THE RIGHT TRACK

THERE is no doubt that the ups ana
= downs, the hardships and heart
aches incident to the readjustment per-
iod have brought a new note into the
affairs of men. Perhaps not a new
note but at least more deeper re-
gard for the welfare of the other fell
low, a more kindly interest in how the
"other half lives"
The program of endeavor which
the State Chamber of Commerce has
outlined under the leadership of Pres
ident Coffman emphasizes this fact.
The chamber proposes to make the
problems of the farmer, and not the
direct advancement of the business
man, it's chief work. This program is
but in keeping with the best thought
of the day in all parts of the country.
Men with breadth of vision and hon.
esty of purpose realize that the pro-
blems of the farmer are not the pro-
blems Of one class but the problems of
all the people and that the solution is
not one for self determination on the
part Of the farmer but one that calls
for cooperative effort as between the
agricultural and commercial interests.
With commemorate vision President
Coffman is seeking to lead his organ
ization to the farm and to work from
the inside outward and not from the
outside inward. The state chambers
activities are predicated on the fact
that today farming is business and
that it must be considered upon the
same basis as merchandising, manu-
featuring and other commercial and
Industrial activities, and that it must
be so considered not only by farmers
but by the people as a whole.
What the state chamber is seeking
to do in the state every commercial
organization, which is functioning as
it should, is striving to do in its i'm
mediate community. The day is past,
or should be past, when the chief en-
deavor of the COMMERCIAL club in an
agricultural community is directed to-
woard attracting new settlers. Com
mercial clubs today are not devoting
their efforts or expendnig their money
for highly colored literature intended
to bring in prospective homebuiders.
1t has dawned upon the men who direct
the affairs of such organizations that
the welfare of the resident is of great
er Importance than the presence of
the prospect and that an agricultural
community thrives upon the wealth
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1922-07-06

for the emnity which too often farmer
folk have had toward commercial clubs
and for the erection of a false bar
rier between town and country which
is the damnation of any agricultural
community.
