T 8 TTIE MORNING " OREGOSTAX, FRIDAY, JANUARY 1G. 1920 ROAD IP mm. IS VOTED BY HOUSE Bill Recognizing Route in Mal heur Passed. TWO-FOLD PLEA WINS fensvre Kecognlaes Jordan Valley Ontario Unit as State High way; Ballot Is 51 to 4. ; STATE CAPITOL, Salem. Or., Jan. 15. (Special.) What the state hlgh- way commission declined to do, the Z- '. nouse did today when it added a. route l.- from Ontario to Jordan Valley, in Mal- hfur county, to the state road map. ; It Is too late, probably, for Benton, Zi-' 'Washington, Yamhill, Columbia, Boug ie las and other counties to press their '. representatives to also add county roads to the state road .map, but with ... the precedent established by house bill No. 4, a drove of bills of this - character can be expected when the I- regular session opens in 1921. j In a way, the Malheur county road J bil! can be construed as a criticism of the policy of the highway commis N, v .sion, for the commission declined re-C'- peatedly to place this route on the - state map. just as it had turned down "Z. ' other applications. In the opinion of the commission the original road map ; of 1917 gave them all the state roads "' that they will be able to look after - for several years to come. - Two-Fold Plea Made In Hoase. - The commission has admitted that some of the roads which counties wished on the Slate map, are impor- t tant, but the commission hesitated ? about letting down the bars. ." The plea that enabled the bill to J; ; pass the house today, however, was two-fold. In the first place, assur- a nee has been given that this road. " once on the state map, will be paid U I for by money raised in Malheur " ' county. The second point is that owing to irrigation development and rr the opening of a rich territory in ; Jordan valley and vicinity, it is essen- - tial to provide a road, or this busi ly ness will be diverted to Idaho, instead ; Of remaining in Oregon. According to Representative Galla- , gher, sponsor of the measure, it is - estimated that $110,000 will build the road. The county has $30,000 of its road bonds set aside for that route - and in addition has $40,000 from its . general road fund to be applied, mak. ing $90,000 of the necessary $110,000. Elmore Makes Only Protest. The county, it was explained, hesi- . . tated to have the route surveyed as a H ' county road for fear that in the fu- - . ture, when a state road is declared in i- - that vicinity the state road may not J t follow the route the county selects n - and the county's money will be T2.;. thrown away. By declaring it a state road, it was argued, the , county s X money ea.n be used on a road wliicb will be permanent. - On rollcall, 51 votes were cast for the bill and four against it. Mr. El more made the only protest, stating "Z, '. that the highway commission has power to add this road or others to the state road map if the commission deems it advisable, and he thinks the v- - matter should rest with the commis. .. Eton. - - - HOUSE PASSES BOSD ISSUE Resolution to Cut Interest on In debtedness of Counties Adopted. STATE CAPITOL. Salem. Or.. Jan. 15. (Special.) Counties are author ized under a resolution introduced by Representative Burdick and adopted by the house today, to issue refund ing bonds to care for warrant indebt edness. Representative Burdick spoke on the floor in favor of the passage of this resolution, which, he said. would result in a great financial sav ing to many of the counties of the state. At present, he said, the coun ties were paying from 6 to 7 per cent Interest on outstanding warrants, while under the resolution they would be able to float bonds necessary to liquidate the indebtedness at a rate of interest not to exceed 5 per cent. Be fore issuing these bonds it first will be necessary for the counties inter ested to submit the proposition to i vote of the people. WASCO POST ItO VI PROPOSED Eastern, and. Central Oregon Inter- ested in Wright BILL J', STATE CAPITOL, Salem. Or, Jan. 15. (Special.) Designating as a post .highway certain roads beginning at : a point on the Columbia river high- . way and extending south through s- . Wasco county to the southern line of Sherman county, is proposed in I ' bill introduced in the house today by - Representative Wright. It is also . provided in the bill that the construe - tion of the highway so designated as a post road should proceed under the present laws providing for joint fed eral aid. Members of the eastern and central Oregon delegations particularly are interested in the success of this bill, which has been referred to the join ..roads and highways committee for consideration. TRUXEfG FARM PIAX HEARD Senate Adopts Pierce Resolution to Investigate Feasibility. " STATE CAPITOL. Salem. Or, Jaa. 13. (Special.) Appointment of a legislative committee to investigate "the feasibility of establishing a state training farm for juvenile delin quents, which shall be operated on the cottage plan, was approved by the senate today in the adoption of a resolution introduced by Senator Pierce. It is proposed to purchase a farm of about 200 acres for this work in L order to give youngsters an oppor tunity to direct their talenta toward agricultural and livestock work, as a means of bringing about perma- ' nent reformation. The resolution was transmitted today to the house for approval. SENATE DEBATES 2 BILLS ffnnHnu.d From First Payff.) from Medford to bring his remarks to a close. When the lights resumed some minutes later, Mr. Thomas re sumed his speech.. In the senate it was what is known as a "big day," and it might be set down as the day of the "big wind," for in the upper branch was- staged the spectacular ba'ttle of the session, the nsrnt over a Din creating a new slate fish and game commission. At . the end of three hours a test vote enowed 1' members favorable to the measure and 11 opposed. Speaker Jones got the house under way early and kept the members at the task of grinding out legislation, or throwing measures into the dis- card, and good progress was made. Before