BIG REFUND BOND ISSUE NECESSARY (Continued from Pago One) all long term or part long term and part short term bonds had not yet been decided. Chairman Leslie Scott of the com mission, basing his views upon esti mates provided through cooperation of the department of state, declared the commission would be short about $3,000,000 on October 1 of expected revenue at the time when the million dollar bond Issue authorized last spring will fall due. This deficit would take into consideration a possible In stallment buying of automobile li censes now being considered by the ! governor and secretary of state. The commission to date would re ceive about 91,500,000 from sale of ltcenso plates, which is about $1,760, 000 under the anticipated amount, Scott said. Also at present, due to the combination of emergency relief work and decrease in sale of licenses, the commission has expended $250,000 in excess of revenues. Should a quarterly payment basis not be decided upon it would only add about $500,000 to the revenues by October 1. it was estimated. But the commission Is considering the amount of funds required planned on a possible Installment system being invoked. The meeting was called here today primarily for consideration of log hauling restrictions and regulations which matter was being discussed preliminary to the conference later in the day with the Oregon Mill and Truck Owners' association. State En gineer R. H. Baldock recommended general .reductions In weight and speed on alt types' of trucks where roods would not carry the traffic, and further investigation of the question before-final rules are adopted. Only citizens of the United States and residents of Oregon, outside of keymen, may be employed by con tractors on highway work, the com mission declared today, when com plaint was made that some foreigners were being employed.

Baldock reported- a re cent survey revealed that out of 879 laborers, only 12 were found to be non-residents of Oregon. ;' The John Day highway association, through a delegation, requested the wiaening oi tne jroetui-mtyvuie sec tion of that road. The engineers re ported $4,700,000 had been qpent-on the John Day highway and tor widen ing and resurfacing It would cost an additional $3,865,000.
