope and conviction that this will pnt tbe forthcoming." field.

Rorer, president of the "Bank of Commerce, paid a glowing- YY tribute to the accomplishments of ths officers and directors riurlno 1 tho past year. "The best year In , Its history was the comment of Mr. Rorer In re-viewing the many plane that were completed by the organ isation. . Particular reference was made to Carl f. Washburne, retiring- presi dent of the ohamber, by the local bank president, "linrter the direc tion of Mr. Wnshhurne the oham (her has bad a most eonntniotlva 'year. Ths executive ability, and leadership of Mr. Washburne were In a meanure responsible for the success of many of the undertak ings of the chamber." Mr, Rorer said. The clearing off of the deficit of last year with a present substan tial cash balunce on band, and the Mr- Increase In membership were mentioned ns Indications or the suc cens att.ilned by the outgoing presi dent. A rising- vote of tt.anka was tendered Mr. W'HiOthurna at the dorm of Mr. Itoror's talk.

Mr. Washburne Octobt said. A new home for the chamber Is a move that should be considered vvss atso suggested. ' la a brief summary of the major Air Fleet Chief In A Precious Garment World Girdlers Tell The mystery of why lieutenant Lowell Smith, commander of - the world flight, appeared in Seattle mi nus bia plutinum decorated Hum Brown jacket has been solved. He left It banging in a closet at tho home of Karl Simmons, his host in Eugene, who was chairman of recep tion plana and toastmaster at the Sat urday night banquet tendered in hon or of the sextette of army officers who brought the planes around. This coat was presented to Smith by the Seattle Chamber of Commerce upon the departure of the trio, each of the others receiving one decorated with gold. And he forgot to bring it home nt the finish "It was Just because the boys real ly relaxed here,", snfd Simmons. "Sun day morning wo bad breakfast in our shirt sleercv real honey yon know Pnd when it came time to go Lowell just slipped on his flying clothes and forgot to put the coat Into his grip." Simmons rushed the precious gar ment to Vancouver by train and it wns taken north by airplane. Tbe trio of intrepid pilots were en tertained by Simmons Sunday morn ing after s refreshing night's sleep at his bouse. This was the first time the boys really talked, for Kugene sort of be longs to Smith, who was flying forest patrol during 1020, '21 and '22. The laBt words Smith yelled at Simmons as he took off were "Oet your onbin ready for I'm coming back for that deer hnnt., Simmons bus prepared a cabin up In tbe McKenzio river and when Smith gets back he is going up there. Gun to Be Engraved. Simmons' gun which Smith carried around the sphere Is being engraved and win be Simmons' most prized sou venir. The rifle was a bit dusty, but in good shape. During breakfast tbe fliers told many stories of the fligbt which hod escaped the ears of questioners along the route. "There's one thing," remarked Lowell, a serious expression on his bronzed face, "Wade's accident was a pathetic event. It was not his fnult that he lost his ship, and we ain't pass It by lightly." "How about the game, did you real ly see those beasts in the jungle?" accomplishments of the chamber during1 his term of office, Mr. Washburne mentioned: The physi cal connection botween the 8. P. and the O. V3, railroads; tho now mtU-ln-transit rail rata; a biff membership Increase; and tbe plac ing of the finances on a firm basis. In a report onVinnnces 1. Kugeno Chadwlek, secretary, showed thnt the chamber Income during . the past year has been $870.19, not Including the general development fund by whloh the greater part of the chamber activities are handled. The report on tho development fund wlU be made nftor January 1. No Smoking Order Is Lifted; Small Fire Is Reported BEND, Ore., Sept. 30. The no- smokiug ordinance in tho Deschutes nationul forest has been lifted by George II. Cecil, district forester, ac cording to II. L. Plumb, local forest supervisor. The recent rains and snows have lessened tho firo hazard to such nn extent thnt It is possible to permit hunters to smoke, Mr, Plumb says. Tho officials ruport that hunters have cooperated to nu appreciable degree In hooping this rule. . A small fire occurred near Sinters yesterday, but is now under control and no serious trouble is anticipated from lt In some sections of the yel low pine stnnds, the fire hnznrd in still acute, Mr. Plumb said today, and care must be taken by those going in to tho forest. The Fort Itock district Is especially dry, ho Bays. Elk Herd to Meet .

