ing better living conditions, bet

will move as unit.
At Jackson representative
from a dozen of the leading
towns of West Tennessee met
There were delegates from yari
ors commercial bodies, such Al
business mems clubs and associ
atoms.
When the organization is per
fected every town or county OF
village will be expected to or.
ganize a commercial, education
al or agricultural association.
Every one Of these associations
will be represented in q central
body. In this central body ev.
cry associations will stand equal
to every other association.
Brownsville, Hum boldt, Trenton
Jackson and Memphis in all mat.
tiers of organizations and in all
policies will have an equal vote.
Memphis will be no bigger in
the organization than Covingtoh
or Dyersburg.
For five years there has been
q definite forward move in West
Tennessee, but there has been
no unity. Every county and ev
cry small and big town has beer
for itself. Much labor
has been wasted and much OF
the work done has accomplished
little result because it was no,
lone in a big enough way.
This association of commercial
clubs will start out on the idea
that what is good for Bolivar is
good for Memphis and that whal
helps Union City is of CORE
'ponding benefit to jackson. II

CINE by which the people OF
West Tennessee in all matters

The organization is neither

t will be an effective developer
and it will try by methods Of
legitimate publicity to impress
IN the rest of the country that
a soil, in climate, in water
West Tennessee is excelled by
10 other region in the United
States.
1t was the hope of the gentle
men gathered at Jackson Wed
lesday that the petty rivalries
Of one section against another
section will be done away with
and that from now on the PEG,
pie Of West Tennessee in every
thing will feel that an. injury to
one is all injury to all and what
is good for one is good for all.
The organization in fedora
ton are not for business alone,
but for better schools, better
roads, better health, better -liv-
ing conditions.
In the work of drawing closer,
Of cooperating there is necessity
for some energy on the part of
the merchants, manufacturers
and the citizens of Memphis.
A great amount Of our trading
has been done in Mississippi and
Arkansas. The chief reason
why this came about was be.
cause we ceased to be neighbors
with our fellow Tennesseans Of
this region.
Memphis in this organization,
instead Of being the big boss,
must be the big brother.
