Varsity Head Says People lid Not
Include Medical School.
CNIVERFITT OP OREGON". Eugene.
peD x7. (Special.) To extract money
from the millaga tax. which provides
for the maintenance of the University
of Oregon buildings and campus in
l Kugene, to contribute to the fund of
y the Oregon Medical School, is not in
accordance with the understanding of
the people while the millage bill was
passed. 16 months ago, declares P. L.
Campbell, president of the University
of Oivoit" who spoke on the subject
today.
"The Medical School appropriation
bill, providing 8S0.000 for maintenance
for two year and for $100,000 for a
pew building, is now before the joint
ways and means committee and we
hope it will come up for passage within
two or three days." said Mr. Campbell.
The $100,000 requested in the appro
priation would be used to erect a new
building on the 10-acre campus over
looking Portland from the west. This
site was recently donated to the uni
versity by the C.-Vr.Jl. & X. Railroad.
The proposed building would tbe the
first of a group, which will include
lecture buildings and hospital.
. Among other reasons necessitating
construction of a new building is the
Increased enrollment this year, oc
casioned by the combination of the
medical school of Willamette Univer
sity with that of the University of
Oregon. This makes the University
Medical School now the only one in
the North west.
The Medical School of the University
of Oregon la given a Class A ranking
by the American Medical Association.
EW COIXTV SYSTEM TASSED
.House Adopts Expenditure Method
Which Excludes Multnomah.
STATE CAFITOL. Salem. Or.. Feb 17.
(Special.) A new system of county
administration is provided in Repre
sentative W. O. Smith's bill, passed
by the House this afternoon.
The purpose of the bill is to intro
duce system and safeguards in the ex
penditure of county money and the
business affiirs of counties and school
districts. It does not propose to re
duce tho powers or authority of any
officer, but simply to prov4de safer and
more systematic methods. It provides
a more complete system of budgets
and estimates of expenses and requires
closer conformity of expenses to ap
propriations, but provides definite and
full provisions for emergencies.
In selling county property notice,
hearing, publication." appraisal and
. public sale are required and a vote of
the people is required for sales of un
usual importance. It proarides a com
plete system for procuring structures,
materials and supplies by proposat
bids and contract under bond. Mis
cellaneous provisions are incorporated
to prevent fraud.
The act does not apply to Multnomah
County..". J

HALF-MILL TAX AIM
New Road Measure Proposed
on Engmeer's Resignation.
MR. VAWTER LEADS FIGHT
Hope or Success, However, 2ot Par
ticularly Bright, as Opposition to
Programme Not Confined to
- Mr. Bowlby's Opponents.
STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Feb.
17. (Special.) Now that Major Bowl
by, State Highway Engineer, has been
forced out of his job, good roads en
thusiasts in Doth the House and the
Senate have taken new hope.
One more effort will be made to In
crease the quarter-mill state-wide road
lew to half a mill. '
Representative Vawter, chairman oi
the House committee on roads and
highwavs, has prepared a bill that he
will ask permission to introduce to
morrow morning. The measure simply
raises the quarter-mill levy to half a
mill and provides for the appointment
of an advisory board to the State
Highway Commission. This advisory
board is to consist of three members,
one from each of the Congressional
districts of the state, to be appointed
by the Governor. They are to have
no vote and are to act only in an ad
visory capacity and when requested
by the commission.
It is understood that much of the
road legislation has beeen blocked in
the House on account of hostility to
Major Bowlby, who has been criticised
for his work in Jackson County Colum
bia County and other parts of the
state where he has had charge of road
construction.
The case of the good roads people is
by no means a hopeful one, however, as
opposition to the road programme
arises from other sources than the op
ponents of Major Bowlby. The ultra
economical members have been taking
occasion at every turn to vote against
road appropriations and they seem in
no way to favor Representative Vaw
ter'8 programme.

