In the morning Mr Kiddle, ac
companied by .1. It, lllaoknby, Mr.

va rd toward Nyssa, to Inspect thn
work done on (list highway and then
drove lo Vale to vlmv the crossing of
the Malheur river there and tho ap
proach or the John Day Highway.
Prior to making this trip Mr. Kid
die met ou Monday evening with n
number of good roads eiitlniMlssts nt
nn Informal gathering where the
general road situation In tho stain
was discussed At this gntherlng he
explained the situation In which the

available for nun all approplated,
and the system as outlined Incom

Not only will the road program
stop but unless the funds nre made
nviillnbln the State will not hn able
lo inntch the federal appropriations
ou the post roads, of which there nru
many mllos nut yet stnrieu in kusi-

Mr. K dd e had with him n graphic

mora than MIMIed for every ostl-
mate of Income from auto Ikons pro
pared by the commission had neeu
exceeded In fact, and that the money
available would Im greater than the
obarl Indicated
He urged the niNi who desire
good ronds to make tho provisions of
the matter dear to their friends so
that no misapprehension will operato
to keep oltljens from voting for the
