Af..r M..r r New Study Ordered In Road Link Project (Continued from Page One) Mine road, Ashley said, was that adverse grades of from 6 to 8 per cent would be encountered. It was the contention, he said, that easi er adverse grades were obtainabl? by way of Bradley Creek, although steeper grades would result on Ihe Calapooia side. Logging trucks would be traveling light on the steep grades, it was held, thus making the route more economi cal for hauling. The court, Ashley said, has not definitely abandoned the Bonanza route, but is anxious to find the most suitable road location and will continue engineering studies for that purpose. Fred Bonebrake, president of the Douglas County Taxpayers League, reports that some mem bers of that organization contend the proposed connection is un necessary. The opinion has been expressed, Bonebrake said, that the connecting road would receive little use for log hauling and that the cost is not justified by the traffic the road would carry. The league has called a public meeting at the Hotel Umpqua Civ ic Room at 2 p.m. Saturday to consider the matter.
