Page Five New Plan to Realign Oregon's Counties Advanced by Dr. Smith EUGENE, Ow. a new plan lor re alignment of Oregon counties, which would cut the number from 36 to seven, and change them from politi cal units to those based on natural and economic fnctcrs. Is proponed by two University of Orogon experts, Dr Warren D. Smith, professor of geo graphy, and Alfred h. bo max, profes sor of business administration, In an article published In the current Is sue of the Commonwealth Review, university publication. The article Is the first of a series which will present the results of an extensive study made by the two faculty members on this subject. Dr. Smith, who Is nationally known as a j-eologist as well as a geographer, has an intimate knowledge of the phy sical conditions of all sections of Ore gon, while Profeusor Lomax has done considerable research along economic and business lines In the state. -The radio, telephone and tele graph, which make for rapid com munication, the automobile on im proved highways, arid the airplane which greatly shortens distances, have disqualified the little county unit and its court house of horse and bugjjy daya as an efficient instru ment for county government' the article says. "Boundaries of these social units should be governed not by artificial abrltrary decree but by the kinds of soil, climate, geologic history, topo graphy and hydrography. The seven provinces' proposed. In accordance with the factors outlined, are: Ccast province. This would ex tend from the ocean to the summit of the coast range, but in the south ernmost portion would follow the eastern boundary of Curry county. This province would stretch the full length of the state. Should this be deemed too large, it could be divided into north and south portions. Klamath province. It northern Over The Valley Personals boundary would be the north lino oi Douglas county, eastern boundary the oast boundary oi Jackson county. and it would extend eouth to the v.. , ,.
