financing of the propoiod season
ing plant In Motif urd. .
. The report of the' leerlslntivo
committee, rendered to the board
by A. W. Pipes, occupied a good
portion of the session. The di

the following measures -now be
fore the Oregon legislature, and

. The hoard of directors discussed
at length the proposal made . last
week by people K. Johnson of Oma
ha, representative of the Standard
Seasoning society, for the financing
and construction of o seasoning
plant in thi city.
It was the opinion of the cham
ber that every effort' should be
made to encourage the construc
tion of the plant, believing that
Med ford offered many opportuni
ties to the company, interested,' in
the wiiy of climatic condition, in
dustrial sites, raw materials, etc.
Situs. Shown. . ...
A committee consisting of Presi
dent O. O. Alendcrfer and W. H.
CI ore had .shown Mr. Johnson .sev
eral prospective locations, which
met with hl.H approval, but the
proposed financing plan, which in
volved the sale of some S3U0.000
worth of trust certificates, was not
approved by the board, believing
that it would be impossible: to
raise this amount of money in Med
ford at the present time.
t was indicated that failure on
the part of Med ford to subscribe
to the financing plan would not
put 111 in city out of the running
for the proposed new plant, but
i hat the construction of the plant
would not be as extensive as
though the funds had been raised
locally. ,
. The directors discussed several
other matters pertaining to the
Chamber of Commerce and its ac
tivities, but took, no further def
inite actions.
