. ' Advices were '- received In . Portland
last week1 that 'Henry S. Graves, chief
-forester at Washington, would be in
,.the northwest soon en route to Alaska.
rfPresident"Colt then wired Mr. Graves,
... urging that he stop1 in Portland for a
day. This invitation has been accepted
: and Mr, Grave will be here Saturday,
July 17, when,, with a representative
body of. business man, be will be taken
(".over- the highway to view , the land,
ft' which It la proposed to have set aside
. as a great recreation ground. ..
v The land in the project is located in
- a strip 23 miles long and varies from
- one and one-half to two miles 1 wide.
" The area, is composed, to a great ex
tent,, of the breaks of the Columbia
river and is exceedingly rough, steep
"and rocky, 'but from a scenic stands
"''polnk, of fers advantages unequaled , on
- -' a mountain automobile road anywhere
"In the world. .
'.' Since, the Columbia river highway Is
'located, on privately owned land for
. 7 "'much of the .distance, the points at
:'which the national forest lands cross
"wlll 'provide . picnic and -recreation
' grounds for thousands of people for
years JoLjcQme.... -..J $ ;
The report to Washington says, that
-; while .all but narrow belt between
the cliffs and' the -Columbia--fiver is
.. exceedingly- rough. - and inaccessible,
, ,yet trails are already being constructed
at 'great expense to reach the points
. . of greatest scenla beauty and that it
will be but & short time until the
J many waterfalls and rocky gorges and
the most sightly points will be made
accessible to the public. v
-- " Scenio Possibilities Greet.'
r-" "As-an -example, the trail to Larch
--mountain will soon be completed, as
--will the trail from Gordon fails. The
"-two falls are "about oneJbaif , mile
apart. Sightseers may make the trip
j over ' one trail - and return over the
' - other, " thus providing a short trip, or
-for an ' extended Journey into the
mountains jean" take - either " trail "f for

In a letter to the forest supervisor,

"Ins my opinion the creation, by Che

"With a series of trails through the
government lands along the Columbia
river highway to ; the - higher eleva

along the great roadway will be
In a position to make side trips of
Interest Many, trails on easy grades
can be built to the waterfalls high In
the mountains, ; the " lakes, glaciers,
snow fields and on, to Mount Hood.
.Tt wiU give another angle to the
features along the highway since par
ties of mountaineers bent on scaling
peaks, or taking hikes through the
forests, would find the highway the
Ideal place to start on the trip Into
the Cascades. It also haa another fea
ture. This fs trail trips by parties
desiring, to use horses. ' . " ?
"The highway itself with the num
erous side trips' and the great moun
tain country It opens up together with
the marvelous river scenery serves to
combine most . of the features of the
world's greatest playgrounds."
When Forester Graves was In Port
land, October 8v 1914, he delivered an
address before the . Progressive Busi
ness Men's club, taking for his sub
ject "Some Problems of the. National
Forests." l : . ' - '
At that time the Question of using
the forest regions ;f or recreation pur
poses was 4 suggested by Forester
Graves and In part he said:
Begarded as aratural Xesource.
"We regard ; the recreation use of
these forest regions as a; natural re
source which should be developed. The
building of highway through the Cas
cade mountains -will not only connect
farming communities with a market
and open up forests for greater use,
but will make available one of the
greatest scenic regions of the, world.
I cannot pass ' this subject- without
mentioning the public service that is
being done by Mr. Wemme (now de
ceased) in his efforts to develop the
Barlow road and "the efforts of other
public spirited' men who are- giving
their time nd money for similar proj
ects." - ' - -.

ester Graves from the Chamber of
Commerce; President Colt has briefly
outlined the-eost of the Columbia river
highway including all of the largest

SAFETY EDUCATION IS i t

mission. . ',
The present" popular movement f 01
Safety First Is of ; recent . origin. Not
that danger la new to the human
race. Far from It. Every year since
the beginning the - young and strong
have been carried away ' by sudden
death. Xong MT - nien 4 learned to
guard against perils -that beset them.
It became primal I Instinct. A cougar
sneaking, listening and peering in
the woods ' of Oregon is1 one of the
original adherents of the Safety First
idea. Bo, it was with the human race.
Men were wary of the perils of ani
mal force. - All nien went armed. The
instinct still remains. We still fear
acute violence. Children are told that
if they are not good the bogles or
bears will get them and many a little
youngster has seen these creatures
in his dreams. But the practical dan
ger of attacks , by wild animals is
now Infinitesimal and the blessings
of good government have made aU
most unnecessary any precautions by
the Individual against an assault by
his neighbor, I , ; -
Modern Safe Xa Xts Saaasds. -
; The old dangers have passedaway
but a multitude of new dangers have
coma and society has not yet adjusted
Itself to the changed condition. The
power . of steam . has drawn- men into
great factories where they : are- sur
rounded by grinding gears and whir
ring.: saws. Increased production in-,
yolves the . more rapid handling of
materials. Swift " transportation' , of
multitudes . by means of steam and
electricity whirls many men to death
annually. , And - there has appeared
upon the streets a four wheeled vehi
cle rubber tired and run by gaso-.
line, which.-- Judged by the voraolty
of its appetite for human life, is a
thousand fold more terrible than the
grizzly bear., ' These are, hazards - of
modern life. They strike when least
expected, and no man, woman or . child
Is ; etempt f rom their attack-. - . Few
realise their nature or the f earful
ness of their consequences,; and it is
for the purpose of spreading . infor
mation concerning these - accidents
that the movement for. safety educa
tion is beins. inaugurated. x - -
What is the greatest factor In the
Bolution of this- : , problem? .'Simply
stated, it is' this: 1 Educate the man.
lt-ls an extremely superficial treat
ment of the subject of. Industrial
accidents. .to say that the laborer ;ts
negligent anil that he should -avoid
these dangers. : -The experience of - no
one factory can be sufficient to; show
all the dinnn In in Imtnittrv ' TTmi
then can one laborer in that factory!
Judge intelligently of f his danger
If he has- not, the facts before him:
if. perhaps, he has ; never heard of
accidents in his particular occupation.
A careful man msj well ' become un
mindful of danger If he has r no rea
son to believe - that : it exists, or if
he works in a mm where there Is a
general atmosphere of ; carelessness.
And naturaHy; negligent man way
be stimulated to: exereise a high de
gree of cart if placed in g, mill where
Safety First' is preached and prac

