The air is starting to clear on the Chetco Cove Chetco River Improvement projects in Brookings, wo recent meetings, one by the Chetco River Improvement group with Harris Ellsworth, and the other by thJ Chamber of Commerce meeting jointly with a Medford delegation, and Harris Ellsworth, have brought out a much clearer picture of what is attempted and what is contemplated. . . . We think of the situation is this. The Brookings Chamber of Commerce has for years been interested in the Chetco Cove project, with an eye to making Broo - ings a deep-water -harbor, which could be one of the best from San Francisco to Portland. This would lift the community out of the small town picture and make about 22 m illion d ollars of th e money repaid •>> v eterans m ade a p art of the 7 mi ion oane o levy was required to finance the program, Sev 'ral hundred 1 ousan o this loan money has been used in the Chetco area.
