Ills report oii this matter . will sh$w the great advantages" for both growth of wool and Its manu facture on the Pacific coast, including Oregon.' T " 'I am struck by the. wonderful pos sibilities of your stats to attract the wealthy tourist travel," said Mr. Eyer, at the Multnomah hotel; just before ins departure for southern uanrornia. "Vou have such magnificent scenery,, rlversr mountains, trees.! The beauty of th Columbia is unfcnown to the , people of the east. Why. we bo a nunorea m lies in ixs tngeies ro s under few pine or fir trees. ' Oood Xoads Heeded. ' 'Wa haven't anything Wee the acenlo , advantages In Bouthern Cali fornia, that you have. All you need is more good roads, i We are alive to 4th necessity and advantages or gooa Voads in California now. I see that some good roads are being built up and 'down the Columbia;, Like ours they will pay for themselves many times over In increased values and in tho attraction of travelers and tour ists. -1 have seen ail the best scenery Of Switzerland and most of Europe; Oregon has more. Good scenery, with good roads to get to It easily brings In men with money, first to see, and then to stay. We have proved it in Cau fornltu The state Is to spend $18, 000,000 on a highway there. Los An geles has voted 13,600,000 in addition to build connecting county roads. Riv erside San Bardlno and San Diego counties have each voted" over a mil lion each all in addition to the state "tund. We have built a road in one place costing $50,000 Just to get to the top of a hill with a rine view, n w had some of your waterfalls and great trjes and wonderful rivers to show from that hill we would spend half a million to get it in shape for automobiles to reach it. We need to build hundreds of miles of good roads in and around Los Angeles to get all our scenery displayed to advantage, while you can build a road out here any place and get all kinds of scenery In 25 miles. . "Many of our roads cost $10,000 a milo but they pay. Build roads here Just for the scenic views and with . such views as you offer the tourist trade we have in Los Angeles will pour In here. f Eco-nomy la shown. 'T h v will inflnil mnnav ' hulll in. Vest, develop,- attract population and produce the same effect as we have bad in Los Angeles. . That is a reali sation that good roads pay, . and pay well, when you have scenery to offer ith, it that puts the rest of this con tinent In the background. f lie was told of the scenic roads being built on the Columbia, and of the roads in southern Oregon, . "Yes,' be replied. "I have heard of them. 1 think they are all ri&ht. and will do for- a starter, but build roads, and more roads, ' and the best roads you possibly can. Let the roads match the scenery. Why, men come to southern California and spend half a million dollars to create a home by a bit of , scenery. They will do the same here it you just get tne roads around through the country so they can see It. Then they stay here. Then they invest their money here, and their presence and demands bring population. ' , "I must o back to California, but ,wnen some of these roads along the t-otumoia are nnisned i am coming back with a steamer load of tourists and their automobiles. Some of them will remain here, I am sure." American Bar Will Meet at Salt Lake Executive Committee Selects Bit for I 1915 Convention in TJtan; The Sat Zi August. New York, Jan. 9.
