Stewart Geologist ***************************************** OREGON'S MINERAL INDUSTRY IN 1958 By Ralph S. Mason * The value of minerals produced in the State in 1958 was within a fraction of one percent of the all-time high reached in 1957 - despite a general business recession during the year. A preliminary estimate by the U. S. Bureau of Mines of the value of Oregon's mineral production is $42,118,000. Generally speaking, the Bureau bases its valuation figures on minerals as they leave the pit or mine. The value of the same minerals at point of use in the State or shipping point for out-of-State movement woulcl'be several times the above amount. If mineral production were reported in the same manner as other commodi ties in the State the value would be in the neighborhood of $100,000,000. Chrome mining came to an abrupt halt in May; Harvey Aluminum Company energi zed its two potl ines at The Dalles in August; cutbacks in zirconium produc­ tion were announced by Wah Chang Corporation in September; the first pound of uranium "yellow cake" was produced by Lakeview Mining Company in December; and Government support for quicksilver terminated December 31.

They were an innovation as so little had been done by any state in the Union. The Oregon parks system owes its beginning to the thought of highway beautification advocated by many leaders of the state, including the Governors, the early State Highway Commissioners and Highway Engi- neers.

  • Glisan, Rodney L. Collection
    Glisan, Rodney L. Collection Object ID VM1993.001.003 Scope & Content Series 3: The Outing Committee of the Multnomah Athletic Club sponsored hiking and climbing trips for its members. Rodney Glisan participated as a leader on some of these events. As many as 30 people participated on these hikes. They usually travelled by train to the vicinity of the trailhead, and then took motor coaches or private cars for the remainder of the way. Of the four hikes that are recorded Mount Saint Helens was the first climb undertaken by the Club. On the Beacon Rock hike Lower Hardy Falls on the nearby Hamilton Mountain trail were rechristened Rodney Falls in honor of the "mountaineer" Rodney Glisan. Trips included Mount Saint Helens Climb, July 4 and 5, 1915; Table Mountain Hike, November 14, 1915; Mount Adams Climb, July 1, 1916; and Beacon Rock Hike, November 4, 1917.
