TREFZ DOESN'T SYMPATHIZE
WITH TROUBLED MERCHANTS
National Chambers Field Secretary Tells Aber-
deem Men Their Ills Are of Their Own
Procuring, Mainly

Last Tuesday evening the Aberdeen
Chamber of Commerce entertained at
a banquet at the Hotel Washington,
Edward F. Trefz, field secretary of
the United States Chamber of Com
merce; about a hundred sat down to
the banquet, including visitors from
Hoquiam, Elma. Montesano, McCleary
and other nearby towns Mr.. w. c.
Mumaw, president of the Aberdeen
Chamber of Commerce, was chairman
Of the evening.
Mr.. Trefz is a remarkable speaker,
and marshals his facts, arguments
and logic in most virile and tell
ing manner. He is not afraid to speak
plainly, even bluntly. and many
things he said to the merchants and
men of affairs present, cannot help
but bear much good fruit
He says much of the business
troubles now being borne by us are
our own fault business men are not
unit, they are not organized. Speak
ing of the United States Chamber of
Commerce, he said that it was now
the strongest federation in the world,
and affiliated with 700 other like Or
ganizations. To the wicked and per-
sistent Democratic "tinkering with
the tariff he laid much of the hard
times, but he said that relief was in
sight and that right speedily. The
depressed condition of so much of
this country has reused a public spir-
it and they demand that the foolish
laws be repealed which allowed for
eign nations to beggar our country.
He showed that as soon as the war
is over the Northwest would be call
ed upon and that the lumber indus
tries will grow by leaps and bounds.
He cited how the forests of Ger
many and Belgium have practically
been denuded by war and that they
would be compelled to buy here. The
East is in a chaotic and confused
condition, the business increase is un-
natural, stock gambling is carried on
in an intoxicated, wild fashion. the
banks piling up money and nowhere
to loan it on good collateral, labor is
unsettled, but that the central West
with the enormous crops will help
to steady things. and that the North.
west has the very brightest. outlook.
All Germany and England are man
ufacturng vast quantities of goods
and receiving army jpay for the work
so that after the war these goods
may be sent intG this country at a
low price in order to obtain imme
date funds therefore our govern
mSsht must raise or restore our tar
<ifs in order to protect our own in
dustries. He spoke Of the remark
able industrial development of Ger
many and England and said we must
be prepared to meet It. England dom
mates the world through her com
mercial supremacy.

center of the three store spaces next

of the new store will be 20 by IS

and accessories. Mr.. Stieglitz has
been in Aberdeen the past 61s years
conducting his business in the Finch
building for the past two years.

He said the various brands of la
Dor was organized, but that business
men were not, hence they suffered
In 10 years England had passed
1900 laws, 81 per cent of them had
to do with the business man. In
five years the United States had pass
ed $4,000 laws and 81 per cent had
to do with regulation of the business
man; was it any wonder that busi-
ness conditions and business inter-
ests were in the demoralized condi
tion they are. The business man was
becoming to be looked upon as a
pariah; the unions, the Socialists, the
|. w. WIS, the cheap grating legis-
lators and legislatures We're legislat-
ing him out of existence and the busi-
ness man in town looks upon it with
carelessness and Indifference. The
remedy is a thorough organization OF
the business interests.
In Europe there is growing the bit
terest and most deadly form of hat
red against the several governments
and rulers, a hatred so intense that
it is almost a poison, this will re-
suit in swarms of foreigners coming
to this country to get away from the
blood and cruel nightmare they have
passed through. We must be organ
lied and ready for them, so that they
may find a home, make living, and
be assimilated by this great country.
Mr.. Trefz gave much information to
the audience on what is needed in
Aberdeen to cause it to grow and
there is no doubt but that the seed
set by him will grow and that we
shall see the deadness and apathy
which has cast gloom over this, city
pass away and a better feeling and
better times come 1t is ours if we
60 after it.
Mr.. F. C. Wilcox spoke on the
shingle industry of Washington, and
if Woodrow Wilson and the demo-
cratic statesmen CD had heard what
he had to say they sure would have
had something to think about.
Unless speedy relief is given by our
government and the tariff put back
on shingles, then goodbye to the shin
gle industry, for it is surely DOOM
ed. The array of statistics presented
and the facts produced were unan-
swerable. Mr.. Wilcox speech produc-
ed a profound impression.
