It's a question that doesn't seriously concern the average American citizen who counts himself fortunate jlf he has any seat at a dinner table,' but we assume that-a vice president's sister, chosen for his official hostess by our .vice presidential widower,' sliould have nil the honors of a wife. It's all a matter of male choice and news of Mrs. Gann indicates that Mr. Curtis could hardly choose it wife !Nho would lo more charming and gracious. ECONOMY IN HIGHWAY. BONDS t No action has yet lieen taken by the state highway qom, . mission on the proposal made during the recent legislative session that small bjoes of new bonds be issued for sitew years to permit more rapid completion of the present high way system. Oregon roads pay for themselves. They pro mote travel and therefore increase receipts for their con struction, and maintenance. They constitute the primary reason, why the state enjoys a tourist business worth, many millions each year. Any means by which needed improve ment and new construction can be accomplished without an added tax burden should receive tho careful attention of the commission. To issue not to exceed a million dollars worth of bonds thiB year, for example, would provide funds, for work that is seriously needed. It would not, however, be an, additional tax burden since motorists are paying the li cense1 fee and gas tax through which both bonds and in terest are being paid. Principal and interest payments sched ules are at their peak; however, at the present time and some I pressing highway work is likely to 'suffer in consequence.; .With a bond issue of only n million each year for the next three or. four years, that handicap would be overcome. It would allow the straightening and widening of the La Grande-! Kamelft section of the Old Oregon Trail one of the outstand ing, needs at the present time and would permit improve ment work of like character in other sections of the state. Even a million in bond money for one or two years would provide important relief. Traffic is op the increase. Mod am motor cars demand wider, better main arteries. Itoad betterment is an investment in state progress that should j not be delayed. Revenue from additional bonds now would; lie a state economy in the long run. ' !
