Salem Is Growing
The state capital city of Oregon continues to grow and
grow mid jrrow ; This was brought to mind by a recent
issue of the Salcni Statesman in which the industries ofini"t
Marion county and the Willamette valley were well cov
ered. It is an edition that Kditor Hubert Hendricks has
placed a jjreat deal of work upon and as a lcsult he has
given to his community an issue which is of vast benefit
to every industry.
