one man connected with the
movement said It was his belief
that no consumers should pay -

notify either his local representa-

propositions. Reports also OF 1ail'

should also be reported to the
same parties. This party says that

not pay moro than from IS to 50

TO UNIFY INTERESTS
OF THIS VALLEY
Plans Outlined in Board of Trade
Last Evening by Springfield Cham
Der of Commerce Men.

Clifton ID. jackson, secretary of the
Springfield Mass chamber of commerce.
and John A. Priest, formerly advertising
manager for the Hendee Manufacturing
Co, and chairman of the publicity COM
mittee of the Springfield chamber of
commerce, were here last night in con-
ference with a group of members of the
board of trade at the headquarters.
Mr.. Jackson outlined the plans for
consolidating various interests of the
Connecticut valley into cooperative
movement which deals with the develop-
ment of the Valley along similar lines
of those employed by the Hood River
Valley association of Oregon. In his dis
cussion he called attention to the fact
that there is potentially about 100000
horse power of hydro electric energy
which can be developed in this valley.
but that at the present only about 500,-
900 Is being utilized. The further devel-
opment of this power should make the
valley practically independent of coal
shortages for manufacturing purposes.
He also stated that New England has the
finest type of skilled workmen found in
any part of the United States and vet
largely through lack of cooperative eff
fort it has not developed as has other sec
tions of the country. There is, however,
a tendency on the part of manufacturing
interests to return to New England and
with the idea of taking advantage of
this movement Mr.. Jackson suggested
the cooperation of all the people up and
down the valley to boom this section.
Mr.. Priest outlined the publicity which
has been given to the project and called
attention to the very great need for
some Connecticut valley emblem which
might be utilized by national advertisers
and others in calling attention to the
scenic beauties of the valley as well as
advantages for manufacturing and agri-
cultural purposes. Mr.. Priest stated that
the first step in bringing about this CO.
operative action was a banquet of vari-
Gus communities in the valley at Spring
field Feb. % and he extended a cordial
invitation to the members of the Brat
tleboro board of trade to be present.
