Tbi UtaiB of a supplementary cam palm for memberships of the Meilford CBamber of Commerce are now being SrraBged. This campaign Is consid ered aa belbg justified on account of the accomplishments which the Cham tier bag found It possible to attain dur ing the past year. There were approximately fifty citi zens of Mod ford and immediate vicin ity who became members of the Chum ber during the past year, at the same time there was a loss of a similar number through death, removal from the county and by the cancellation of tbe board of directors of those who signed la the heat of the expansion cam pal en who ought never to hare dose so because of their Inability to meet the financial pledge undertaken. The membership at the present time is therefore tbe same as it was a year ago, althongb there are a greater num ber who can be depended upon to make good the financial pledge which they hara undertaken. - Due to the large organization ex pens of a year ago as large -an amount of money waB not available bb Will be during the second year under ire-organlzatlon,' yot there ? are many tiltissew of ibis1, locality who ore Inter ested in furtherine tbe -advancement which haa"Vben made, but are timid about coming' into, the .

Krom the Glasgow, Liverpool, Car diff, Kdinburgb and several other Im portant locals of the National Union of Hallway Men, comes word that the rank and file are challenging the right of the railway men's national execu tive body to call a strike without bal loting by the men. Somo of these' lo cal bodies of railway workers declare the miners' resistance to tbe cuts in their wages which brought about tbe strike in the coal Industry, Is justifi able but they do not consider that tbey have anything to thank tbe miners for and therefore should not be stampeded into a sympathetic walkout.

The prosperity of all of us is very closely linked with the prosperity of such industries. When Oregon people invest in Oregon industries by the simple method of buying their products, they are making an investment which cannot help but bring large returns to themselves. I sincerely trust thnt this campaign to rducate the people of the state into the knowledge that the purchase of Oregon products means a greater and better Oregon for each and every one of us will meet with success from the start. BJ f Ay ASSOC1ATEP INDUSTRIES OF ORFGON 7P2 Oregon Building. Portland miiiiiiiii'W The tallowing Interesting letter has ben received by K. ,M. Hlldreth of Medford and Butte Knl'r from lis grandson, Clyde Hlldreth, 'describing his experiences in Manila and particu larly the feeling regarding Japur. in Vncle Sam's eastern posseKsions: - "Think I have something to write about this time that will be Interest ing, and that Is a description of a trip I took last Sunday. 1 went to a place called Pafrsanjan wllh a friei . which is a small rlty of about 10,000 and about 70 miles from her, and although there are no Americans liv ing there, It is one of the most pro gressive places in the islands. Has electric lights, being one of tho eit-'ht towns In the Philippines with that convenience, an ice plant, clean streets, beautiful houses with iciv few of the bamboo shacks you nee so many of here, nnd Is the only .try town in the Islands, li is in Ligun.i province In the center of tne co- connut raising district, and theie ure miles of cocoanut groves wlih-h are very beautiful. There are many lich planters there, and they send their sons and daughters to tho U. S. to gel college educations, and so that ac counts for their progress. There Is u delightful little hotel, neat and clean as a pin, and they serve excellent mcnls in the American style and verv cheap. Tho big attraction nmd the thing that Americans go there for is tho trip up the gorge to the falls. Pageanjan is in the mountainous region and not flat like Manila, al though wo can see tho nioun tains fromhere. You go up the gorge in a native boat culled a banea. which is like a canoe nnd hollowed out of a log. One passenger with two boys to pnddle. Tho whole trip takes nbout four hours from. Pobkiiiiimi. First. you go along a bcnuti'ul liver with tropical trees on each cide and ail sorts of strange birds and oilier things, and then you oiitv the gorge. t Is only about ns wide r.s tin ordinaiv street in Oakland, and th.? walls are of rock nnd go straight up for -,hi-ee hun dred feet. livery little whltj yiw ti me to rapids and ihe natives jump out ond wade in tho water n , to thi-lr necks and while you stay In the canoe they haul you up tho rapids. Some times they have to jump from rock to rock, and when they .-dlo y u get a thrill. They use a rope tn Home i s tent, one going ahead sod fust-pie it to a rock, while the other holds lli i canoe, and then if they lose the cmoe the rope holds it. There were two places whore we had lo et cut into the. river and step from rc:k lo roi k ns the rapids were too swift and they had to carry the cmoe on tneir hi nds. Needless to say, it is necessary to wear a bathing suit on this trip. After about .four miles, tho gorgo comes to a complete stopand the wnole river omes pouring down over n ilifr for over two hundred feet into n deep pool. The natives say they have never been to the top of tho falls and do not' know what is up there or whoro the river comes from. I mean to find out somo day. There Is some sort of superstition connected with tho place, but 1 couldn t get it straight. The gorgo was certainly formed by an earthquake. as nny placo you look, you ran see that the formation on one side would exactly fit into the other. Then you start back down the river, and coming down you shoot the rapids, nnd cer tainly travel in somo places. The na tive boys mannge the banca wonder fully, turning this way and that, nnd scorn to know every rock In tho river. It is a common thing to upset, but no one ever gets arownea as inese boys nr about half fish and always pull their passengers out of the river, even big, fat Amorican women. I saw lots of smashed canoes on the ocks. Although I got wet I did not upset, but my friend's bancs got swampod in the middle of the longest old and sunk under him nnu ne nnu to swim, Tho hoys got the bout up ind emptied it nnd we went on. It was lucky that I had the camera. Our pictures did not turn out good, ns it was too shady in the gorge, i intend o make tho trip again nnd think it is n placo I would never tiro of. Wo don t know what they will no with field clerks here after next June. t Is rumored that we may be all sent homo then, but I don't think It likely. We henr lots more about war with Japan here than I did in the states, and thero aro frequent articles in the papers about it. The Japs nre hated crv much hero and Jnpnn is very close. Tho Americans here are mnk- ng very few visits to Jnpnn ns they aro not treated well nnd they hold up their pass ports and suspect them nil of being spies. The transports have bud trouble In getting cleared nt Nagasaki If they hnd nny military prisoners aboard, and the Japanese authorities are very nosey. Hut I guess It is not serious.

