New Idea-Potatoes In Boxes
PINE CONTAINER PLAN INTRIGUES
HooverMessageHeartening
Constructive Ideas
Are Advanced
PRESIDENT HOOVER'S message to
congress indicates the vast amount
of thinking and hard labor the execu
tive has devoted to the economic prob
lems of the day. His plans to end the
paralysis of credit and his recommenda
tion for Increased taxation to insure
the stability of the government, are the
outstanding features of a message
which faces facts as they are and rec
ognizes the responsibility of presiden
tial leadership.
Aid for business and suffering indus-,
tries, and help for the small borrower
and home owner, are the objects of
constructive proposals in the president's
message, many of which have been an
nounced in recent months and have
received the endorsement of sound
thinkers.
The president sums up conditions in
this paragraph:
"The situation arises largely from an
unjustified lack of confidence. We have
enormous volumes of idle money in the
banks and in hoarding. We do not re
quire more money or more capital we
need to put what we have to work."
In bur own area, the president's views
on anti-trust law revision and railroad
problems are of particular import. Be
lief is widespread that procedure under
the anti-trust laws, particularly as ap
plied to industries based on natural
resources such as lumbering, should be
revised to aid in eliminating cut-throat
competition and enormous waste. Con
solidation to improve conditions of the
railroads, and regulation of the rates
of competitors of railroads, are matters
of the utmost importance to the future
prwpertty of the railroads, and are
thus of no small significance to our own
community.
Space does not permit an all-inclusive
discussion of the message. Sufficient
to say that it gives congress a definite
frorkta- program, at this writing it
already has been thrown open to de
bate, and we shall see what happens.
Downtown Decorations
Are Attractive
ROWS of Christmas trees along the
curbs, and strings of colored lights
across Main street,' give downtown
Klamath Falls a most appropriate ap
pearance as the holiday season opens.
The committee in charge of this phase
of decorations has done its work well.
It is to be hoped there is wide
spread response this year to the request
that householders decorate the exterior
of their homes for the Christmas season.
Cheerful, .indeed, will be the appear
ance of the city if the residence district
matches the business area in Christmas
decorating.
How Two Industries
May Benefit
SOMEWHERE under the surface are
innumerable ideas which, when
brought forth some day and applied
successfully, will call for the sentiment
of that oft-repeated question: "Why
didn't somebody think of that before?"
Such may be the destiny of a sug
gestion advanced by Leslie Rogers pro
posing the packing of Klamath potatoes
in pine boxes. The plan has intriguing
possibilities when viewed in the light
of the welfare of the two greatest in
dustries of the Klamath country.
An attractive pine box of potatoes,
nicely put up and washed in the new
process recently introduced here, should
be welcome, indeed, in the apartment
kitchens of the nation. In the vast
growth of apartment residence lies per
haps, the greatest possibility for ad
vancing the boxed potato idea, al
though it stands to reason that this in
viting package would be welcome in
any kitchen or store room. Combined
with the potato washing project, the
idea is especially attractive, and one
hazards a guess that the vast number
of people who like to buy higher class
products would willingly pay more for
potatoes available in this fashion.
While the box containers would be
heavier than the burlap sacks now in
use. it is pointed out that maximum use
of the weight allowance in each freight
car would be possible with boxes, while
it is not with burlap sacks because of
the fear of damaging potatoes in the
lower tier of sacks. There, is no com
parison between boxes and sacks from
the consumer's standpoint.
Sale of Klamath potatoes in attrac
tive 25 or 50 pound boxes in this
fashion, if successful, undoubtedly
would encourage similar projects in
other potato growing regions. The
growth of wooden box usage is, of
course, vitally important to the future
prosperity of the Klamath region, and
one can readily see that increased oper
ation of the box factories here would
bring about greater local demand for
Klamath potatoes. It is an interesting
study in inter-relating two industries.
. There will, of course, be .practical ob
jections to the plan. But anything that
can be done to help the box shook man
ufacturer, or to boost the prestige of
the Klamath potato, is well worth think
ing about. The idea is presented. Let
us hear more about it
One sometimes wonders if these early
Christmas gifts are a response to the
mail early plea or just a way of obli
gatin us while yet there is time.
Civic pride, it seems, is on the rise