MR. OLCOTT FOR RETENTION
State Highway Engineer, in Port
land, Hears of Action and Tele
phones Clerk to Say He Will
Turn Over Office Any Time.
SALEM, Or., Feb. 17. (Special.)
The State Highway Commission this
morning requested the resignation of
H. L. Bowlby. State Highway engineer.
Tho reasons assigned for asking the
resignation are given in the following
letter from the' Governor to Major
Bowlby:
"Concurrent with the action of the
State Highway Commission at a meet
ing held this morning, as its chairman
I am requesting your resignation as
Highway Engineer of the State of Ore
gon. "While I and 'otner members of the
Commission appreciate your . faithful
ness to the interests of the state and
the constructive work of your office,
yet the majority of the board deems
this action necessary at this time to
insure a more generous treatment of
road legislation by the Legislature
than seems possible to procure if you
continue in office."
The action of the Commission, how
ever, was not unanimous. Secretary
of State Olcott favored the retention
of Major Bowlby, but wheji interviewed
he said that he had no statement to
make other than that he voted for his
retention.
Major Bowlby was in Portland today
attending the opening of bids for some
concrete bridges in Multnomah County.
His clerk acknowledged receipt of the
Governor's letter requesting his resig
nation, and announced that Major
Bowlby instructed her by telephone to
say to the Governor that he would be
ready to turn the office over to his
successor at the convenience . of the
State Highway Commission.
Commenting op the action of the
Commission, Governor Withycombe
said:
"The action of the Commission was
taken in the interests of good roads
legislation. While I am a personal
friend of Mr. Bowlby, 1 felt that under
present conditions he was blocking the
enactment of good roads legislation
which this state so much needs. That
nothing might be placed in the way of
the enactment of needed road laws by
the Legislatrue, the majority of the
board decided to ask for Mr. Bowlby's
resignation."
"Major Bowlby is a competent en
gineer," said Governor Withycombe.
;He has done valuable work, but has
been misunderstood. He has become
the storm center of road legislation
and it became evident if he wanted
anything in. that line from this Leg
islature he would have to go. Per
sonally, I have the highest opinion of
Major Bowlby."
Charges of incompetency were tiled
with the commission against the high
way engineer by the Taxpayers' League
of Columbia County last September, but
no action was taken. It was alleged
that he had under estimated the cost
of work on the Columbia Highway, and
as a result the county was threatened
with serious financial trouble.
The charges were renewed before a
. j ihA ir.inf wnvH and means
III Ll 1 1 S " " J " -
committee last Monday night, and Ma
jor Bowlby, who attended the hearing,
declared that he had not been given a
fair opportunity to present his side of
the case and declined to answer certain
questions. He requested that he be
given a chance to answer them at a
hearing the next day, when he could
employ counsel and consult the records
of his office. This was denied, although
he was informed tnat no couiu.
ift writing. . .
It was also charged that the route
of the highway had been changed after
the contract for building it had been
let, and the contractor and county suf
fered loss as a result

"I have informed tho State Highway
Commission that I am ready to tur n
over the -office of the State Highway
Engineer as soon as my successor Is
ant to take charge of It" "aid Major
Bowlb? last night, referring to the
demand from the Commision yesterday
that he resign.
"That constitutes my resignation
and there remains nothing to be done
but for my successor, whoever he may
be. to come and take charge. The af
fairs of the office are in such condition
that he can take charge at any time
without any trouble."
Major Bowlby came to Portland yes
terday from Salem and will be with the
County Commissioners this morning at
the opering of bids on some bridge
construction on the Columbia . High-
W"l'do not know just what my future
nlans will be as yet," he Bald. In the
first pTace, I think I shall take about
two months' vacation as soon as my
successor is appointed and jaKes

to say one way or anotherregardmg
the action of the Commission.
-"I have been always opposed ' said
Samuel Hill, yesterday, in
Major Bowlby's removal from the oi
flce of Highway Engineer, "to mixing
r,niiHr with road work, and have
s7r ! roads built successfully
where politics controlled.
"l regret naturally the action of the
State Highway Commlsison in asking
for Major Bowlby's resignation. I am
much pleased that they should recog
nize his ability, and assigned the true
reason for the call as politics, which
of course it Is pure and s mple.
"A little reflection will show the
State of Oregon the impossibility of
organizing any new force which will
be able to finish the work now in.
