Show Good Plan But Lets Let's Go Farther We were interested to note in the editorial columns of last weeks week's San Juan Juin Record the of a plan phin that would combine the chambers of commerce of Monticello l and Blanding into one unit that would serve both areas equally equall but with more action due to the combined strength of the group This sounds to us to be a very good idea not only because we can see eee development for our southern neighbors through this plan but because we think it might be a start towards a bigger and better group including a larger larg larg- largI I er cr area with even greater influence and power By this we mean the creation of a United Chamber of Commerce group for forthe forthe forthe the Four Corners new Western Minerals Empire which includes portions of New w Mexico Colorado Arizona and Utah as advocated by the Industries committee of I the Moab Chamber amber of Commerce Contacts have been en made by members of the committee to several neighboring groups all of which are enthusiastically in favor of the plan So far the chamber heads contacted and agreeing to the plans represent Farmington Grand Junction Junction Junction Junc Junc- tion Cortez Moab Monticello Blanding Price and Vernal This represents according according according ac ac- ac- ac cording to Chamber statistics a population population population lation of persons Cities now being contacted include Flagstaff Prescott Window Rock Durango Silverton Grants and Gallup This addition to the pre present nt group would bring the the- population total to well above We are sure that such an organization organization tion representing this large number of people and such an important area of th the U. U S S. S in minerals and other potentials would be able to acc accomplish much more through channeled efforts than the combined combined com com- totals of the individual groups working as individual groups |
