Highway History
Wven before the seaport, of Florence
was founded in 1SS7, various plant were
considered for transportation Connec
tions with the populous east and New
York, over the McKcnzie Pasa. How
ever, not until Ihe automobile establish
rtd itself oh a tnttwcontineiital factor on
the Lincoln Highway, nttoiit the gin
ning of the worhl war. did definite plans
develop for the present Central Oregon
Highway, as outliued on the map here
with. This map i the third and latest
one issued by the Central Oregon High
was association and shows approximate-'
ly the final location of what will soon
heroine one of Jibe nation' great thor
oughfares. At the. beginning of this
traiiKMrtntion propaganda there was not
even a bridal trail leading from the In
terior of Florenco harbor; today, at sea ,
sonal tunes you can drive from Florence
to New York over the Central Oregon
Highway and Its co-ordinated eastern j
connections. True, this oVeaa to ocean
highway is yet rough, largely unmarked
and verv little known. -
Will Rapidly Develop
Now that it lia become a riemonstrat- !
ed fact, its improvement will resjtond to j
the rapidly glowing demand for high- ,
way service. Only a short time ago a
tx wheeled auto truck made the run ,
from Ios Angeles to New York. .1507
miles in six days, 15 hours and t min
utes running time, with a load includ
ing ca r. of 2 1 M 0 pounds. Th is i s a
demonstration of what heavy trucks can
do on the long haul and with every wide
improvement tu truck construction is ad
ded many million of dollars to our high
way efficiency. Ho long as this improve
ment in power driven vehicles continues,
the demand for better highways will in
crease until every important highway is
made HtaiKlard.
With Improoved Highways Will Come
Improved Harbors
As soon as this Cemral Oregon High
way bm-ome standard and connected
with the Lincoln Highway and Yellow
stone Trail. Oregon and Idaho will join
in asking congre for a federal appro
priation to deepen still more the Flor
ence harbor to admit even larger idiips.
Already $(150,000 has been spent on its
jetties rendering the bar channel deeper
and more permanent and i"t,IK0 placed
lu the present river and harbor bill for
dredichiK the inside channel so that lar

The wooden automobile wheel which
we know by its harmonious kri-kotn-rici
during iliu months of July and August
fails to negotiate the ice-covered pave
ment at thi1 street intersections here iu
Kugene. in other towns and especially iu
Portland. Few days ago while the wri
ter was in Portland it was au unusual
sight, to see perfectly gitod automobiles
piled up along the parking strips wit h
broken wheels, not counting the incon
venience, more or less injuries to drivers
and passengers, caused by having wooden
wheels on their cars,
Americans who look to Kurope for
new styles in motor cars, as well as iu
clothes, will be interested to know that
one of the most distinctly marked style
movement in foreign cars is that toward
steel disc wheels, according to J. G.
Roppet, local disiributor of (iier Turae
Steel Wheels. Mr. Koppel has just re
ceived a report of the Ki'cat automobile
show at London, where the finest Brit
ish, French. lMpaii and Italian cars
were exhibited.
Out of itite hundred forty-five makes
of cars on display, luvording to the Tunrc
distnliulor s mrormattou, twenty-six p
cent were eouipped with some form of
the steel disc wl I. This is a ery lare
increase over U'-L
"Only the aristocratic chiss usch iui-
tnumhilcK in the old ounirics, says
Mr. Koppel. who is uu ex-aristocrat him-
M'lT, hearing a uolilemau s title, now dis
carded iu his mother country ( Russia)

offensive against the ltolsheviki In the
Far Fast. They insist on having the
smartest looking cars that can he turned
out.
i The New York show is not over yet.
but the enthusiastic reception of the disc
wheel on the other side by such discrimi
nating buyers as these is certainly a
ompliment to our own American ideas
of syle. for here too, in New York the
demand for wheel." of disc design is
growing amazingly.
'Tunrc Is particularly fortunate in be
ing nhle to meet this style demand with
a steel wheel ot heautiful appearance so
designed that it retains all the advanta
ges of older types, with- mures, me
vulve steins eniue outside where tire in
flation is easy. Also Tunrc steel wheels
take standard demountable rims so that
tire changing is accomplished in the usu
al way without the extra cost, extra
weight and extra work of buying, carry
ing and using an entire spnre wheel."
And it is a wheel which will negotiate
any ice covered pavement and if unavoid
able, they can hit the curb without col
lapsing, which is impossible with the old
fashioned wooden wheel.
