LODGE DIRECTORY DEMOCRATIC CONTROL FOR STATE CHAMBER ERE THE Subscribers to Budget Will Have Voice In Matter of Expenditures. “After I have subscribed to the Ore gon State Chamber of Commerce, what part will I have in the organisation?" This question is frequently heard In connection with the State Chamber ex pansion movement now in progresa. The answer Is that all subscribers will have a voice in saying how the money will be spent. By this and other methods the fundamental demo cracy of the organisation is assured. Of course the Board of Directors,—to which every member is eligible,—will actually expend the funds of the organ isation; but they will be guided in their expenditures by the wishes of the subscribers. To determine what the subscribers want the State Chamber to do, group meetings will be held in every center of population in the state, when all sub scribers will be called together and asked to answer. In writing, the fol lowing questions: 1. What can the Oregon State Cham ber of Commerce do to improve condi tions of opportunities In your own line of business or profession? 2. What do you believe the Oregon State Chamber of Commerce should do to advance the Interests of your own community? 3. What in your opinion as a citizen, is the thing of first importance for the Oregon State Chamber of Com- merce to do for the good of the state as a whole T After these group meetings have been held uuder the direction of the executive committee in charge of the campaign, each district will select one representative to attend a convention with the officers and directors of the Stete Chamber, and the answers to the questions will be formulated into a program of activities designed to unite the entire state on definite tasks. The program of work will also con trol expenditures. When work is start ed on this program the directors will follow their present practice of submit ting questions of wide importance by means of referendum. The Directors represent every city and county in the state. Representa tion on the Board is arranged geo graphically and not based on popula tion. Eastern Oregon is represented by five Directors, Western Oregon by five, Multnomah County by two, and there are three at large; making a total of fifteen, which avoids the possibility of control by any one section. . To sum up: The State Chamber will do what the subscribers themselves say should be done. It will function through a Board of Directors elected by delegates and officers, including an executive secretary elected by the Board. Voting will be done by consti tuent members. Individual subscribers help make up the program of activities and carry them to completion through committee service. WORLD’S POOREST CITY IS MADE RICHEST BY TOURIST TRAVEL From the poorest republic in the world to the richest is what tourists travel did for Switzerland. That little republic practically unknown a century ago is now recognized the world over as a playground for tourists because its scenic beauties were capitalized. Data showjng what the tourist busi- uess has done for Switzerland has been prepared by Alfred A. Aya representing the Swift interests in Oregon and turned over to the Oregon State Cham ber of Commerce to be used in connec- tionwith its state-wide expansion cam paign now in progress. It has a direct bearing on the cam paign by reason of the fact that one of the chief arguments being used by the State Chamber is that cities are spend ing huge sums to advertise their in terests along civic industrial lines. In the article prepared by Mr. Aya showing the economic value of tourist travel he says: “It is estimated that tourists an nually spend more than 1750,000,000 In the United States. Of this sum it is estimated Maine and Colorado receive close to 150,000,000; the New England states close to 5100,000,000; Florida close to 5200,000,000 and southern Cali fornia close to 5300,000,000—while in 1918 It was estimated that Oregon with scenery second to none in the world received less than 55,500,000 from this source. "The best example in the world of the possibilities of the tourist business is Switzerland, with an area of 15,965 square miles, or about one-third larger than Harney county in eastern Oregon. "The Swiss did not consciously begin development of the tourist business until about 100 years ago. starting with the single guest in the spare room until today the little republic has, according to the latest hotel guide, 959 hotels and doubles its population annually through the tourists. It is aaid the little village of Su Moritz has few over fifty native population, but 2700 beds for tourists." Specific cities cited by the State to advertise their possibilities include Chamber that are spending huge sums San Francisco which is now raising a fund of $250.000; Seattle now engaged in raising 5250.000 and New Orleans which put 5100,000 into aa advertising campaign. ueen ESTHER chapter No. 101. o.
