"We recognize the propriety of yaur Inquiry and thorctoro hereby author ize you on our behalf to say that this Commission, at a public meeting held at Portland on this date, adopted the following resolution: , " 'Whereas there exists in the pub i lto mind an Impression that undue l profits have heretofore been made by ! paving contractors in Oregon, I " 'Be it resolved that it will be the policy of the Highway Commission to j call for bids on all standard types of , pavement in open and fair competi j tlon and to awurd contracts to the j lowest responsible bidder who will be ; required to give a good and sufficient I guarantee for the permanency of his j work. " 'He it further resolved that in the event no satisfactory bid can be ob ! tuincd the Highway Commission will : proceed to do (ho work itself by force ! account after the purchase and in stallation of its own paving plant.' "The above resolution is intended as a frank statement to the public of what our policy will bo. If there is anything which iR not fully covered it is due to an oversight on our part and not due to any desire to evade any issue or question. "We may summarize our plans, as follows: We shall demand and en deavor to acquire for the state full i value for every dollar of public money expended. If the bond issue is adopt- ed we shall so far as possible, com mence work in every county in which work is to be done at the earliest possible moment. We shall not favor one county or locality over another, but will, to the best of our ability, be fair to the various sections of the state."

According to a compilation by the Stute Tax Commission, agricul ture in Oregon pays on approximately 2C per cent of the total .taxable prop erty, timber and lumbering on 19 per cent, city and towns on 41 per cent and public utilities on 14 per cent. Designated as they aro to meet the requirements of the state as a whole, these malu through an Ties will be built from city limits to slty limits, the cities alone having authority over city streets. The Highway Commis sion has announced that, where any of the main roads to be improved pass through the Binallcr towns and villages and the street is not already Improved, the Commission will hanh surface Oiat portion of the road in cluded Within the limits of such towns and Villages without additional Cost to such communities. When improved these main lines will serve not only the agricultural districts through which they pass, but will also serve centers of population the principal market places. They will be market roads as well as through state roads not luxuries. The State Highway Commissioners, who will have charge of the disburse' ment of the proposed $0,000,000 road bonds, have givon the assurance that all roads built under their supervision will bo constructed honestly. Con tracts for the work will bo subject to free and open competition. There will be no gouging of the public. No, Mr. Taxpayer, your taxes will not be increased one ten cent piece on account of the proposed $ti,000,000 good roads bonds. Hoth the interest and the principal of the entire bond issue ore provided by the increased automobile license and the stauding quarter mill state road tax. ft tt ! ks S K l V, . t H H f.
