J osephine C ounty B ank G rants P ass ,O regon Voters of Oregon To the The taxpayers of Portland and Multnomah County are not only willing but anxious to provide the Port of Portland with needed funds for dredging our River Channel to the sea. The Committee that formulated what is known as the Port of Portland and Dock Commission Consolidation Bill under the numbers 310 and 311 on the ballot insisted, however, upon weighting down the measure with an enormously expensive real estate scheme, and by a formal vote turned down the request of taxpayers that the Swan Island scheme and the River Channel scheme be presented as separate measures. Refusing to be forced to swallow something they cannot approve, Multnomah County is expected to vote adversely to the whole scheme by an overwhelming majority. Having done this, they will then lie ready to vote for any needed amount for improving our River Channels. A Com mittee of the City Club has submitted a detailed analysis of the measure showing that it means an ultimate expenditure of at least $40,000,000. Our Chamber of Commerce and other civic bodies with all of our river pilots and steamboat owners and others have protested against it. At least twelve form er and present members of the Port of Portland and the Dock Commission have declared against it. A majority, if not all, of our City Commissioners oppose it The Committee of 15 itself that drafted the measure is divided. The Taxpayers of Portland Appeal to You in a spirit of fair play to save this county from the imposition upon us of such an overwhelming and paralyzing debt as this measure contemplates. It would lie deemed offensive if we gave expression to what we believe to be the selfish and ambitious political motives that have inspired the measure which is submitted with a distinctively deceptive title. We simply appeal for fair play and a decent consideration of the hopeless plight in which this community will find itself if the measure carries. As citi zens of outlying counties who will not have to pay a dollar of the debt imposed, we appeal to you to consider what would be your feelings if Multnomah County should try to impose a similar burden on you. Our interests in a general way are mutual. Tt Is our sincere judgment that the success of this measure will seriously re tard, instead of promoting, the development of this port and that the state at large will in return suffer severely as a consequence.
