SOUTHERN OREGON MINER, THURSDAY, JUNE 6, 1946 URALS SOUTHERN OREGON MINER eVtf»‘7 Thursday by the SISKIYOU PUBLISHING C O. H>7 East Main Street. Ashland, Oregon. WENDELL LAWRENCE. Editor Entered as second class mall matter to the post office at Ash land Oregon. February 18. l»38. under the act of Congress of March S, 187». * Mr. Healy Can’t Do It All This week a new Chamber of Commerce secretary, William E. Healy, assumes his duties in Ashland. Friday night local merchants and busi ness men will gather at the Elks Temple to meet Mr. Healy and to hear David B. Simpson, a Portland First Citizen, explain what a good Chamber of Commerce can do for a town and what possibly is expected from a Chamber of Commerce secretary. A strong Chamber of Commerce can mean a strong community, with progressiveness apparent on every street corner. A good secretary, however, does not necessarily mean that the Chamber of Commerce will be a strong, live wire organization. The secretary cannot be The Chamber of Commerce. The secretary we believe, should but represent the community, in inter-community affairs, should act as a coordinator in intra-community affairs, and thus should w'ork at a cohesive agent in binding the different desires and needs of the community into a solid mass of unified action. The secretary can but act on the recommendations of the Chamber which he represents. In order to give a secretary the kind of backing essential to his doing a good job the organization behind him must have definite plans and must have them worked out so that the secre tary can have a foundation on which to do his work. It but halt the merchants in thf community are solidly behind the Chamber of Commerce and the other half are not, the entire structure on which the Chamber is built will collapse. Local citizens in their desires to have a better community must work for the good of the entire community rather than for personal pet projects. It s up to every business man in Ashland, every public spirited citizen to take an interest in the doings of his local Chamber of Commerce. That interest could show itself by attendance at Chamber of Com merce meetings. On Friday night every business man in town will have an opportunity to mix with other business men of the community and to meet Mr. Healy. This dinner meeting could be followed by reg ular meetings spaced monthly or quarterly so that the individual bus iness man could have a stronger voice in the affairs of the community and could be kept in closer contact with the activities of the Chamber. Coordination of the various projects which are being handled by local civic organizations in order to prevent duplication and in order to work toward specfic goals, can and should be a responsibility of the Secretary of the Chamber of Commerce. This coordination,, however, cannot be a one-man job. Each civic organization should have a rep resentative whose duties would include meeting with the Chamber of Commerce and the secretary at planning sessions in order to assist in the allocation of comunity welfare projects. Mr. Healy can t do it all. A Chamber of Commerce is not a one- man affair, it s a group of men and women representing their local business interests, who know that by working together they can make Ashland a better place in which to live and do business.
