ASHLAND, OREGON, FRIDAY, JANUARY 31, 1941
Rev. Galloway B lied
for Revival Here
C-C GROUP TALK
REFINANCING
Earl Reynolds, executive secre
tary of the Klamath county cham
ber of commerce for many years
ami a widely recognized worker in
this field, met with a group of
Ashland chamber of commerec
members at an informal luncheon
Monday noon.
Reynolds spoke briefly on the
organization of the Klamath coun
ty chamber, but for the most part
discussion centered around the
posible financial reorganization
necessary here after the almost
certain loss of registration fees.
The speaker stated that this loss
should not be viewed with undue
alarm, for in many places the re-
girtration has actually proved
costly and at it* beat is not the
asset it might first appear to be.
One of the faults charged against
the legistration was that it forced
chamber employees to spend their
time time on routine clerical work
that might better be spent on con
structive community projects. In
view of these facts, Reynolds
pointed out that even though it
might be necessary to increase
membership dues or introduce a
budget fund, the eventual benefits
to the community would more
than balance such an increase.
Members present were unified
in their support of chamber of
commerce work and enthusiastic
ally in favor of any plan which
might make it more effective in
upbuilding the community.

Argentine Pears To
Be Limited In 1941
A limitation of 300,000 boxes of
pears shipped to the United States
from Argentina has been arrang
ed for the current season, accord
ing to word received at Oregon
State college from the Federal
Marketing service.
Last season
about 265,000 boxes of pears were
shipped to this country and Ore- .
gongrowers have been conducting
a campaign to cut off or curtail |
such shipments this season.
The normal shipping season for
Argentine pears of the Bartlett
vareity ends about April 1. The
announcement just received states
that the 300,000-box limitation is
for the period between now and
that date. Some late varieties are
available for shipment after April
1, but reports indicate that the
crop of late pears relaUvely short.
Action just taken by the Ar
gentine government is expected to
help stabilize the pear market in
the United States during the next
few months and will, therefore,
be of benefit to the pear growers
of both countries, according to
the Federal Marketing service.
