(1) Paving They get the $50,000,000 by assum ing that 1000 miles of hard surface will cost $16,000 per mile, whereas the facts are, it can be built for less than $10,000 per mile. (2) Grading in Preparation. They also assume that it will cost $10,000 per mile to prepare the-grade ready for this hard surface. Most of these grades arc now fairly well prepared and can be put in proper shape to receive a hard surface at a cost of $500 per mile. There are some stretches where the cost of grading will be much more than that but the average cost the State over for preparing these roads for a hard surface will probably not exceed ft fc. THO .

NEUHAUSEN & CO., 703 Lewis Bldg., Portland, Ore. For Oregon Highway Commissioner $1500 to $2000 per mile. Nearly all of the counties are in shape to do that without bonding or even increasing their road tax. (3) Post and Forest Roads. Then they add $18,000,000 to this (budget by saying that it will cost $12,000 per milo to improve 1500 miles of post roads, and then say that 600 miles of forest roads will cost $10,000 per mile, or $6,000,000 more. Fall of Own Weight. These two latter statements fall of their own weight. While many miles of road appear upon the map as post roads, there are only small sections that require improvement as a post road, and out of the mileage marked forest roads, much is already com pleted. Therefore, their scare lines as to the large cost of improving this h4V8 Zerolene, "a mott satisfactory motor oU" that it the testimony of the leading automobile distributor ot the CoMt.

The facts are that with the use of this bond money for hard surtsce, plus the money from the Bean bonds and Federal Government for work on post and forest roads, plus the sur plus in the Highway Fund for use on still other roads, we will be able with in a period of five years to fairly well complete in good shape all of the mileage designated in this bill with out any further borrowing of money. Facts on Columbia Highway. (1) They tell us that "it will cost $5,000,000 to complete the Columbia River Highway east and west of Portland." The facts are these: There are 148 miles of road on the Columbia River Highway in Co lumbia, .Clatsop and Hood River counties to be completed that the peo ple living in northwestern Oregon may have direct highway connection with Portland, the metropolis of the State, and thereby enter the (Willam ette Valley.

Adv. 5-21-4t Eastern Oregon with Portland and the Willamette Valley and converts the present Columbia Highway in Multnomah county, which is partly of scenic value, into a commercial road by extending It throutrh to the population of Eastern Oregon. lo hmsh the grade in those three counties will cost approximately $500,000; to lay tho hard surface will cost approximately $1,500,000. That equals one-third of the bond issue. ihese three counties, with Mult nomah county, pay 42 ncr cent of the auto license fees and receive back 33 1-3 per cent of the bond money. I The ibalance of tho money is then available for work in all tho other sections of the State. Bear in mind ihis. that no Dart of jthe State is to have its work taken up and completed before other parts of the State are considered, but every part of the State will be con sidered at' the same time and work in all sections of the State will be under progress at the same time. As far as it is within the power of the Highway Commission to spend these funds in that portion of the State from whence they will come, it will be done. Any other system would be unfair and prejudicial to all fu ture work. So, here again, I simply ask you to use your own pencil and make your own computations. That is suf ficient refutation of the statements made by those who' oppose these bonds. (To Be Continued.) AT THE HOTELS Savoy. J. A. Kirtland, La Grande; R. F. Ely and family, Nampa; W. E.
