«.*
Initiative measure No. 310 on the ballot gives to the Port of Portland
means to create such a port.
The primary object of the bill is to furnish the means to insure the opening
and maintaining of a 30 foot channel from Portland to the sea and of building
and establishing port facilities at the City of Portland sufficient to handle the
foreign and coastwise shipping of that port.
The cost of this improvement will be met by the people living within the
boundaries of the Port of Portland.
When you go to the polls November second vote 310 YES and give to the
Port of Portland the power to maintain its 30 foot channel to the sea and to
build adequate port facilities to handle all of the great products of the interior
of the state. ■ •
■*
’4w7:
- The passage of this bill means lower freight rates for the products of Oregon
in reaching the markets of the world and a greater profit to the producers.
This is the most important arid the most valuable measure that has ever
been put up to thejvoters of the interior portions of the state.
