Deyelop Practical industries,


Editor Tidings: 1t occurs to the
writer that It is now an opportunt
time for the Chamber of Commerce
to take up some of the things that
were mapped out at its reorganization
for the development of a. larger and
better Ashland, some of the things
that will lay the foundation for per-
manent industries and larger pay
rolls.
We are now at the time when
there will be surplus of labor
thrown upon the market, and for the
mutual good of the community, an
effort should be made to hold and
employ that labor. II every commu-
nifty the country over would take
steps to this end, the reaction OF la
Dor and production would come much
more gradually. and perhaps the for
mer low level OF prives would never
be reached again.
Ashland needs the establishment
of several industries all OF which
are practical, and are within the
reach of the community ii n neces-
sary effort were put forth to pro-
cure them. For instance, good
box factory, dehydrating plant. a
eannery and vinegar plant. All of
these are not only practical and es-

REsCUING THE CHILDREN.

In his intensely practical way, Her
bert Hoover has called all America
TO ioin with him in the relief OF 81
100000 children in Europe who must
endure great suffering, and many OF
them meet death unless America
comes to their rescue.
He has organized European re-
lief council consisting of the Ameri-
can relief administration, American
Red Cross, American Friends serv-
ice committee (Quakersl, Jewish
Joint distribution committee. Federal
Council of the Churches of Christ in
America, Knights of Columbus, Y.
NJ. C. A., and Y. w. c. A. This coun-
ell takes in every Protestant. every
Catholic. and every Jew in the Uni
ted States as well as all who class
themselves agnostics or atheists.
The principal work now is TO reach
the hundred million Americans
which the relief council represents.
We may look confidently to Hoover
TO formulate the plan and put ii into
operation, and with equal confidence
we may look for ample response from
every section of this land. With Hoo
yer at the head OF the council. mo-
doubt can be entertained that he will
provide for American aid to reach
those who are 50 sorely in need OF II,
When this burden is intelligently
distributed over our entire land, it
cannot be heavy on the individual
contributor. The time is we'll chosen.
As we approach the Christmas holi-
days, the fountains of sympathy run
strong. and with this sympathy will
come material aid. The country
should prepare itself now TO meet
Herbert Hoover's call on behalf of
helpless humanity,-Portland Tele-
