PORTLANDPLANS
WORLD EXPOSITION
Ocean-to- Ocean Highway CeIe-
bration Projected to Take
Place in 1925.

PORTLAND, Ore. Jan. 1.-Portland
is to have another worlds fair. The
summer Of 1928 has been selected
by local business men as the time for
the exposition. Portland's first
worlds fair was the Lewis-and-Clsrk
Exposition OF 1903. concentrating
the hundredth anniversary of the dis
covery Of the Columbia River, and
for that matter the whole OF the in
land empire Of Idaho, Washington,
Oregon and Montana.
Although the new proposed worlds
fair was first preached as peace
and progress exposition, 1t is now
being considered as an ocean-to-ocean
highway celebration. 1t is also
planned to make II an electrical fair
in an effort TO display before the
world the wonderful hydro-electric
possibilities OF the Pacific Northwest.
II is practically certain that a
paved highway from the Columbia
river to the Atlantic tidewater will be
completed by 1925. and the proposed
exposition will be to celebrate the
joining of the roseway of Portland,
Ore. with the elm covered streets OF
Portland, Ne. as we'll as other large
Eastern cities.
II is proposed to make the we'd
ding Of highways the motif for the
first great worlds fair TO be held
following the World war. Articles
of incorporation are being prepared
and will be filed with the State au-
thorities as soon as possible. Julius
J.. Meier, prominent Portland citizen,
and widely-known in the PACING
Northwest, is chairman of the COM
mittee which now has the matter
under consideration.
