MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1933. PAGE THREE SURER ELECTION AS By the election of many of 1U citizens to high offices In the busi ness and commercial world, Medford Is rapidly assuming a position of leadership In the Pacific northwest ' " 1 WW ff Paul A. Scherer and on the Pacific coast, it was pointed out today by chamber of commerce officials. Election of Medford men to re sponsible positions in organizations throughout the Pacific coast not only Is a distinct compliment to the abil ity of the men themselves but Is an honor which should be appreciated by everyone living In Medford. Many Instances can be cited of local busi ness men who are officials in organi zations and their efforts bring vnlu able publicity to the city. Recent election of Paul A. Scherer to the presidency of the Pacific Northwest Advisory Board Is probably one of the highest honors conferred on a Medford man in a long time, chamber officials stated this morn ing, and Medford should be proud that one of its leading citizens has been elevated to the head of one of the largest organizations of shippers and railroad officials on the Pacific coast. In larger centers of "the Pacific northwest the activities of the advi sory board are watched with great interest, particularly by fruit men, lumbermen, and those responsible for creating a vast amount of tonnage and It Is believed that more active Interest will be taken locally In its future deliberations with the presi dency now in the able hands of Mr. Scfcerci. Mr. Scherer has also recently been elected president of the Northwest Fruit Industries, Inc., which It is pointed out by local fruit Interests is a due recognition of his energies find ability in his chosen work. Ths also is another example of the leader chip which Medford is supplying in the business world of the Pacific northwest. A city is often Judged by its citi zens and Mr. Scherer and other local men supplying the leadership in these regional organizations the in evitable results will be that consider ably more attention will be focused on our city to the ultimate benefit of all who are in business here.
