As far as the proposed S2S.0O0.00o
federal loan was concerned, the com
mission belie red that Instead of In
curring that debt It would best base
future work on the regular federal
aid appropriation which In ten yeas
yould approximate S20.000.000. .
Chairman Scott calculated that un
der the proposed loan plan, Oregon
would in the years the loan ran. hare
i put out S7.400.ooo and would still
owe the government so -600 -000. Under
the federal M plan the state would
contribute t7.400.000 and at the end
of ten years would owe the govern
ment nothing.
