IDAHO CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Organization formed at Boise Last
Week for Business Interests
and Mutual Benefit.

w. s. Parkhurst GARNER Bid, OF |
Richfleld, always alive to the best
interests OF the state and this section
in particular, has for some time been
at work on a plan to federate the
various commercial clubs In the
state into one federation which will
cooperate with the United States
Chamber OF Commerce in matters
pertaining to the welfare of the
country at large. His efforts have
resulted in the organization OF the
Idaho Chamber of Commerce, which
was effected at a meeting OF several
secretaries of commercial clubs held
at Boise last week through which 1t
is hoped to secure the cooperation
OF all business and industrial inter-
ests for mutual benefit.
The idea is to bring about unity OF
purpose between the various public
organizations In the state so that
they may work In harmony and still
retain their individuality. Upon
questions OF interest to all, they may
operate through the Idaho Chamber
OF Commerce which will serve as a
sort of clearing house through which
they can help each other. BY united
effort, 1t is felt. much more can be
accomplished. Local problems can be
dealt with locally while upon matters
OF interest to all. cooperation may
be had through the new organization.
The officers OF the new organiza-
ton are: President, William H. Park
hurst. Richfleld; vice president. r.
w. Childs, Boise; general secretary.
George Stoll. Pocatello. 1t will be
strictly non-political and non-parti-
san In character, like the national
body.
Chapter 95 OF the session laws OF
1911 empowers counties to make a
tax levy of not to exceed / mill for
publicity and the maintenance of ex-
hibts for the purpose of advertising
the resources Of the various sections.
and 1t is the purpose OF the organic
alton to interest the commissioners
in the various counties In the state
In the proposition.
There is evident need OF a pub
licity campaign at this time to bring
before the people the advantages Of
fered in various sections OF the
state and 1t can be more successfully
carried out through a general or
ganization than by local efforts. and
from present appearances 1t looks as
II this organization could fill lons
felt want.
