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.
