MCHStl EPltprYIM. W Us5()ClATIf IS MEDFORD HOSTILE WKILVVK received an unsigned coiniiiuniciil ion coniiiinil iii'r upon tin retirement of the D. Williiuns Kermite rohiijiiiy, from a ninu who elaims he recently estaldishetl a small industry here and has had a similar experience. He says he employs only three people, hut if he could nv a reasoiiahlw rate for power he would employ 10, and that if the Chamher of Commerce would givt him the assistance lie de serves he would double th;it payroll. We don't print unsigned eoinniuni alionst ami seldom eon sider them, but, in view of the announcement and this "follow up," we think it about time to call such unwarranted charges. We follow the activities of the Chamber of Commerce pretty closely and, while it is not perfect, we believe it is one of the best organizations of the hind in the state. It is on the job every hour of the day, in its effort to develop (his. city, and is particularly active in securing new payrolls and supporting those we have. As to power rates, as previously stated in this column, we believe that power rates which this paper pays are too high, and some time ago we registered a protest with the state public service commission, ami .vailed the matter to the attention of the local Copeo officials. These rates, however, have been established by Hie state commission, not by the power company, and the former in ils report, maintains the existing rates are fair and reasonable, giv ing comparative figures to sustain Ibis contention. This contention may or may not be true, but we do know this, that the power rales in Mrdford are considerably less than those in Cottage drove, as was determined by the writer's re cent visit to that city with a committee to secure the establish ment of u cold seasoning lumber plant in Med ford. We further have the nssiuaiM'O of local Copeo officials that they have rec ommended lower rates in certain classifications. ' So we do not agree with the Williams pronouncement, nor with our anonymous correspondent, No organization, private! or public, is above improvement, but the local Chamher of Com- j meree, in our opinion, is far above the average, and any legiti mate development, willing to play fair with that organization,, can be assured fair and enthusiastic support from it. The Chamber, however, does not support every proposition presented to it without investigation, or give its support to; every promoter that happens along. Il is not a boosler organi-; station essentially, but a business organization, and is operated , upon common .sense business principles, which is precisely as it1 should be. - ; We believe the Williams broadcast against Mcilford was un I warranted and un'ftiir, and we are confident future developments j will sustain this view. We have not the same informal ion rjoii- cerning the anonymous complaint, but would be greatly stir-j prised if all the facts would sustain the claim that this or any other local industry, had not received all the assistance to which j it was legitimately entitled. THE INSOLUBLE ALTHOl'd'H the AVicliiTshiiiij l'loliiliilitui report 1ms bcon Imiidcil to Vresiclent Hoover, ils eontenls have not been releiised. However, us pietlieted in tliis eolinnn sonie inotillis iifjo. il'is known thitl the report, takes no stand upon the enforcement or repeal ol' the 18th amendment, and that there are as many di vergent views in the report as there are memhers. Too 'hail hut that's the difficult thine nbnut the I'rnhihi lion problem. A minority believes in strict enforcement of I'ro hibition as it stands, a majority doesn't so believe, but ainoun that majority there is no unanimity, some believing ill abso lute repeal, others in niodifbation, still others in stale control and light, wines and beer. The Wiekershani committee, although composed of excellent men and women, simply reflects the condition of public opinion wl it takes no definite slanil. but confines itself lo divergent views rcfinrdiii!; a solution of the problem.. I'nfortunate, hut probably no representative committee could tlo otherwise.
