B y Dewey Last Thursday evening, just as I was about to lock the shop at 5:30, Mrs. Phillips, chief oper ator, handed me the following tel egram, which, at the time didn’t hold any particular meaning to me and not until after I had eaten dinner and was relaxed in an easy chair: “Chetco harbor survey resolution authorizing U. S. Engineer review favorably re ported by the public works com mittee today.” At the moment it did not dawn upon me what this message con tained. I had khown of the pre vious harbor survey and how all appropria turns for this type of work had been forgotten during the war. But after recalling the visit last fall of Harris Ellsworth, congrt ssman f r o m the Fourth District, did tin meaning come to me with any reason. The old U. S. army engineers’ survey, made in the late '30s, is revived. Action toward creating ‘en given new life, and work is being don« am in no position to speak v ith am authority, and perhaps Uwri that our fedi il gm^ernmenf has a plan national defense, and $2.50 $3.00 omy of Oregon and northwest California would be given a defi nite boost should such, action be carried to completion. A special meeting of board of directors of Brookings Chamber of Commerce was held Friday evening, to plan assistance of any nature asked by the federal gov ernment. Certainly a wave of op timism accompanies the receipt of this telegram, vague as it may seem to the average reader. It looks like this section of Oregon, including Grants Pass, Medford, aiui eastward, are included, in a boom of new industries and business. Ultimate outcome of this proj ect, and the future of this area, depends largely upon the co-op eration given this movement. It will not stand up under disunity, lack of harmony, and petty bick ering. Behind the movement we must put a united front, and be willing to accept all favors the federal government may bestow. It doesn’t take a real intelli-» gent person to quickly sum up what a harbor could mean to this part of Oregon, now beset by transporation problems gigan tic in proportions, and so terrify ing that the economy of the area is almost strangled. A harbor in southwest Oregon would mean a new economy, perhaps so gi gantic that few could compre- hend the ultimate goal. Harris Ellsworth, I have often repeated through these columns, certainly works for the better- went of this district. his very men, too. He is thoughtful of his const if ut nts and lets them know what he's doing and what is be ing done in their behalf. He. at his visit here* last fall, promised to get a review if possible, and he did just that, thus the tele gram received Thursday. letters, telegrams. and data have gone out to hasten action on this project, and no doubt, Mr. Ellsworth is fully armed at m nfent put a light for more action on the har bor project. Time will tell, and herein lies the co-operation this area can give him in the battle. Fred Pflughoupt Dies, North Bend Fred Pflughaupt, who for many years lived :n Brookings, died at North Bend, last Friday, accord ing to word received here. He had been ill for over two years. Surviving are his widow, Mar garet and daughters, Helen Mc Kinley of North Bend, Nellie Jones of Crescent City, and nine grandchildren. The Pflughaupts lived in the home now occupied by Mr. and Mrs. August Johnson. Cub Scout Doings Den 1 held its meeting as usual Monday after school at the home of the Den Mother, Mrs. Horn.
