[or-roots] Rt. 1, Salem, Oregon - in 1934

[Eugene Melvin]

While I was at the Main Library in downtown Portland doing some research I 
was told by an librarian that they have the ability to do address 
conversion.  I am not sure if it was for the whole state or just Portland. 
Hope this helps.

Eugene
