gin ' planning summer vacations
. in Oregon and Washington, ac
cording to U. S. Page, who recent
ly returned from an extended trip
through California. 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; OREGON STATESMAN,; SALEM,: OREGON
ous of California, particularly Los
Angelea," Mr. Page continued.
''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.
A New York man hit a police
njan and escaped, but it isn't a
ery healthy practice.
