	note = {74th Congress, 1st session, Senate report no.871, 1935. 2 p.  Senate Bill 501 (74th Congress, 1st session) had asked for a Coast Guard station at or near Taft. The chair of the Committee on Commerce asked the commander of the Coast Guard district for suggestions. He indicated that Taft was the best location. Among his reasons were, {\textquotedblleft}. . . that during the 10-year period from 1923 to 1933 the water-borne commerce in and out of the Siletz River amounted in value to more than 4 {\textonehalf} million dollars, consisting of rafted logs and fish; that during the calendar year 1934 to August 31, 52 log rafts crossed out over the bar with a total of 13,544,000 feet of logs; that during the fishing season there are between 20 and 30 small vessels operating out of this port, . . . that during 1934 the Yaquina Bay Station had 11 calls for assistance from Taft and vicinity.{\textquotedblright} Despite all these good reasons, the expansion of the Coast Guard {\textquotedblleft}would not be in accord with the financial program of the President,{\textquotedblright} and was not recommended to go further.  Taft never did get its Coast Guard station.},
