Exposition Accommodation Bureau Aims to Curb Portland Extortion
Portland forms the Exposition Accommodation Bureau to secure fair room rates for Lewis and Clark visitors. A separate agency from the fair management will arrange reservations in private homes and other respectable lodging with offices at Union Station and the exposition grounds. The bureau, run by prominent locals, guarantees reasonable terms and central access via Portland streetcar lines to and from the fair.
