We have been in operation under the new program about a month now and it has been a job, believe me. Our first night meeting was relatively successful with approximately 30 members in attendance. The facilities at Moon Lake office building are great and we really appreciate having such a nice place to hold our meetings. It was the feeling of those present that s night meeting once a month possibly would be better and we might be able to accomplish more than at a dinner meeting. From now on we will hold our meetings on the third Thursday of each month at 8 p.m. at the Moon Lake Electric Building. We have printed a new brochure on the area and we think it is great It is available through the motels, hotels, cafe's and other businesses. They are also available at the Chamber of Commerce Office. They tell a good story about the Roosevelt area. We are receiving a great many inquiries from our advertisement in the Scenic Edtion of the Salt Lake Tribune and we have sent out pamphlets and brochures telling about the area and its recreational facilities, etc., all over the country. The big push right now is to get our membership drive completed. We are particularly interested in welcoming the new comers to the area and having them become affiliated with us. We feel that we can better serve the area if we have a good representation of the businesses, know their needs and get their ideas. Cooperative effort is what the ChamChamber of Commerce is all aboutr-th- e ber is the voice of the businessmen and represents them, if properly organized, in many areas from legislative matters to tourist promotion. It all takes Team Effort. It has been interesting to note as I have been traveling to various meetings and meeting and making new friends, just what our public image is. So many of the people are not aware that we are progressive and have an active chamber of commerce. We have had good representation by board members. President Ashby and myself at these meetings and I can ssure you that we get the opportunity to sell Roosevelt, and our public image is improving. We received word that we are losing one of our members, Myrna Richens, who represents Socialette Club. We are sorry to see Myrna and Duane leave the area. They are both civic minded individuals and have spent much time working on community projects. The Chamber of Commerce extends best wishes and good luck to them in their move and new jobs. We will miss them. Congratulations to Duane on his promotion. full-tim- e Improving safety conditions for school children, was the Eagle Scout project for Wayne and Rodney Millett.

This is the message that is now coming through loud and clear from Secretary of Agriculture Earl L. Butz. At Memphis, Tenn., early in May, the Secretary slated: We want to give far mers the change to maximize their muscle in the marketplace. He pointed out that much of the perennial farm problem through the past four decades can be blamed on the fact that government-inste- ad of farmers-h- as exerted leverage in the marketplace. As soon as Government influence in the soybean industry was diminished, soybean production and soybean sales skyrocketed." the Secretary said. "Continuation of Government domination would have killed the American cotton industry and prevented meaningful expansion of soybean production," he added. The alternative? Muscle in the marketplace by farmers the Secretary said. He added that farmers ran now contract for future sale of their commodities and carry them under loan until delivery, without loss of loan eligibility. The Ses cretary also said that Government have been changed to allow this practice. And he added: "This givra farmers greater leverage in taking some of the risk out of price changes, while they maintain control and seek the best terms of sale".
