Abstract

"On the Yakima River, running at times along the highway, remained one of the last places for the Indian to dip-net salmon. It has been a natural fishing spot for generations of Indians. Many people of the area felt that the mound of dirt created during the straightening of the highway there, proved to be a traffic hazard. In winter it shaded the highway and ice would form, making it dangerous; as did the people stopping or going at a slow rate of speed in automobiles, to view the Indians fishing.
