CONFERENCE NEAR ROCKS (Continued from page one) If the conference broke up before the premiers replied lo the German re quest the proposals probably would not b presented nt all. LOCAL SUPPORT Prof I. K. Vinlng of Ashland was the principal speaker at the Cham ber of Commerce forum luncheon this noon and was appointed by. Chair man H. L. Wallher to represent the Medford Chamber of Commerce nt the next meeting of the State Cham ber of Commerce, of which Mr. Vinlng ' a member. Mr. Vinlng explained the plan of the State Chamber of Commerce to ! ralBe iou.uuu.wou for the solution UI lno prooiems oi cuuperauve Iand wttlement and publicity In tho state of Oregon. Over half the 1 $130,000 quota for the present year has been raised according to Mr. Vinlng who explained that the city of Portland had originated and de veloped the Idea and that it should be supported by every section of the state as the money will be spent In developing every section. As soon as tho total fund Is raised experts from other states will be em ployed to make a comprehensive oconomic survey of tho entire state so Hint prospective residents may know just exactly what Oregon has to offer, where to go for certain kinds of industries, how much to pay for land in certain districts and other definite valuable Information. Experts will also be employed to study the marketing problems and the publicity problems from Impartial viewpoints Just as the land Bettle- ment problem will bo conisdered. The people of the different districts 0f the stale will have a fair valua- tion placed upon their lands and the organization handling the state de- velopment program will recommend the size of the tracts to be purchased new comer must be done away with. Tho troublo with the west has, In a large part been due to the fleecing of the new comer and the fleeced new comer's story of the mothods used after ho has left the locality of the fleecing operations. A square deal for the settler is the most Im portant requlslto of thn land settle ment problem according to the speaker. Following the survey by the ex perts the resident members of tho Stato Chamber of Commerce and the members of other representative bodies of thn state composing a su preme council will direct the uso ofi the funds to bo spent in state devel opment according to tho advice of the exports. That there Is an element In Portland which works for no mo tive other than a selfish ono and can bcc no place beond the city lim its of Portland is a fact according to Mr. Vinlng, but this element Is not the ono that Is backing the driip for the money now being raised In Portland to be spent all over the state. That southern Oregon and all oth er sections of Oregon cooperate with tho progressive broad guage element In tho metropolis Is absolutely neces sary to tho success of the plan. Fall uro to ally horself with tho progres sive element would constltuto Med ford's support of the selfish clement In tho opinion of Mr. Inlng. Soveral excellent numberB which wero much enjoyed wero rendered by tho Christian church quartet con sisting of Millard, Waldron, Scougull and Klrkpatrlrk.

He referred to the need of an other water pipe lino across Hear creek to connect with certain lines of the west side system, whfeh had UH-t with tho approval of the old coun cil, and argued that thn proposed new lino should be of 10-inch pipe in stead of 8-inch pipe, and asked the council to ponder well on this im provement, which he said would mure than Justify the expense Involved. It developed that Superintendent Davis had already ordered the 1H00 feet of pipe for tills proposed Im provement, in ordep to get it before the raise In prices on pipe went Into effect. The council , approved this purchase by Mr. Davis.
