I. ".hI I lie H.-iald lor nil the news
The following letter from F. S.
Bramwell, vice president of the Ore
gon State Chamber of Commerce has
been sent out to every coi.imerial
body in the state that is ;.ifir;.Ud
with the State Chamber.
Having recently visited SouU:r.u
Central and Eastern OreEjcn, t :T.d
having in a general way clinked cp
the needs and requirements of taose
sections, it is deemed proper at thh
time to acquaint the membeers- of the
Oregon State Chamber of Commerce
of the conditions that obtain.
While general peace and prosperity
are enjoyed by the people in Oregon,
there are a great many business
items that need adjustment, and the
State Chamber is working to this end.
An effort is being made to have
constructed a railroad from Crane to
Bend. This railroad is an absolute
necessity, and the Oregon State
Chamber is working with a "nope of
good results.
We find that all of this territory
is in need of increased and better ir
rigation facilities. The impounding
of the flood water will more than
double the irrigated acreage in Ore
gon and provide homes and support
more than double the present popu
lation. A vast sum. nerhans twentv
million dollars, is necessary to devel
op this feature and the State Cham
ber is applying to our government
with a "nope of getting the funds
necessary.
We find scarcity of labor for ag
riculture everywhere. This fact is
so prominent that it has prompted
an idea with the State Chamber to
advertise in the east and elsewhere
to bring more people into this ex
cellent state of ours. Let me say
that there is no place on earth more
blessed of God than Oregon.
The State Chamber has in hand
the establishment of several mail
routes to care for the people in Cent
ral Oregon. It is working with the
several communities, looking to the
building of better roads, and it is due
to the efforts of the State Chamber
that harmony exists In communities
at the present time to a greater ex
tent than ever before.
We are trying to find out the re
quirements and needs of all com
munities in Oregon, with a view of
giving aid wherever we can. We
want people to know that it Is the di
vine mission of the Oregon State
chamber to encourage and strengthen
small communities whose interests
are just as sacred to us as the more
densely populated territory.
While the cities are generally con
gested the country every where' Is suf-
rering because aufficient labor Is not
obtainable. We will fully explain
this matter to the world, but especial
ly will we Invite people to till the soil.
We expect to continue our visits un
til every city and town in Oregon
has attention. We will Mart our
work in Western Oregon at once. We
are here to suve the state every
where alike. Write to us explain
to ub how we can serve you. We have
accomplished some preat things and
the Oregon State Chamber of Com
merce Is fast becoming the clearing
house of business in Oregon. Please
Join us In this stupendous work.
Yours very truly,
F. S. HUAM WELL,
Vice President.

womankind
