The Chamber of Commerce forum has hit upon’! ‘9 subject that is worth while. The industrial de- velopment of Casper. If discussion will lead to | more discussion and final settlement upon some. one project to put over, then the chamber has accom- plished something and. provided reason for its ex- istence, It is only too often that bodies like the Cham- -ber‘of Commerce entertain their members with dis- | cussion of things their community needs and de- sires, and having doné that much consider their "duty done. ) Tt is not so, however. .Even after necessity | arises for the é¢stablishment of an industry, and as- | surances of financial success become, so, apparent that failure is impossible, it does not mean that'| some kind person is going to come along and pre- sent you an industrial concern. It is more often than not that you must show these industrial, peo- | ple, demonstrate to them that you have the raw | material and pther requirements to insure success. You may have to go out, hunt them up and bring them into camp. There is no doubt that a number of industrial ‘establishments would find it profitable to operate 3}. in this community. There are at hand a number of “y raw materials to be utilized. | re men with » experience and Angtusty such | et a ® tunities as Casper has to ae The thing 0! { portance is to connect up the people of this ae 4 with the opportunity. THat is ‘one ofthe responsi- * bilities of the chamber. ‘ If the chamber is open to suggestion, it would i be this, that some one industry needed be selected, 2 ‘it matters not what, just so it employs men or women, has a payroll and manufactures or changes fome material that can be used locally or shipped. elsewhere. Then bend. every efforttg secure it and establish it. One thing calls for something else. work will be in making the start. further along. When the chdmber has a few industrial monur ments to point to, we will all have a new respect for it. The chamber has the ability, industry and. in- telligence to do the things outlined. Then why not?

The quicker legislative action is taken in the framing and passing of a protective tariff law, the quicker relief from present discouraging conditions will come to the farming, dairying, manufacturing and laboring interests of the country. There is no other one move that will cure the ills and reestab- lish, upon a living basis, the several interests with less disturbance to them. Just now the farmers of the West are holding conferences and conventions and adopting resolu- tions demanding an import duty on grain, dairy products, livestock, etc. Ten million bushels of wheat imported from Canada in a single month at a time when the wheat growers of the United States @ unable to sell their grain for a price that will cover the cost of production, immense importations KY fo+ % ¢ impo! “compared with 4,000, Ayed-in-the-piete and ‘printed'cloths there were im portations of 42,000,000 yards as compared witt vious. year. _| frst nine ait of 1920, over, 122 000,000, yard: as. compared with pf approximately 100,000,000 yards or nearly 500 | fectly clear to. any. student of economics that i! --- ‘i th | United States, and if there is diminished production || of butter from Denmark, large importations of meat from Argentine, and offerings of Australian and Argentine wool depressing the market in the: United States, have impressed the farmer with the need of an “America First” policy which shall. in- sure to the American producer at least an even chance in his home market. Now we see also the shutting down of textile raills along the Atlantic coasé and in those South- ern states which have in, recent years become man- ufacturers of cotton goods. Coincident with this curtailment of production and consequent redye- | tion of employment we read statistics of imports | showing that in the nine months ended with Sep- | » tember we bought foreign manufactured cotton 4 goods to the value of $1-13,000,000 as compared 4 : . ‘ ‘ , with $29,000,000 last year.

No one contends that we should discontinue al buying abroad. What the farmers of the West, the |. peanut growers of the South, the livestock men of the Southwest, and the manufacturers of the East- ern states are contending for is an import duty which shall“amount to at least the difference in cosh of production at home and abroad so, that the American “producer may compete om an equality with his foreign, competitor.