the close the house for the first time was in position to consider the accumulation of bills which have been passed by the senate and which are in the house for action. Road matters received attention from the house more than any other subject, with the exception of a plan for curbing amendments, to the con stitution. The proposed amendment, which la to increase the Indebtedness of the state from 2 to 4 per cent for roads, was quickly passed by the house and when the bill was pre sented authorizing the highway com mission to issue $10,000,000 of road bonds if the amendment carries at the May election, only three votes were cast against it. The three opponents were Hughes and Weeks, of Marlon county, and Schuebel of Clackamas county. Malhenr Iload Bill Carried. The first successful attempt to change the state road map of Oregon was made when the Malheur county road bill making a state road from Ontario to Jordan valley carried. A; measure asking for a similar privilege for Sherman county was promptly in troduced by Representative Wright. No more bills can be introduced in the house without unanimous consent, and before this move was adoptad 14 ew bills were popped.lnto the hopper. Bills on third reading were quickly disposed of in the house and shot over to the senate, where they must await the end of the debates before they are taken up. The game fight in the senate was so attractive that repeated calls of the house had to be made to maintain a quorum to transact busi ness, and, as one member exclaimed. "the members who are so anxious to adjourn Saturday noon are the ones who are listening in the senate. , Voting Measure Important. Of more than common importance is the measure in the house which provides that no amendment to the constitution can be adopted by the people unless it receives a majority of all the registered votes. If the measure runs the gauntlet of the legislature and is adopted by the peo ple it will make it almost impossible to add more amendments to the con stitution unless the free and sover eign voters of Oregon attend the polls in greater numbers than they have been doing in recent years. Politi cally considered, this is the most im portant measure which has yet made its appearance in the special session. Prelude to battle and indicating the controversy between the Oregon Agri cultural college and the University of Oregon are two measures which were offered late today. One is fostered by Senator Patterson, providing for six-tenths of 1 mill levy for the Oregon Agricultural college. . Repre sentative Kubii offered a like meas ure in the house calling for 1 mill to be split 50-50 Detween the two insti tutions. Active lobbies have been in Salem from both institutions all week on this question. m DEBT LIMIT EXTENSION UP Joint Resolution Asks Amendment on Road Construction. STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or., Jan. 15. (Special.) The house joint reso lution introduced by James Stewart of Wheeler county, providing for an amendment to the- constitution ex tending the - road construction in debtedness limitation from two to four per cent, based on the assessable property of the state, was adopted by the house today, with Representa- ves Hughes and Weeks of Marion county, dissenting. In case the reso lution is adopted by the senate, the amendment will be referred to the people at the special election to be held in conjunction with the primary election next May. It also is provided in the resolu tioh that three representatives and two senators shall be named by the presiding 'officers of the two houses to prepare and file with the secretary of state arguments in support of the proposed constitutional amendment and that the same shall be printed in the voters' pamphlet. The success of this amendment the hands of the voters will place into opeation the proposed $10,000,000 road bonding bill which is now before the legislature for consideration. BLLIi TO AID EX-SERVICE 1EX Proposed Act Would Permit Pree Recording of Discbarges. STATE CAPITOL. Salem. Or, Jan. 15. Special.) As a means of pro tecting ex-service men who might lose or displace their discharge papers. Senators Ritner and Shanks today introduced a bill pr6viding that these papers can be recorded by county clerks without cost. It was explained that in the future these discbarge records might prove of great value to many ex-service men, and the free recording of the papers as legal instruments is de signed as a permanent protection to those former soldiers who desire to take advantage of the bill. $1500 Rise for Engineer Urged. STATE CAPITOL, Salem, Or, Jan. 15. (Special.) Increasing the annual salary of the state engineer from $3000 to $4500 is urged in a bill in troduced in the house today by Repre sentative Gallagher.

Holt of Eugene, manager of the build ing department of the Oregon Grow ers' association, . and the several di rectors of the local plant here today, complete transfer was made of th Umpqua Valley Fruit union to the state association. The deed for th property in this city was valuedl at $26,300. Phone your want ads to The Orego nian. Main 7070. A 6095. At once 1 Relief with Tape's Cold . Compound' The first dose eases your cold!

Renewal of the ef forts of Senators LachmuDd and Thomas to launch a legislative fight against the Warren Construction com pany met with sudden and decisive termination in the senate today when the Lachmund bill to prohibit the payment of royalties on any patented pavement was Indefinitely postponed by a vote of 20 to 9.

Senators Hurley, Handley, Moser and Ira S. Smith ad vanced arguments against the bill. Opponents of the measure argued pointedly and forcefully to the effect that the open records of the state highway commission show that out of 47 contracts awarded to the Warren Construction company during the past year even with the royalties on the patent included the state had saved more than $250,000 to the peo pie of Oregon through accepting the low bids on the patented bithulithic pavement.
