Some of the greatest offenders are the state, county
and city administrations. Why such a condition exists we
cannot understand. If our state is to grow, our industries
must grow and for our industries to grow they must be
patronized. Our neighboring states to both the north and
south have closed their doors to Oregon materials to be
used in public works. Yet Oregon officials permit these
outside states to furnish the materials for our public im­
provements.
The state highway commission is having a new bridge
constructed at Grants Pass and one at Gold Beach, over
the Rogue river. In the construction of these bridges there
is required much lumber and much concrete and stone.
It* was discovered at Grants Pass that the contract had
been let to a California company for the cement, or at
least their bid was being given very favorable considera­
tion. The lumber to be used also might have been pur­
chased from out-of-state mills. That was what aroused
the Grants Pass chamber of Commerce. They felt that
those materials could be purchased at Oregon plants as
cheaply and would also prove as satisfactory as the foreign
product. They are leaving no stones unturned to get only
home produced materials and labor used on their bridge.
There are sawmills at Glendale, Grants Pass and Medford
which could furnish the lumber and there is a Cement
factory at Gold Hill which could furnish as good or even

W e wish to compliment the tira n ts Pass Cham ber < t
Comrherce upi n their stand in regard to the use of Oregon
m ade m aterials and Oregon labor upon state projects.
Surveys have been made in several points in this state and
it has been found th at much f the m aterials now being
used e< nies from outside the s.ate to the detrim ent of < nr
home factories. This means that foreign payrolls are
being built up by Oregon money w hen In me owned and op­
erated plants are as v. el! and e . en better qualified to handle
the business.
In this state are several factories and mills which are
struggling to make their business prosper and add to the
payrolls, to aid in the grow th « f the country and build up
a g reater m arket for our raw products. Yet these same
mills and factories m ust stand by and see the same prod­
ucts shipped in from neighboring states and used when
they, them selves could produce as good—maybe even b e t­
te r m aterial.