then largely lies tn educating-men in
the nature v of hazard ijt surround
them. t; .

""In many" of the- states ihl move
ment for safety-educatlon: is already
well under way. T The publio is being
aroused, school I children are being
lectured, ' workmen in mills are .being
hng and the general magnitude of "the
undertaking. - i
, President Colt's letter Is as follows :
"The Forester, Forest Service,
"Washington, D. C
"Dear Sir;
"Relative to the classification of the
national forest lands along the Colum
bia river highway, as chiefly valuable
for use by the public for purposes of
recreation. ' .,,.-. .,..-. ,.o: , - r .
. "This movement was Inaugurated ,by
the Portland Chamber of Commerce
which is composed of , 4600 business
men. We are deeply interested In the
withdrawal of this public land lying
parallel and adjacent to the sou tit bank
of the Columbia river, between-Port
land and Hood River, for we are spar
ing neither money, labor nor talent to
make this highway one of thej most
scenic in the world, . ;-a : ,l ! '
"vv-: Vl.. ICuch Money . Spent. ''1.'V!;.
- 'The length 1 of the highway from
Portland to Hood River is 66 miles. In
the past 18 months we have epent
1725,000 In the construction of the
highway, which at no point exceeds m
grade of five per cent. The roadway
throughout is 24 feet wide, and 12 re
inforced concrete bridges have ' been
built at a cost of $150,000, making, (a
total expenditure to data of $875,000.
"We ' are now ' hardsurfaclng the
highway at a' cost of 816,000 per mile.
Forty-three miles of It will be paved
by . "December 1, 1915. Tou can, there--fore,
- appreciate - our deep ' concern In
the matter of having the greatest pos
sible area of public land adjacent t
the highway forever set aside and
dedicated to the public for gacreation.
1 "A strip of -public land three' miles
wide and approximately 23 miles long
would embrace an area valuable chief
ly for its matchless scenery. - It la
composed largely of ' gigantic - rocky
palisades, canyons and -: mountain
peaks. -Its perpendicular cliffs rise In
many places 2000 . to 8000 feet 'sheer
from the Columbia river's edge. Much
of this land will be made accessible
to the public by trails. Three' trails
from . this highway have been built
within the past 60 days. One from
Multnomah falls to the top of Larch
mountain, by a civic organization
through popular subscriptions at a
cost of about $5000; another along
Gordon falls, built by two public spir
ited citizens at a cost of $1500 and
dedicated to them by the public. The
third trail was constructed by, the for
est service near Eagle creek, which we'
understand the publio will be per
stimulated to greater care. Pictures,
printed warnings, posters, statistics
graphically portrayed, . these are the
means used Jn the new movement. Ail
hands from the. employer down work
ing together for a decrease of acci
dertts, this Is the new Industrial ideal.
The difficult problem is to stimu
late the Imagination to a, realization
of danger. Just as the mind was
awakened to an Instinctive knowledge
of ' the . old dangers of brute force,
For example: A year of two ago Jn
one of the cities of this state, a
ghastly murder occurred. A fiend
in human form entered a house at
night and took the life of sv little
girL -Public sentiment was aroused.
Excitement ran high. Rewards were
offered and police officers searched
every ppssibie dew. s The next night
sleeping porches were deserted. Many
citizens, especially women, did not
close their . eyes Until daybreak. It
was such an event as gripped the im
agination.
The same month there were dozens
of Pen: and worasn who went to
their death In the various hazardous
occupations and walks of life In the
state, and hundreds were severely In
jured, xvo unusual comment was ex
cited. No rewards were offered hv
Lthe publio for the prevention -of such
misnapg, .. no one -.outside of the im.
mediate f amlllea lost any sleep. These
f Injuries 1 were ; taken as the usual
Mpwwa. inciaents or every day
business. -These were not such events
as appealed to . the . Imagination. And
the "thousands of Oregon laborers
worked on exposed to the same dan
gers. Crime, involving personal vio
lence. Is hideous and--deplorable, and
yet s indiff arenas - to the hazards of
everyoay - lire la ten fold more terri
ble in its results. And the next sten
In. Industrial and social progress In
Oregon is to awaken employers and
workmen "to realize this fact. Tht
is tne task . or sarety education.

service of his house was satisfactory.
Now, why couldn't ; he sell more of
