Letters From
The People
WRITER GIVES VIEWS
ON PARK HKAItlNH
Tho writer attended tho sched
uled meeting at tho Chamber ot
Commorco Saturday ovenlng, and
listened to tho arguments, pro and
con, ancnt tho proposed extension
of Crater Lake national park north'
orly approximately ntno miles, so at
to take In Diamond lake, and ex
tending tho western boundary to the
Douglas county -lino.
The topic was an interesting ono,
and merited a fuller attendanco on
tho part ot our citizens. Howovor,
falling quite naturally Into tbo cate
gory of things assigned to that al
ready overburdened public servant
popularly known as "George," that
Individual tackled the. problem in
real football stylo.
Tho primary object of tho discus
sion, seemingly, was to put tho com
mittee appointed by the Chamber In
possession ot as much Information
as posslblo both as to tho valuo
of tho lako as a scenic asset, and tho
character ot its setting and sur
roundings nnd tho wishes ot .tho
peoplo as to its futuro disposition
in order that tho report ot tho com
mlttco may reflect tbo majority
opinion of this section, as to whoth
or or not Diamond lako as known
to Charley Stono in yo olden tlmu
and Its immediately surrounding tor
rltory should bo lncludod in tho
"park."
Friend Stono cortalnly drew us a
beautiful word plcturo ot Diamond
lako and Its setting beforo it had
boon subjected to tbo vandalism and
deflloment rendering it necessary
for that lover ot the out-of-doors to
announco that hereafter -to him, at
least It would bo but a sacred
memory.
Tho discussion took on a broad-
gauged aspect as it proceeded, and
presented tho subject from many
angles. To tho writer, who went to
tho meeting with an absolutely Im
partial and open mind, tho discus
sion dovoloped one outstanding fact,
1. o., that it is practically Impossible
In tho consideration of such a cub-
Ject whoro it safely may bo con
coded tbo wholo ploasure-lovlng por
tion of tbo pooplo are directly and
vitally concerned to ollmlnato tho
commercial ejement that so effectu
ally pormeatcs tho body politic of
today.
Tho idea of incorporating Dia
mond lako in tho national park is,
Ipso facto, appealing to that portion
ot our citizenry known as tbo out-of-doors
on plcasuro-bcnt class dur
ing releaso from business cares, bo
causo tbo Idea carries with It tho
assurance that tho lako and its im
mediate environment will bo pro
sorvod from furthor deflloment nnd
encroachment and commercial devas
tation, not only for us, but for tboso
who Bball follow in our footsteps;
and again, because tho Idea carries
with it tho prospect of having that
Incomparablo gem of nature Hnkod
with that other marvelous wonder
Crater lake by a roadway unsur
passed in scenic beauties.
Opposed to this idea is the alleged
restrictions and esplonago employed
in tho management of other national
parks, amounting in eomo Instances'
By Condo
to a travesty on our boasted lib
erties. Tho central idea nbout which Mr.
Sparrow, superintendent ot Crator
Lake. park, wovo his argument In
bohalt of its incorporation In tho
"park" was tho fact that Oregon
hucT'h'U ono national park, and It
should bo rondo as nttractlvo to tho
tourist as possible That tho addi
tion to tho "parkot Diamond lako
wouiu nun very iiiucu jo mo at
tractiveness ot tho "park," an dbpor-
ate as an Inducement for tho tourist
to spend at least two days moro In
tho country; stressing tho point that
tho crop of tourists was a novor
cndlng and an Increasing crop.
Whereas, tbo commercial advantages
ot tho comparatively small amount
of inerchanlnblo timber avallablo in
tho event tho lako was not included
In Mho ''park" was but a temporary
and fleeting thing A CITIZEN.

ning March 28 and ending April 2.
Tho school of commorco ot tho uni
versity was unanimously requested

Problems ntfoctlng the Small

tho organization of tho most ef
fective working club will bo put up
and torn down In ordor to give each
attendant a knowledgo of club
technique. Industrial davolopmont
of tho smaller town and relation ot
capital and labor will be discussed
and expanded upon. The aim is to
givo tho secretary an opportunity
to unravel his own knotty prob
lorn with tho help of experts in his
lino.
Thoro is also In storo, for thoso
attondlng, somo of tho host lecturers
of tno nortnwest on topics essen
tially Hocrotarlal. This will also bo
tho tlraa and placo for tho'stato con

Portland In January,
Tbo outstanding features of this
courso will bo so to train tho oxocu
tlvo secretary that ho will bo ablo
to Increaso tho efficiency of his
community commercial organization;
to utilize his overy latent onergy
for the good of a democratic club;

Thoro has boon somo Improvement

West Coast lumber Is practically bar

resultant from anforcod Inflation ot

In 1914, tho railroads ot tho coun

Seattle, January 28th. In part, Mr.
Clark said:
." "It will bo well to get It out
or your heads if you havo an Im
pression that southern plno can
not supply tho demand east ot
Chicago. It can, and It will. It
will como a very long way west

ot Chicago, and It is a hard pull
for you a long dlstnnco wost ot
Chicago. It is -whoro tho popula
tion is that lumber Is consumed.
I would rather havo tho Btato of
Illinois alone than all tha terri
tory west ot it to tho Pacific
Ocean. '
"And another thing I warn
you against. All who embraco
tho belief that southern pine
will soon disappear and ceaso to
bo a factor In the competitive
markets, leaving the field to tbo
West Coast, have a Jolt coming
to them. Just let that, go homo
