L
first class, and to fully fortify it, is to
leave the logical point Of attack open
to the mercy of hostile feet.
This is move in line with the nom
partisan preparedness program of the
general government, and is q serious
effort to safeguard the lives and prop
erty of the citizens of the Pacific
Northwest. It is argued that the
equipment of the Columbia river as
outlined, is absolutely necessary for
the protection Of the Northwest coast
of the United States. including Puget
Sound and the large naval investments
at Bremerton.
Boiled down, the argument, as set
forth by the chairman of the Astoria
committee, F. c. Harley, is as follows
The Columbia can and should be
made as impregnable as the Darda-
nelles or the Keil canal.
This can be accomplished by fortifi-
cations at its entrance and close within
its harbor and by the maintenance of
mines and submarines.
The Columbia should have the ad-
ditional arm of naval base of the
first class for speedy, mobilized re-
sistance of attack by q foreign fleet at
any part of our coast line from San
Francisco to the Straits of Juan de
Fuca.
Our fleet at Puget Sound would be
bottled up in the event of war with
Great Britain or her allies, and with
the Columbia river as the point of con-
centration of a large reserve it would
be possible to speedily send feet to
its relief, either to the Sound or to
other points on the coast as far as the
Southern Oregon line.
The Columbia has transcontinenal
rail lines and highways reaching di-
rectly by watergrade into the interior,
providing facilities for easy and expe.
ditious movement Of supplies and
troops.
The Columbia river basin contains
about one-third of the available unde-
veloped waterpower of the United
States, and is rich in undeveloped nj
trates for the manufacture of explo-
sives. Considerable coal deposits lie
within its confines or are directly trib-
utary to it.
These resources, available for our
own maintenance and defense, would,
in the present unprotected and help
less condition of the Columbia river,
be of immense advantage to an attack
ing force, and easy of capture.
