If adopted, would be of great benefit to the city. ' One of r the greatest barriers In ths wey of terracing the heights is that In the division and reletting of -the prop erty which would be necessary to carry out his idea, many property-owners would object. It is thought, fearing they would not- receive . benefits to remu nerate them for the expense and the trouble, v It Is apparent that many-of the opponents to the scheme would nave to be forced Into Itne by action of the authorities, thus bringing about legal complications. . "Its scenlo beauty is brie of Portland's - greatest assets and - Portlanders" should . take advantage of It," says th mayor.
