T he S tate of Oregon, cham bers of
commerce, Bonneville enterprises,
and oth er agencies spend much
money an n u ally ad v e rtisin g the
s ta te ’s resources and a ttra c tio n s,
an d yet, someone w ants to build a
h a lf m illion dollar highw ay thro u g h
sagebrush d esert and leave off the
m ain lin e of travel a h alf dozen ac
tiv e com m unities, and m any miles
of improved areas.
A long the fifty m iles of proposed
road from Pendleton to Boardm an,
not one tow n or even a service s ta
tion, exist. It would be a speedw ay
th a t would save m otorists about six
m inutes from P endleton to P ortland.
If accidents occur in w in te r or the
h ea t of sum m er, or in sw eeping and
blin d in g w indstorm s, aid can come
only from passing m otorists who
w ill be im p a tie n t to get out of the
Inclem encies as quickly as possible.
Much more m ight be said ag a in st
th is projected dream , and will be
said if the project is attem pted and
s ta te money is to be spent to the
exclusion of more w orthy highw ay
construction.
No one seems to fath e r th e job of
the new survey and ju st now It is
said th a t it is only to keep a few
s ta r engineers busy, pending o th e r
w ork by th e state, w hich is good for
th e boys, b ut how about w hat may
follow?
