One would think that modern intelligence had passed that stage, that thinking people had learned more about the theory and practice of nrcsenUday education than such action indicates. Of courac the real explanation may be that neither the Tennessee l"1.," governor nor the assembly possess either intelligence or the capacity for serious thought. Such a thing could happen.

According to latest predictions from state highway head quarters the Oregon commission at its meeting tomorrow Will lay out and at least partially adopt a plan for the send ing of six million dollars on the highways of the slat" this year and part of next. -The expenditures as now an ticipated will not provide for any major project in Kaslei 'i Oregon with the exception of filling in the gap on tin: John Day highway in linker and Malheur counties. That Eastern Oregon is not to lienefit directly by the expenditure of slate highways funds on these various projects is not unusual nor is it unfair l.'XLESS som-j of the project. contemplated are unnecessary at this tini.1 or lacking iu sound reason. That is a consideration th. people of Eastern Oregon should give all state highway programs; it is the only way the interests of all parts if the stale ciui best be served. , Whether or not the proposal to spend half a million in straightening the lower Columbia highway appioacliin-r Astoria will be approved at this session is doubtful. That project was not listed as a probability in Sunday's Ore-, goniaii. Certainly to drop its consideration, as The () rerver pointed out some weeks ago. would le a very wi., move at this time. The plans do include, however, an ex penditure of o7.",000 to straighten some cuivcs in the Pa cific highway between Portland and Salem due to the heavy trafric demands of this stretch. Again it would seem to The Observer that there me many projects in Oregon todav heeding P.I 'H-DINO vastly more than this stretch needs Straightening. With a Uynl speed limit of only ;',0 miles ah hour and with a smooth pavement that will stand several years of hard wear the elimination of mere curves seems lo be of small imijorlanoe com)arativcly. If Pacific hMi way traffic observes the state .-peod law it will not In- M'ii ously hampered by a sharp ttiin here and there along t!i0 way. Sooner or later the serious need and growing demand for pavement on the Old Oregon Trail Mweon I .a Ci and.' and Linker must be recognized by the slide commission'- and will offer a pioject deserving of the necessary Mate expenditure. Again we say there is no stretch of macadam road in Oregon eai lying more traffic and Ix-ing maintained at greater expense than this mileage. Pavement here is an inevitable state economy.
