Natural Beauty Of Oregon Has Big Cash Value 'Continue?-' fro:n Page 1) the highways to the popular parts of the state. But there is still another ques tion about the mnintunanco of Oregon's bctiutbs, themselves. What of the billboards, it is asked, the slums and auto wreck ing establishments along the higlnvuys? And what of the larjo forest burns and cut-oveis which spoil so many of the virgin forest stands. There ore some organizations in the state devoted to the era dication of this type of thing, such as the Oregon roadside council and the Oregon Coast Highway association. " But it seems to be the concen sus of informed opinion that it is up to the individual citizen of Oregon to start and finish what plans may be needed to "clcun up" the state, und make it a place we'll be proud tp ' s h o w our neighbors.
