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. A delegation
from Grande Ronde declared 10 aliens
were being' employed : lri the road
quarry there. The matter will be in
vestigated. 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. The Fossil -
Davvllle project would cost about $1
725,000. The project Is being consid
ered on the state's five-year highway
budget, it was announcea.
