The location of the larger
cemetery (50,000) at Portland
established the transportation
maximum at 100 miles for the

65 miles inland from the (Pacif
ic) coast and about 30 miles
south of Portland."
Says the report:
"Portland, as the largest city
in the state and therefore a na
tural point of interest, is an
ideal location for a national
cemetery, being situated in a
country of great natural beauty
It Is also the center of very
large Industries, such as lumber

Klamath Falls was designated
for the other cemetery because
it is the largest city in southern
