An em inent eastern au th o rity
tells us th a t the Pacific coast, from
■ C alifornia to n o rth ern W ashington.
| will, w ithin th e next 50 years, be
the scene of one of th e g re a te st
| developm ents ever recorded. Due
I to its geographical location, its
ready accessibility to w orld m a r
kets both by w ater and rail tr a n s
p ortation, and because of ciim atic
l o n d il t o n s it is o n ly r e a s o n a b l e to
expect th a t here, in w hat is know n
as the Pacific coast area, will some
day be one of the densest ce n te rs
of population to be found any-
j where.
In th is are a a re th re e m ajor
, ports — San F rancisco, P o rtlan d
I and S eattle. Of these th ree only
lone, P o rtlan d , has a fresh w ater
h arb o r; th is alone is a d istin ct ad
vantage. But when we consider its
tem p erate clim ate and its location
w ith referen ce to th e other ports
it is not difficult to visualize the
d istric t in the vicinity of P o rtlan d
as tlie hub from w hich may be ex
pected to rad iate an alm ost u n
precedented grow th and expansion.
We of G resham are n atu rally
m ost in te reste d in th e developm ent
th a t can be expected in the com ing
years in our im m ediate vicinity.
It may be of Interest to know th a t
M ultnom ah county is alm o st the
sam e size and shape as th e Canal
zone and th a t of its to tal area
about 140,000 acres can be c u lti
vated. T he county can be divided,
roughly, Into three divisions—the
east o n e-th ird which is m o u n tain
ous; th e w estern one-third which
is hilly and contains th e city of
P o rtlan d ; and the ce n tral one-
th ird w hich is relatively level, con

uear the cen ter of th is d istric t is
in a position to tak e advantage of
th e rapid grow th th a t we can co n
fidently look fo rw ard to.
W ith th e engineering ability th at
is available today it would be folly
to say th a t riv ers and h ills offer
in su rm o u n tab le b a rrie rs to land
tran sp o rta tio n ,
n evertheless
we
avoid such o bstacles w herever pos
sible.
G resham , located as it is w ith a
m ountainous d istric t to the east,
ro llin g cou n try and the C lackam as
riv er to the south and the h ills of
w est P o rtlan d to th e w est—even
though the proposed T u alatin v al
ley tunnel is eventually co n stru c t
ed— w ith ra il and w ater tra n sp o rta
tion to the n o rth, and at th e th re s
hold of a g reat and grow ing city,
has m any advantages on w hich we
should capitalize. H ere a re grown
th e finest b erries and we offer no
apology to th e city of W oodburn in
sp ite of the claim th a t it is 'T he
W orld's B erry C enter'.
We are
producing a finer q u ality of w al
n u ts th an our m uch advertised
neighbor, C alifornia, to th e south,
an d no doubt w ill continue to excel
in oth er lines of h o rtic u ltu re and
ag ricu ltu re, in addition to rail and
w ater tran sp o rta tio n , five paved
highw ays rad iate from P o rtlan d
th ro u g h th e m ajor portion of the
d istric t trib u ta ry to o u r city.
We have here a people who are
good exam ples of the av erag e Am
erican citizen, a people who are
alert, p rogressive and to leran t,
w ho vote as they please and bow
to th e w ill of th e m ajority.
Witli th is so rt of a background
th e question th a t n atu ra lly p re
sen ts itself is: W hat does th e fu
tu re offer G resham and th e a d
ja cen t te rrito ry ?
Our main a rte ria l highw ays will
be widened to accom m odate the
ever increasin g num ber of slow
moving freight tru ck s in o rd er th a t
th e present roads co n stru cted o rig
inally for lig h ter passenger traffic
can be used en tirely for th a t p u r
Report of Condition of
pose, th u s m inim izing accidents
and speeding up traffic.
Some
w here in th e d istric t betw een 82d
stre e t and G resham will be located
a landing field of sufficient size to
accom m odate th e ex p ress
and
freig h t planes of the n ear fu tu re—a
field w hich in a re a will dw arf the
landing field a t p resen t in use in
P o rtiaud, w hile in its vicinity and
ad jacen t to th e tran sc o n tin e n ta l
ra il lines on th e n o rth and w ater
tra n sp o rta tio n on th e Columbia
will be developed an im m ense m an
u factu rin g d istrict.
It is quite
possible also th a t the south bank
of th e Columbia from the Sandy to
th e W illam ette w ill be dyked, w ith
a w ide boulevard trav e rsin g th e top
as a fu rth e r aid to solving the tr a f
fic problem s of th e fu tu re.
We m ust adm it th a t it is a m a t
te r of only a few years until
G resham and all the te rrito ry w est
to th e p rese n t city lim its of P o rt
land w ill be a p a rt of P o rtlan d but
we can and should develop a com
m unity here th a t w ill reflect the
sterlin g c h a racter of its citizens
long afte r the boundary lines of
our m unicipality have been oblit

of our neighboring city on th e
west.
