One particular road In discussion was the new market road up Drift Creek Into the Victor Point dis trict oo which. It has been assured complete grading will be done to tne victor Point corner this com ing summer. Next year. 1933 It Is planned that this road will be graded to the Union Hills district. Another road talked about was the Silver Creek Falls loop. The chamber and other Interested par ties are working very closely with the county court towards providing the most desirable roadway In this district, which will be located so as to offer the greatest scenic value; to the tourist. Among other roads discussed was the Cascade Highway which has been placed on the county highway map as a market road and which Is practically all graded and partially pavoa irom stay ion to the Clacka mas county line near Marquam. Thlj highway Is being actively sponsored by a special committee composed of the best representa tives from all of the counties through which It passes. Dr. P. A. Loar of fillverton, presi dent of the Cascade Highway as soclatlon la working for Its early completion. Its Southern terminal Is Eugene, and the northern one Is Portland. Tills route, following closely along the foot-hills of the beautiful Cas cades shortens the distance between these two cities about 26 miles. Intersection with the Santlam Highway, for which the county court has already appropriated si oo.oou, will be made at Stay ton. This will place Portland about 73 miles nearer Bend than does the present route over the Mc- Kenzle Pass and there will be no grades over 0 per cent. Exponents of the Cascade hih way claim that It's completion should divert a goodly part of the traffic now passing over the Pacific Mignway, and In so doing, will re lieve It of a great portion of the wear and tear it is now suffering. The stata highway omr.ilsston'e reported plan for the widening of the Pacific Highway between Salem and Eugene which Dr. Loar and committee states would be un necessary If the Cascade Highway were in operation within the next three years. Substantial development of the foot-hills of the valley would also develop that whole section of the country from the increase of travel, It was claimed, Tho Cascade Highway committee will be represented before tho Oregon legislature on all matters peTtalntng to highway construction.
