But Morrow County must make the first step. We must first provide an adequate highway to the river. It must be a highway that is open throughout the entire year and one that will stand up under the gruelling test of heavy motor traffic. To do this we must vote our road bonds and cooperate with the State Highway Commission. And then we must get in touch with those Portland men who are advocating this line of river boats and assure Ihem of our support. It seems incredible that a river the size of ihe Col umbia should not be utilized for navigation purposes. From the very beginning this country has been system atically bled by the railroads charging extortionate pass enger and freight rates and giving nothing but the most rotten service in return. And any effort to open the river lo navigation has met with a most stubborn insistence at the hands of the roads.
