moved to Investigate the possibilities
or erecting a large sign at the Junc
tion of Die Old Oregon Trull and La
Uramle-Wallowa Luke highways, and
uIko to lnvestlgnte the poNHlhllltles of
obtaining more publicity over the
nation for the Wallowa, district
through use of .outdoor magazines.
other periodicals and In other wuys.
, It was proposed by Interested per
sons that an electrlcaly illuminated
sign, of large proportions, be placed
at Attains avenue and Hemlock street,
carrying in easily distinguished let
ters the message that La Orande Is
the gateway to the Wallowa lake
country, the Switzerland of America.
It was pointed out that similar
methods are used by cities adjacent
to the Yosemlte national park, and
that these California cities, through
such publicity, reap annually tro'
mendous benefits from tourist travel
going into this famous playground
and scenic spot.
Huperlor to Yosemlte
It was further stated that, as has
often been remarked by those who
have visited both places, the Wallowa
country's natural beauties far exceed
those of the more widely known Yose
mlte.
Rep. Pierce, deeply Interested in
development of this natural vacation
land, Is In Wallowa county today in
vestigating the road development in
that district, also the possibilities of
through highways Into that country
irom La orande, Baker, etc., that
would make the "Switzerland of
America" more accessible to the
motorist. He also Is Investigating
tne plans for roads Into the Snake
river country east of Enterprise and
Wallowa lake, to the world's deepest
gorge deeper and more majestic
than the Orand Canyon of the Colo
rodlo. Undoubtedly, whenever this
scenic gem Is made available to or
dinary travel, many thousands of
tourists will enter the region an
nually.
Rep. Pierce is firmly of the belief
that it will not bo long until the
Wallowa country will become a na
tional park.
