When the early day residents around The Dalles came down to Portland they took to the river boats to get around Rowena. Pioneering highway engineers got around by "snuggling close to her curving shoulders and climbing up and down, loop on loop. It was the long way around and a scenic way but it ate up the gas and killed time and many persons didn't like it.

Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr chairman, issued the following statement, Saturday, May 10: "We urgently request that you recommend to the Republican voters in Oregon a list of the most widely known and representative candidates for delegate-at-large to the Republican National Con vention so that voters who favor Eisenhower's nomination may not scatter and waste their votes among the 50 candidates who are now running for the 10 delegate positions. We fully realize the difficult and embarras sing task you will confront in choosing such a list from among the very many strong and worthy candidates who are on the ballot, but we are convinced that unless such a list is recommended by your Committee, the heavy Eisenhower majority vote will be dangerously scattered and diluted, and the concentrated minority vote for the Taft candidates might elect many of them. They should be defeated in their scheme of filing by petition to escape the moral and legal obligation of supporting the choice of the majority of the Oregon vot ers. The only way to defeat that scheme is to concentrate the majority Eisenhower vote on a list of candidates recommended by Ore gon's own Eisenhower Campaign Committee."
