Mr. Page, irtio spoke at the Thursday lunch eon of thq Marion-Polk County Realty association, pointed out that unless' a general effort i3 'made to capitalixe upon natural "scenery, green mountains and good water, many ot the benefits from tourist travel will be missed. - Californlang are used to dry, brown hills and hot camping places and they will be unable to resist the opportunities offered by .- the northwest, -he said.

''The greater the population and growth of southern California the greater will be the demand for Oregon-products." Lack of ' rain is keenly felt throughout that state, ?'r. Pa:e reported, and hen he asked why hay was not shipped in from the northwest he was told that It was .to a great extent but that the rrice was very high and all could not afford its importation. Tia Juana proves a great disap pointment and disillusion to those whohave heard so much of the famous gambling and sporting cen ter the speaker said. It is locat ed in a desert, its buildings are ramshackle and prices exhorbit ant. Referring again to Los Angeles, Mr. Page said that its growth was enormous and that it was esti mated more than 100.000 people had located there in the last few months. Building permits issued last year were for 24,000 resi dences, 85 apartments and 76 ho tels. Apartments are scarce and rents high, single apartments renting from $75 to $250 a month. Skilled tradesmen are out of work and good automobile mechanics are paid only $25 a week, he said. L03 Angeles is planning on a city Of 5,000.000 in the next 30 years and has plenty of room for the development, Mr. Page said. For 18 miles from the heart of Los Angeles tracts have been laid out into lots. The city limits now con tain 456 square miles. Mr. Page commented upon the number of retired Iowa farmers who have moved to Los Angeles. There were 90,000 registered at the last annual picnic. Citrus fruits are the chief orchards in the southern part of the state and expenses in maintaining these are enormous. During cold spells it costs upward from $500 an acre merely to keep smudge pot3 going in order to prevent the fruit from freezing.