Kven the rundown and oklnny arrowniips, who ought to take cod llvor oil, because It really Is tho greatest vltamlne food and builder of henlthy flesh In tho world, will feel extromoljr Joyful when thoy rend this welcome news. Of course, doctors hsve been proscribing; cod liver oil In tab lets under another name for sev eral yean, but it U on! of late Hurry; Forgets Jacket - Left as Ships Leave Of Events Of Journey "No," replied Wade, "that's all bunk. They were there no doubt, but it must have been a press agent who said wo saw 'em." Lt. Arnold, who flew with the com mander, remarked that "they said the desert wns hell, but that frozen north country Is far worse with its peaks, mirages end ice everywhere." "Yea, and when a fellow fs out six hours," added Smith, "without food or water and doesn't know whether he will get any when he i.mds, well, it's Just like war. Then you sort of gft used to it nnd 'let her bnk you Just feel kayo although you ran hard ly move. Yea, it'a a great life." Simmons asked about the English birdman ns they prepared to go out to the field for the hop-off. "You enn tell the world he's got th rcnl stuff in him," stated Smith, "McLaren is the best sport I ever met. He is a real Englishman, When we went on be yelled 'Well, boys, you beat me, but I'm going to bo second. "Walt until next year!' nnd I hope he makes it!" Labrador Trip Hard. Tbe hardest part of the trip, they told, wns the Labrador landing. Their first intimation of land wns the broken ice, then huge bergs, and then fog enveloping mists that shut off their view. They were fly ing close together when suddenly a grent stnrk object, opnque, menacing, swelled up beforo them. Smith duck ed to the right, nnd nelson to the left. Then Smith found a hole in the mist, a shaft where the sun was pour ing down. Through it he snw the ship nt nnchor where they were to land. They had made it! He ducked down through it and came to rest, while .Nelson flew out to sea. "That forty minutes I waited for Nelson," snld Smith, "seemed like 400 yonrs, but soon with a roar ho came hack nnd right down tbe very hole I dropped through." 'That's where you lost that silk scarf," added Arnold, "nnd yon thonght you were out of luck, then I told you Simmons gave you two nnd Inter wo dug up the woolen one. The silk one went past me likt a soft bul let in that blizzard." Smith had used the silk to clean tho anew from his goggles nnd the heavy wind carried It nwny. T Despite tho threatening rain, Lieu tenant Lloyd Harnett, commander of (lie forest air patrol, hopped off for Crissey field. Sun Frnncisco, this morning under official orders from tbe nlr patrol. The other big Dellnvilnnd airplane was piloted by Sergeant Kel ly. Tho remainder of the pntrol men nnd Mrs. ltnrnelt are leaving for San Frnnciseo by train. Despite several sntnll accidents, the :ntrol has been unusually successful this season, said Lieutennnt Harnett before he left. Although one of the plnnen had Its tail burned off when the two big hangars went up in flames, m and Lieutenant Harnett wrecked another when flying in the dark nnd smoke on Nntionol Defense dny, tho plnnes saved many times the cost of these accidents in forest land, through "upotting" fires that could not bo seen, even by lookouts. "It is Iiupnssihle to tell lmw many fires we roported," suid Lieutennnt Itnrnett, "until tho senson's report is compiled from our weekly reports to the nir headquarters In Frisco. With out doubt there will be a forest pa trol here next yenr, but it is impos sible to predict who .will be its com mander, or who the personnel will be. Tint It is a positive fact thnt the gov ernment is thousands of dollnrs nbend by the esnliUslunent of n patrol in this thickly-forested section duriur, tho fire season."
