TTTr TOT?XTVG OTOEGONIAT?,' WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1920 It OF BOND BILL VISITOR P. H. Carlyon Opposed to "Pay as You Go" Plan. $30,000,000 ISSUE IS UP Voters of Washington to Decide "Whether Roads Shall All Be Surfaced at Once. P. Ft. rlyon, author of the $30, 00,000 road bill which -the voters of Washington will adopt or reject No vember 2, was in Portland" yesterday. Mr. Carlyon is of the opini that the people of Oregon are as Interested in seeing Washington have a compre hensive highway system as they are in developing such a system in Ore gon, for the more .good roads that are offered to tourists the greater will be the attractions of the Pacific northwest to the motorist. "The 'pay-as-you-go' system," de clared Mr. Carlyon yesterday, "means detours, and everyone dislikes de tours. On the 'pay-as-you-go' plan, only a little dab of work can be done each year. Instead of waiting a gen eration for a completed system of highways, we want to issue enough bonds to have the roads' built now. Only Surfacing Provided. "If this $30,000,000 road bill Is ap proved by the Washington voters, the main highways of Washington cas be surfaced. This bond issue Is in tended to provide for surfacing only. The grades will be paid for from the state public highway fund- The bonds, like the road bonds in. Oregon, will be paid for by the license fees of the automobile owners. This year Wash ington has received from these licenses $2,700,000. "When the bill was presented It was estimated that the $30,000,000 would complete all of the highways at the prices then prevailing. Since then there has been an advance in the prices of labor and material and it may be necessary to use a little fed eral aid to complete the job. 1516 Milca Involved. "The bill is intended to surface 151C miles of roads. Of this mileage there is now paved or under contract 264 miles. If the bill passes, the Pa cific highway will be completed in 1921. with the exception of a few spots which may be too soft to pave. 7'here are 100 miles of the Pacific highway, north and south, yet to 'be paved. Oregon is especially inter ested In the completion of this road, for it connects with the Pacific high way in Oregon, which In turn, con nects with the Pacific highway in California. There is a considerable territory in Washington, south of Se attle, which is tributary to Portland over the Pacific highway. "Under the provisions of the bill, which is known in Washington as reierendum bill No. 1, a paved high way will run to every corner of the late and there will be highways east and west across the center. It is planned to start work paving several of these highways at the same time, thus road work will be in progress in the Spokane, Walla Walla, Yakima and Chelan sections simultaneously. Some day the highway on the Wash ington side of the Columbia also will be pushed to completion, and it will AUTHOR HIGHWAY day. be as scenic as the famous Columbia highway, but that ' will be an ex pensive enterprise, owing to the rock formation which must be dealt with. Detonra Are Disliked. "What I am anxious to see, how ever, is a system of paved state high ways which will develop Washington. By following the "pay as you go principle, it will take years for an appreciable showing to be made, but under the bonding system the money will be available at once for the whole undertaking. The bonds can not be sold to net the buyer more than 5 per cent. The state can buy up quantities of these bonds and take advantage of the interest. "13veryone Is complaining about the detours, particularly on the Pacific hiRhway. Well, the only way to get rid of detours is to pave the high way, and the way to pave the high way is to provide finances through the $30,000,000 bond issue." ' GOUT GLANDS BENEFIGIflL COVERXOR'S SECRETARY VIS ITS CALIFORNIA PRISON. Dow E. Fpjohn Tells of Man of 75 Who, Following: Operatoln, Be comes More Active. FALEM, Or., Sept. 7. (Special.) Tha"t the so-called goat gland opera tions which are being performed on prisoners in San Quentin penitentiary, in California, are a success and that the beneficial effects have not been j exaggerated in newspaper reports was the information brought here today by Don E. Upjohn, private secretary to Governor Olcott. who passed the last two weeks in California inspect ing the various state institutions and attending the annual convention of the National Traffic association in Sun l"Tancisco. "I had a lengthy conversation with the physician in charge of performing these operations," said Mr. Upjohn, "and later talked with a 75-year-old Inmate of the prison who had under gone the unique operation. Before the operation this convict was hardly able to get about the grounds, while at the present time he is full of 'pep' and has all -the physical appearance of a youth. The first operation per formed on this prisoner failed to re sult satisfactorily to the physician, and he later was subjected to a sec ond operation. "I received my information first hand, from men who had undergone the strange operation, and they told me that the effects of the gland ad ministering had not only improved their physical being, but had greatly stimulated their mental faculties. The prison doctors also are highly elated over the success of the operations and declare they will continue as the oc casion demands." Mr. Upjohn says a herd of goats are row on the prison farm at San Quen tin. and these supply glands for the open nuns. GRAND OPERA IS CHANGED 4Tosca" to Be Given on Openij Night, Sept. 30, at Heilig.

