BY RICHARD L. NEUBERGER
A few year ago If the people of
uregon wanted to glimpse me iarg
it evidence of man 'a Ingenuity, an
extensive journey was necessary.
They had to span the hemisphere
to Egypt to view the great pyramid
or uiten.
Now. this mission can be acconv
pllshed In much simpler and less
expensive rasmon. ah mat is
quired is a 861-mile automobile
drive from Portland. The change In
traveling distance is not because the
great pyramid has been magically
transported to the Pacific north
west, but because the great pyramid
is no longer the largest man-made
object on earth. It has been super
aeded by Grand Coulee dam.
Grand Coulee is tremendous. It
challenges verbal description. It Is
like some relic or the massive and
thundering Ice age that still sur
vives In an era of smaller and lesser
creations. The only way to under
stand Its unbelievable proportions
Is to point your automobile north
eastward and drive tne wi miles
necessary to see it for yourself.
On the way to Grand Coulee you
will pass Bonneville dam, as did the
white mo tor log car of The Orego
nlan and the Oregon Stats Motor
association. Perhaps your reaction
will be the same as that of Harris
Ellsworth, publisher of the Rose
burg News-Review. En route up the
Columbia along the Washington
bank of the river, he looked at Bon
neville. "By gosh!" he said, "that's
some project Just get a look at
those piers and penstocks."
Later, Passing Remark
Two days later the mo tori og ear
came back past Bonneville, headed
down the river this time. In the
Interim Ellsworth had seen Grand
Coulee. He viewed Bonneville with
out comment for several moments.
Then he turned to an astonished
government guard standing nearby.
"Nice cute little dam you have here,"
. he blithely remarked. "Do the boys
take It down at night, or do they
work on it all the time?"
There Is but one method of ap
predating the slxe of Grand Coulee
see It for yourself. However, a few
comparisons with Bonneville may
be of Interest Bonneville will be 170
feet high. Grand Coulee 600 feet
Bonneville will be ISO feet thick,
Grand Coulee 550 feet Bonneville
will be 1800 feet long, Grand Coulee
4300 feet
To reach this monumental edifice,
you drive via U. S. 830 up the Colum
bia gorge from Vancouver to Gold
endale. Then on U. 8. 97 to Ellens
burg, going through Toppenlsh and
Yakima. This consumes about 240
of the miles between Portland and
Grand Coulee. From EHensburg,
which Is near the center of the state
of Washington, you point your radi
ator cap directly east to Vantage,
wher the highway spans the Co
lumbia on a spectacular bridge.
Then you head northward to Qulncy.
It Is on this stretch that the
motorist for the first time appre
ciates the bigness and Immensity
of the region Into which he Is driv
ing. The canyon walls of the Co
lumbia become more precipitous.
Weird and towering rock forma
tions flank the highway. Lofty hills
roll away to the horizon like the
folds of some monstrous blanket:
Occasional farmhouses are dots
against the background of wilder-1
ness grandeur. Here and there are
the ruins of dry-farming experi
ments that failed mute and tragic
reminders of the great irrigation
project that lies ahead.
First Sight of Coulee
You drive almost due north, go
through the mineral-springe health
resort of Soap lake, and there,
visible from the center of town, Is
the opening of one of the remark
able geological phenomena of all
time the Grand Coulee of the Co
lumbia river. It is like the entrance
of a huge trough not a trough dug
by men with steam shovels and dy
namite, but a trough gouged by
some supernatural power transcend
ing all the efforts of all the men
who ever lived.
Through this vast declevlty the
road goes. You drive up It with
mingled awe and wonder. On either
side the cliffs are as sharp-brlnked
as shoe-box edges, A mammoth
chisel could not have carved them
stralghter. The bottom of the coulee
Is flat and dotted with an occa
sional rock formation or lake.
At the end of this boxlike chasm,
the road circles up a sharp cliff
and you discover yourself In an-:
other coulee the exact replica of the
first. A 400-foot precipice as straight
as the front of a safe separates the
upper and lower coulee.

They are O. G. P. Markhui, the
engineer In charge of public re
lations, and S. E. Hutton, the di
rector of publicity. Markhus Is a
whimsical, bald Scotchman who
wears a cap and smokes a pipe.
Hutton has a little goatee and looks
like the late Lincoln Steffens. They
are quiet, philosophic individuals,
who love to amplify Grand Coulee
to bewildered persons who cannot
understand just why the federal
government Is spending more
money in eastern Washington than
it cost to build the Panama canal.
Briefly, here Is the why of Grand
Coulee: The Columbia basin project
is a chunk of potentiality fertile
land twice as large as Rhode Island.
To bear In abundance all the crops
native to the northwest all It needs
is water. Water it can get If the
Columbia Is diverted back into the
coulee, and thence run from the
coulee through irrigation canals
to the Columbia basin project. This
can be accomplished by throwing
the world's largest chunk of mason
ry across the river at the head of
the coulee, and generating enough
power to put the water back where
it flowed thousands of vears azo.
Thus, Grand Coulee dam.
Roads Over Project
There are automobile roads all
over the various parts of the proj
ect, and the bureau of reclamation
Is co-operative In enabling tourista
to drive to the various points of in
terest Blasts are set off at specified
times each day, and thus motorists
know exactly when to be on hand
for the most spectncular feature of
the construction work.
As you come back, everything
seems smaller than when you went
up. Bonneville dam was not the only
object that Impressed Harris Ells-
! worth as being smaller after he had
seen Grand Coulee. Even the cliffs
flanking the river looked less mas
sive than the great granite walls and
j bluffs near the biggest man-made
edifice on earth. Grand Coulee is
! the Colossus of Rhodes among the
! dams of the world, and everything
iooks less significant and or less pro
portions after the ultimate has been
seen.
