1956 A Boom Year tor Eslrcada?
We are a few short day3 into 1956. A ll of us
are interested in knowing what the new year will
hold for our town. If all the scheduled events come
to pass it should be a year of boom and progress for
the entire area. Let’s just look ahead a little to
some of the things that may happen.
1. Construction on the Mt. Hood Plywood plant
could very well begin some time in January. This
mill should be in operation in 1956.
2. There is an excellent chance that the rail
road into Estacada will be rebuilt in 1956.
3. PGE will begin work on its $17,000,000 hy
droelectric project five miles above Estacada in
the spring of 1956. This will mean that 500 to 700
men will be employed on this dam alone.
Personally, we feel that all three of the above
events will take place as scheduled and we think
they will have a profound effect on the entire econ
omy of Estacada.
There will be lots of activity in '56.
There will be a national election next year to
choose a new president of our country. Oregon will
either re-elect or reject Wayne Morse for another
six-year term in the United States senate.
On the local level there will be an election for
mayor of Estacada. Several councilman will be
chosen at the same time. In the past year a tremen
dous amount of civic interest has been generated
in local affairs. This interest may be reflected fur
ther in 1956 municipal elections by a record turn
out at the polls.
Early in 1956 Estacada‘s new water system will
be put into use. Improvements will be made in the
present sewer treatment plant.
For Estacada, 1956 will be a year of progress
and change. It will be a busy, full and interesting
year.
It m ig h t ev en b e a boom y ear.
Publisher Completes First Year
This month marks the end of your editor's first
year at the helm of your Clackamas County News.
When I say “ your Clackamas County News” I do
not say the words lightly ,but with a certain amount
of reverence and appreciation, for it truly is your
paper. You have the good fotune (and on this point
I know I can get arguments) of having an editor
who can make more mistakes and create less excite
ment without being hung, than any editor in our
county— with a couple of exceptions. Yoiu good
readers only have to remember one thing, that if
I do get o ff on the wrong foot, all you have to do
is sit down with pencil in hand and vent your own
feelings in printable verbiage. While as an indiv
idual, I may not agree with you, it is still your paper
and its pages belong to you.
You good people have been very patient and
more than considerate. Words cannot express the
appreciation for reader loyalty and our wonderful
renewal and new subserption response. The growth
of our subscription list places your paper well in
the forefront of weekly newspaper growth of any
weekly paper in Ord£on. The cooperation, loyaity
and support of our advertisers has been heart-war
ming and truly magnificent. This has not been an
easy year for your Clackamas County News. W e
went ahead with one of the most extravagant of
modernization programs in hopes of being able
to continue to merit your support. W e have our
reward, and just “ thanks” seems so inadequate.
Your real thanks will be our continued and more
conscientious efforts to do a better job of bringing
you a better Clackamas County News.
I am sorry that it has been necessary to raise our
subscription rates. I only hope that our paper and
operating costs will be stabilized so other increases
will not be necessary.
