That sounds like a big organization, Hut with 12,000 members payisg dues into the Los Angeles chamber and 7,000 hold- ang membership cards at San Francisco, ¢ it is apparent that Seattle will have to y) “step on the gas” to hold up its end in the battle for business among Coast cities. “What good will a Chamber of Com- metre membership do me?” is the ques- tion most frequently asked of the cam- a a igners, they say. a 4 What, indeed? Why SHOULD a busi- ) 7} =ness man join the Chamber? Here are / ie ~©=s just a few of the reasons: a Its objects are to foster and advance, by every honorable means, the trade and ae | welfare of Seattle, Washington, the North- ff west and Alaska. | The Chamber has been a dominantfac- tor.in holding for Seattle the $70,000,000 annual commerce of Alaska against fre- quent attempts of Portland and San Fran- cisco to get that business. } The Chamber has played a most impor- oe tant role in Seattle’s jump from an obscure 3 fish and lumber harbor into one of the great world ports. Examples of this aid in 1925 are seen in the commercial mis- q sion sent to the Orient and in the great National Foreign Trade Council held here. of The Chamber's industrial department has done invaluable work in bringing new industries into Seattle and the Northwest, and in furthering the move for a larger sa consumption of factory production at home. In the last year, for example, the Chamber was responsible for adding 1,600 men to industrial payrolls, equivalent to a population addition of 5,000 persons. Sixty special investigations and surveys, covering manufacturing, financing and _ Marketing were prepared during the past i year for various industries. The recent Northwest Merchants’ expo- sition is an indication of what the Cham- ber is doing for local industry. It is fighting the tax burden, thru spe- ? ?

It is spending huge sums in advertising nationally ow country and its possibilities, and in a thousand other ways is fighting for the cause in which you, as a Seattleite, bene- fit directly or indirectly. If every Seattle man recognized the work that the Chamber of Commerce is doing for him, it would not be a question of the campaign committee striving for 5,000 members; it would be a problem of which 5,000 to accept. Stringing the Chinese TRINGS as long as from here to Ha fax, are attached to the promise of the great powers to discu vith China the question of allowing her to run her own courts in her own territory. First, Pekin has been warned that “ dences of its ability and willingne to enforce respect for the safety of foreign lives and property” must be given before extraterritorial privileges will be yielded. This means Chinese workers must not go on strike for better conditions in the foreign-owned cotton mills and elsewhere, lest the act be interpreted as lacking “respect” for foreign property. It also means they must not strike back when foreign police shoot down unarmed students parading thru the streets of Ch nese cities—as recently happened—lest the act be regarded as lacking ‘respect’! for foreign lives. In short, they must take kicks, and other foreign favors lying down Next, the powe make it perfectly plain that the mere establishment of courts and the enactment of laws in con- formity with their views will not suffice. China is told she must first establish “a stable government.” This, in itself, is a mighty long string. Nine years ago our own congress promised independence to the Philippine islands as soon as the Filipinos could establish “a stable government.” Such a government has been functioning nearly a decade now and the Filipinos seem farther from inde- pendence than ever. Not only. will the great powers inevitably have the say as to when China has “a stable government,” but individually noth- ing is to prevent them promoting civil wars between the provinces in the future as in the past. Most of China's recent wars have been between native tuchuns in foreign pay. Anyhow, China's troubles are far deeper than extraterritoriality. And it won't help her a particle if that were given up now. She is the victim of her own corrupt poli- ticians lending themselves to foreign intrigue for gold. She must find a way to get rid of these boodlers and meddlers, both foreign and domestic, before she will have even a Chinaman’s chance of getting back on her feet, cuffs telescopes another eee hington, | one with the upper? ‘ei viathan burn a day? i | A, The Leviathan, when traveling lat the rate of 24 knots per hour T'S take a stroll down a long winding lene, where nature has | purng 875 tons of oll per day. 4 flourished at will.
