MEDFORD AND THE CO
AT irregular intervals for the past ten years, tfie suggestion
has been made that Medford lias too many service clubs,
representing a needless duplication of effort, and' 'that there
should he a combination of them all, affiliated with the Cham
her of Commerce, toward the end of attniniiiK the maximum
civic development, lit the minimum of expense and effort.
' That .the idea was iu sound one,' seemed generally agreed,
hut. while there. has been a great deal of talk, there has until
very .recently been precious little action.
J'" A few days ago, however, a definite step iu this direction
i was made, when the Merchants' Association decided to join
forces with the Medford Chamber of Commerce. Then a move
ment was started with the purpose of the city of Medford
joining, with other municipalities in the formation of a com
prehensive and cooperative, Jackson County health unit.
And on Friday a committee of .12 was named looking to
ward a consolidation of all service clubs, the American Legion,
City Council and Chamber of Commerce, upon a city develop
ment program, i
t . . . .
THAT all these movements mark a constructive step in the
right direction, we believe, no well informed person will
deny. It is merely recognizing iu civic affairs, what for many
years has been recognized and acted upon, in our industrial
affairs. In fact the United States has attained world supremacy
industrially and commercially, largely because of ecodomies,
derived from adopting the principles of cooperation and mass
production. . .'"',. .... .
Instead of a multitude of units, operating iu different parts
of the country separately und competitively, there have been
combinations of kindred industries, acting together , with the
result that a superior article has been produced, at a less cost
and consequently a lower price, which lias umpiestionably
formed the corner stono of American prosperity, the most
gorgeous era of material well-being in the history of the world.
.
WHAT can be done industrially, can also be done eivicly,
politically, socially. Onti might even 'add spiritually.
For it is also generally recogni.ed that there are too many
churches, too many cults and creeds, with a common aim but
petty differences in method. The principle that has evplved
mass production" is the principle the Church needs, consoli
dation, cooperation, fewer churches, better ones, a stronger
spiritual appeal, because a more unified one.
AND 'the elements iu human nature that have checked the
progress in Church unity, that common sense, justifies,
are the same that will threaten tho maximum success in these
above mentioned civic endeavors,
The conservative tradition, narrowness of vision, selfish
ness and what, for want of a better term, might be called
"group pride" Church union has been so slow because, while
most churches have been eager to commend the idea iu general,
few of them have been willing to make those concessions and
incidental sacrifices, . essential to make the idea practically
effective. ,: ' - ' ' '
SO in our proposed service club, health unvt, Chamber of
Commerce effort it is a very simple matter, to hold a
hoop-er-up banquet, slap backs, exchange booster platitudes,
and agree that unity and cooperative efforts are great tilings
It is quite another matter to get enough organizations, partic
ularly the older and well established ones, to make those con
cessions and sacrifices necessary to make such a plan a real
success.
BUT a very cheering clement in the present picture, is the
action of the Merchants' Association. This organization
has not only talked but has acted, taken the first definite
move in tho direction of genuine
in tho cooperative of the whole."
What one organization has
do. And when this sort of spirit is generally displayed, Med
ford will undoubtedly have that cooperative civic organization
best designed to secure tho maximum local development, at
the minimum of expense and effort.
True, son, but before deciding to get along without an
education as Henry Ford did, make sure yon are a Ford.
