Holmes, two senators representing four Oregon coast counties today in troduced a Senate Bill author izing the issuance of S12,600,000 j in highway bonds for the elimin tion of what they called "the coast highway's No. 1 bottle neck." The bill is sponsored by Sens. R.F. Chapman, representing Coos and Curry counties, and Andrew J. Naterlin, representing Lincoln and Tillamook counties. Would Eliminate Curves It would make possible the elimination of tho 38 miles of curves now existing on U. S. 101 between Gold Beach and Brook ings. The sponsors said it would benefit an four of Oregon's major industries logging and lumbering, agriculture and dairying, tourists, and the sea food packing business. The measure was introduced after a week end conference with Gov. Holmes. U. S. 101, the governor was told, is the state's third most important highway, and the sum needed to eliminate the curves and realign this project cannot be met under normal allocation of highway funds from all five of the state's highway districts. A spokesman said the nro- posal had the unqualified sup port of all seven Oregon coast counties including the county courts, cities, Chambers of Com merce and hundreds of individ ual wholesale and retail busi nesses along the 400 mile coast line. Verne Ayers, manager of the Oregon Coast Association, said freeing the coast route "from this bottleneck would also make the building of the Astoria bridge a considerable more fea sible undertaking, since it would create a traffic volume . . ." An additional factor, he said, is the value of the Coast high way as a defense route. Any at tack from an enemy nation, he observed, would come in at tempted establishment of beach heads along the coast.
