Asia must be reconstruct ed—yes, Asia, Australia, China and the Orient. They are our markets of the future—our great markets. Why bring from the East our commodities and fabri cated materials that we can easily manufacture here in the West? Why not construct these things that will be wanted by these countries?” These words were taken from a speech made by Senator Pat McCarran in a recent speech at San Francisco. In congress a committee consisting of seven sena tors and seven members of the House of Representa tives has been chosen from the group of senators and representatives from the eleven western states to make a study of how to bring industries to the West. Their argument will be based on the coming exten sion of Pacific ocean commerce, the development of cheap electric power on the Columbia, in California and on other western streams, and the opening of new irrigated lands. Our own resources in minerals and timber are immense, and our climatic conditions are unexcelled anywhere else in the United States. We, who live along the banks of the Columbia and adjacent to great power opportunities and resources of all kinds, can easily vision the possibilities that lie at our door. Three fifths of the area of this country lies west of the Mississippi where only one fifth of the national population lives. There is room for thousands more and with the development of manu facturing industries and the oriental trade there will be vast employment that will provide markets for all our products. Horace Greeley’s advice to the young men to “Go West’” is still as good advice as when he gave it dur ing the early days rush for lands and mining fields. The end of the war will make great changes.
