Club To Start
Big Campaign
For Membership

Inat campaign for more mem.
oers OF the Commercial club woult
De lnaugurated soon, and that it /,
necessary for every member to be,
come booster for the club in the
meantime, was the sense of the re-
marks made by c. E. Knowland,
Alhg Blng of the Cherrians and
chairman of the publicly commit
zee of the club, this noon at the
business mems luncheon.
Every business man in Salem
shouid be member of the Com
nlerclal club" said Mr.. Knowland,
anu not leave the work of BOOST
ing this organization and this com
lnuhlty to the Cherrians alone.
mere is a great need, at present.
Luz the spirit of the booster and it
Is up to the present members to
sen the organization to those who
do not belong.
u o. Clancey reviewed the work
VI the Cherrians last year during
the Shrine convention and the
portland Rose Festival, stating that
~ was through the efforts of Sa-
'ems booster organization with the
assistance of the community clubs
OF the county that so many yicitors
were given a chance to see the Will
lamette valley.
Mr.. Clancy also mentioned the
tourists parking grounds that had
oeen opened last year through the
eIrorts OF the Cherrians and which |
nad accommodated 3519 cars from
he middle of May to Otober when |
ne park had been closed.
otto Myers, of the Spaulding
Logging Lumber Company, at the
'equest of T. E. McCroskey, secre-
airy of the Commercial club, ex-
blamed the necessity of the club'sI
aking action regarding a reduction
n lumber freight rates east. Mr..
Ayer stated that owing to the pres
mt rates, eastern markets were not
low supplied with western lumber,
which could not compete with
white pine because of a
over rate enjoyed by the southern
imber producers. The Commercial
'lub voted that it would send a re-
luest to the different heads asking
or reduction in the present lum-
yer rate.
Coach Mathews invited the mem
'ers of the club to be present at a
next Monday noon at
2:15 to be given by the girls of
university in order that
he business men of Salem may see
he improvements made in the in
within the last year.

Congress Meet To
Organize Tonight

Washington, Feb. 2S.-The full
republican membership of the nexl
mouse was called to meet in caucus
mere tonight to organize the ma
Jority forces.
With the incoming members
