CHANNEL CHART CITED Speaker Says Jhat Wonderful Chanc-5 Faces Tfiis Section in , Way cf Shipping Trade. , Portland has a wonderful port op portunity. The inland position is an advantage, not a. handicap. A net work of water transportation should center at Portland. ! Development of adjacent industry is vital.
