Legislation history (1948)

Second century progress?[edit]

""Oregon Freeways. ..Symbol of 2nd Century Progress" Was this the real slogan, or did someone mean 20th century progress (rather than 2nd)? 24.20.69.240 06:58, 27 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oregon became a state in 1859, thus 1959 would have been the beginning of Oregon's 2nd century. Katr67 (talk) 23:30, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Engineer roster[edit]

This page should not be a PR puff for the state government. Should we retain the absolutely unreference list of engineers? This is what I have removed, and I am setting aside pending consensus. Graywalls (talk) 13:30, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