Pnehhi. where Lynam was stationed before his transfer to tho Chester, ' .Mar SALEM, Ore., April 9. F. W. Wil liams, chairman of the State Public Service commission made the follow ing public statement yesterday: "Thru tbe city attorney's office of the city of Portland I have just received a draft of the petition for rehearing in the Pacific Telephone and Telegraph com pany case about to be filed with this commission, fixing the date for a hearing on the petition April ISth, 1921. "Seldom is a member of a tribunal clothed with judicial duties justified la commenting upon a matter pending, before final order, but personally I feel In this instance that there are misapprehensions as to the law and facts involved that impose upon me the obligation of an explanation. "I believe without reservation that the commission should encourage the greatest latitude in the presentation of this case, thereby inviting every in dustry or class affected to participate. There should be no undue restriction and there should be evory endeavor in order to prevent any inequalities or discriminations. I also would advocate that such measures at the time of re hearing as developments warrant should be adopted by the commission as will properly and effectually pre serve and safeguard the Interests of all parties. Kvery angle of the case should be discussed in detail in order that there may be the fullost under standing of nil the questions involved. "If there were false premises result ing In this order then at the rehearing all the facts should be full presented. This is the fairest and most expedient way for the case to be settled. "On lis face this petition shows that a careful study has been made of the several issues involved and apparently every element bus oeen thoroughly in vestigated with a fixed Idea of pre senting all questions which may havo a bearing upon tho situation, it not only states specifically tho grounds upon which the application Is based, but also clearly and analytically the reasons for a reconsideration. The petition likewise shows facts nnd cir cumstances arising subsequent to the order which might have much weight. Wo shall by the time set have had nearly two months of actual perfor mance under the new rates for our guidance. "If the order is wrong then I am only too glad to have facts or law presented which will justify its cor rection. "In my judgment from such an ex amination as I have been able to make of tho petition it would justify a re consideration of tho case nt tho earli est possible date."
