As for the overall piogram of highway development and im provement in Klama'.h County, w hich the chamber, city and coun ty submitted three years ago as a five-year plan, it. too. has done rather well. A large percen tage of the proposed projects have either been completed or are un der construction at the present time.

Mon- teith. and this writer will be at tending an Oregon-Washington- Idaho conference of chamber ex ecutives and officers in Portland. This annual meeting not only offers each state group an oppor tunity to discuss and attempt to olve problems peculiar to their own area, it also provides me entire group with an exposure to new methods and techniques of chamber operation and commu nity development. A special feature of this year's meeting will be a morning-long seminar on community Uadcrship conducted by two top experts in the field. One of the men is Wil liam J. Bird, prominent San Francisco insurance executive. who was the Klamath County chamber's annual meeting spcak- 19H1. The other is Harry Krusz. executive vice president of the Long Beach. Calif., Cham ber of Commerce. These two men recently took their community leadership seminar to Hawaii where it was enthusiastically re ceived by the Honolulu Chamber ol Commerce. Such a seminar is of siecial significance to chamber of commerce executives and officers who have, as one of their main concerns, the development of com munity leadership. Retaining the interest of the mature, recognized community and civic leader and, at the same time, discovering and putting to work the younger in dividuals who have the rapacity to assume a leadership role in the years to come is a matter of the utmost urgency not only for a chamber of commerce, but also to the well being of the commu nily it serves. Tile chamber this past week re affirmed a position it has held for at least two decades in oppo sition to the financing of special highway projects through bonding.

Chairman Thaddcus Bruno made the disclosure Friday night follow, ing an eight-hour public hearing by the five-man commission on the plan to give Oregon its second dog track. More than 30 persons testified at the hearing, which was attended by some 250 people. Former Portland Meadows horse racing track operator David Funk, who wants to build tbc track near Wilsonville. has asked the commission for 47 racing dates. Funk testified that the track! would be beneficial to the county and Oregon. He listed the benefits as more than $500,000 in taxes.' 200 jobs not counting construction of the facility, the purchase of supplies and equipment and added tourist income. He said he did not think the track would be "harmful" to the Multnomah Kennel Club at Fair view, the state's only dog back, and added he thought it would be a boon to (he dog breeding indus try in Oregon.
