Pioneer Passes
The New Year presents a reassuring outlook for the whole
of southwestern Oregon, which is blessed with great natural
wealth in standing timber, minerals, agricultural and horticul­
tural lands, deep-sea fishing, and natural recreational advant­
ages second to none. The tide of investment money, as well as
the tide of tourist travel, is turned Oregonward, and the excep­
tionally rich area embraced in southwestern Oregon is due to
become the beneficiary in a large measure.
Curry county, recently opened up to through north and
south travel by the scenic Roosevelt highway, is destined to re­
ceive the full development to which it is entitled by reason of
its great variety of natural resources, and 1929 promises to see
that development well under way.
j Jands
The beautiful natural deep-water harbor at Port Orford
strategically controls the full economical development of the
great southwestern Oregon area, and Port Orford’s future is
consequently assured, with 1929 witnessing its movement for­
ward to a great degree.
The News extends its wishes to the people of southwestern
Oregon for a Happy and Prosperous 1929.