Opera performances, correct and authoritative in every detail, perform ances that must be of the same high standard as they are at the Metro politan opera house, are some of the things that Antonio Scotti, impres airo, insists upon. Mr. Scotti be lieves that communities that see opera only occasionally- are entitled to see the very finest his company is capable of giving, which means that it is as fine as it is possible to give. With artist, chorus, scenery and even the orchestra from the Metropolitan opera house. Mr. Scotti has had the world's greatest material with which to work. BRIDGE OWNER IS SUED OFFER- OF $250 FOR FOUR ACRES IS REFUSED. Autoists Pay $1 Toll; State High way Commission Wants Land for Road. SALEM, Or., Sept. 7. (Special.) When Malcolm Moody today refused to accept $250 as full payment by the state for approximately four acres of land deeded for a road to connect up the Columbia river highway with the new bridge over the Deschutes river, J. M. Devers, on behalf of the state highway commission, filled a suit in the Wasco county circuit court asking that the land in- question be condemned. The state highway commission some time ago designated the land involved in the suit as public property, and later reauested the county court of Wasco county to obtain the rights of way necessary to connect up the present highway with the Deschutes bridge. This the court refused to ao. Mr. Devers then submitted to Mr. Moody a proposal to buy the land at stipulated price of $250, but this offer he refused. At the present time travelers over the highway In eastern Oregon are compelled to pass over a private bridge owned by Mr. Moody, for which it is said automobiles are assessed $1 each. When the new highway of less than a mile In length is constructed the toll bridge will be eliminated as a necessary means for travel. Kecords in the office of the state highway commission show that as many as 50 automobiles have passed over the Moody bridge in a single Labor Scarce at Salem. SALEM, Or.. Sept. 7. (Special.)

Yesterday a call came in for 30 berry pickers, but he was unable to supply more than half that number. Calls for labor in other lines also ex ceed the number of. men listed for service. Extra!

It simply has done wonders for me, and I want everybody to know about this medicine," said Francis Weirath. foreman of a larg"e department of the Goodrich Rubber Company plant at Akron. Ohio. Mr. Weirath resides at 210 West State street, that city. "I was in an awfully bad state of health for fourteen years, and dur ins the past ten years I got to the point where life was a burden. I suffered terriblyxwith indigestion and dyspepsia. I never had any appetite and all I could eat for breakfast was a soft-boiled egg and a little milk I would get so nervous and miserable that many a night I never slept a wink, and when nothing would bring me any relief I had just about come to the conclusion my case was hope less. . "I haven't taken but three bottles of Tanlac, but I feci better than I have felt for twelve years. I've gained fourteen pounds in weight and am getting Heavier ana stronger every day. I never have indigestion any more, my ap-petite is splendid and I eat just anything and everything I want. I sleep sound every night, and all that tired, worn-out feeling is gone. In fact, I am a well man in every way. "The men at the plant all tell me I am looking fine these days and get ting fat. They all want to know what I am doing to myself, and it's always a pleasure for me to tell them about Tanlac." Tanlac is sold in Portland by the Owl Drug Co. Adv. Whole Family Sick "AH of my six brothers and sister, as well as myself, have suffered since childhood from stomach and liver trouble and bloating.

I have no trouble from any thing I eat."
