It u r -url by Th oreln In -o -rUxj wiu 4m Onfn SUU Mour BY JOHN ARMSTRONG MKtt WrtUr, TO. Omwu Suggest casually that a trip to California would be fun, and most Oregoniana of modest menna look at you like you have rocks in your head and ask you sarcastically, "On what?" Yet a round-trip by automo bile can be made to one of the most scenic purta of California tn only three dnys, aeelng most all of western Oregon en route, and expenses kept to a mini mum almost any workingman can afford. We found this out on an Ore gonian motorlog to the Red wood Empire in the Oregon State Motor association white car early this month. Ideal loop trip from Portland to the Redwood Empire is down the inland route, U. S. 99 to Grants Pass, southwest over U. S. 199 to Crescent City (here the motorist can decide if he haa time, money and the de sire to drive south to Eureka) and along the coast route, U. S. 101. Only 20 mUea off U. S. 199, between Grants Pass and the state line, lie the Oregon caves, biiarre and scenic underground caverns. A side trip to the caves takes only about four hours. ' Travelers trom uregon can see plenty of redwoods by going only as far aa Crescent City, Cal.. but the added 170-mile round trip from Crescent City to Eureka is amply repaid with additional vistas of a rugged coastline, and many miles of roadside redwood groves. Humboldt bay, on which Eu reka now stands, was first dis covered by a sailing ship crew of the Great Russian American company in 1806. The bay was rediscovered by a party of gold miners who reached ft by land in 1849. An other gold-seeking party sailed . into the bay from the sea in 1850, the year In which the town of Eureka was founded. The tourist could spend sev eral daya sightseeing in this pic turesque, century-old seacoast town. Turning back north and up the coast, first stop la quiet Ar eata, at one time the turbulent Uniontown, terminus for the rich Trinity mines. This once- 'J' If ' J'.,'J. PI;. .

Just over 11 miles north of Eureka and only one mile to the right up Mad river is a 30-acre azalea reserve. Five miles fur ther up U. S. 101 is a perplexing airfield with forests 01 lights and wires. This is the landing aids experiment station, where fog dispersal experiments are being tarried on. Only 23 miles north of Eli reka, Trinidad Head juts out into the Pacific, scores of tiny fishing boats anchored in the lee of its southern shore. And now back into the red woods, the highway curving and winding through miles of state parks. The bureau of state parks overruled the highway commis sion, and forced the highway builders to lay out the road around the trees, instead of cut ting them down. One "must" stop is the Prairie creek state park and elk pre serve. Here live (and now mul tiply) the sole remaining band of Wapiti elk in California. And here's something that will be of interest to those who prefer, or find it economically necessary, to camp on their trip to the redwoods. The state of California has a very progres sive program of forest camps. The redwoods extend north of Crescent and even slightly over into Oregon. On U. S. 199 the Mill Creek redwoods. Just nine miles northeast of Crescent City, are unsurpassed in beauty. A recommended side trip is up the Smith river cut-off, which runs from the Smith river bridge on 199, about eight miles northeast of Crescent City, down Smith river to its mouth, which lies between Crescent City and Brookings. The cut-off is an old, but pass able road. The grandeur and size of the redwoods through which it runs are accentuated by the narrowness of the road.

Old Chinese Shopkeepers Frown on Modern Changes New York. June 2 (U.R) The unitiated might think there was another tong war brewing in New York s Chinatown. There's a change in the spring breeze that tinkles the glass beaded curtains along Mott and Pell streets. The youngsters in their smart American suits, are all for it. But the elders shake their heads in bewilderment, as though someone had handed them a plas tic chopstick. Town Must Co The prophets of modern hous ing have turned a coldly calcu lating eye on Chinatown and an nounced that the little oriental city-within-a-clty must go. A state housing commissioner put the project in words as business like as a divided report. China town, he said, isn't exciting or unusual or quaint it's plain squalid and dirty. The thin streets that wander timidly through the district aren't pic turesque, they're impossible. The musty buildings leaning one against the other, their bright red paint peeling oft In the sun well's they're not entrancing, they're mouldy traps. The commissioner says what's needed in Chinatown is a batch of spanking new skyscrapers big housing .developments with a shower for every family, an elevator to whisk folks up and down to their apartemnts and crisp, clean stores on the ground floor, with aluminum shelves glittering under the flourescent light. Landscaping Urged The commissioner doesn t want to go too far, of course. He rec ommends formal landscaping be tween the buildings with Chi nese gardens and bushes. He says some of the buildings could re tain the ancient style of architec ture by being crowned with pagodas.

In Ling Yuan's shop, there's nothing but gloom. Ling was selling powder ed dragon's teeth, as a sure cure for rheumatism, back in the days when a gentleman wbo had no pigtail didn't dare step into the streets for fear of being laughed to death. He can imagine -moving his stock to a carbon copy of an American drug store. But the picture he gets convinces him he's asleep having a nightmare. Mtrchant Unhappy It's the same for many another Chinatown shopkeeper. Cheng Din, a merchant of some thousand moons in China town, is unhappy but also not at all surprised at what's happen ing. He says he saw the hand writing on the wall 12 years ago. He has a little shop where he and his cronies gather to play mah jong, a kind of Chinese dominoes. Chang says: "I knew we were doomed the day they put a juke box and a soda fountain in the place."
