Indian Student at
Open Forum Meet
Telling a story of stoning and
persecution which reminded h i s
hearer* of the stories of New Test
ament days, Bhagwant B. Bhag-
wat. a Hindu-Christian student now
at Pacific college, Newberg, ap
peared before the open forum at
the Congregational church last
night, thrilling the audience with
the intimate details of his conver
sion to Christianity and his efforts
t«> obtain an education in this coun-
try
“Eighty-two per cent of the peo
ple of India never know what a full
meal is, from birta to death,” said
Mr. Bhagwat, in commenting on
“What the Americans call depres
sion.” “In India we have depres-
sion all the time.”
Mr. Bhagwat was born an orth
odox Hindu in the merchant caste
in Deccan, in the province of Bom
bay, and as an 11-year-old boy
read a New Testament dropped by
another native Christian. He be
came interested and through the
instrumentality of a Congregational
minister, turned to the Christian
religion. He came to America to
study, anil expects to return to
India and his native province, as a
“home missionary” to his own
people.

Reckless Driving

Norman Goodin of Newberg route
one was fined $15 in justice court
Wednesday by Justice IL A. Kur-
atli on a reckless driving charge.
A. M. Peterson Saturday pleaded
not guilty to reckless driving. He
was charged with driving his car
too fast along the highway where
men were working. W. J. Ball was
bound over to the grand jury on a
non-support charge.
City Sewage Work
Contemplated Soon
Finances of the state highway
com mission are such that no new
projects can be added and give lit-
tie hope of early work on the Wil
son river road, the Wolf creek or
Ridge route short cut routes to the
beach, th«* road across Washington
county to connect with the short
cut roads or th«* widening of the
present highway from Beaverton
to Forest Grove. This was the frank
statement made before members of
the Hillsboro Chamber of Com
merce Monday by Leslie Scott, new
chairman of the state highway corn
mission. Thomas il. Tongue Jr. wa*
chairman.
Demands T remendou«
Ten to twenty million dollar*
of additional bonds would be nec-
es-ary to build the many project*
that have been presented to the
commission, according to Chairman
Scott, who pointed to the fact that
$29,000,000 of state highway bond*
and $23,000,000 o f county road
bonds were backed*by real proper
ty in the state. He said it wa* not
his intenti«>n or that of the commis
sion to increase the bond load of
the state. The commission, he said,
is unanimous in the realisation that
one of two things must be done to
keep within the finances available
stop the unemployment relief
work or curtail new construction.
If the unemployment relief work
is continued the state will not be
ible to match the $1,600,000 of
federal aid money for roads i n
which the federal government pay*
60 per cent.
M r. Scott pointed to the possibility
of diminishing returns in gasoline
tax receipts and license fees be
cause of economic conditions. Com
mission overhead, he said, will go
close to $10,000,000 and the old
commission estimated that «2,400.-
000 could be spent on new con-
st met ion including the federal aid
roads. Unemployment relief will
amount to $1,250,000. The commis
sion is faced with a deficit of $300,-
000 by April 1, according to the
speaker, who cited the failure to
receive bids on $1,000,000 of six
per cent bonds.
Save $300,000
Re-organising of the department,
reduction of salaries and elimina-
Jon of some employes will result
in a saving of $300,000 on a pay
roll of $1,500,000 for 1200 regular
employes, declared Mr. Scott, who
paid tribute to the ability of Roy
Klein, who retired as chief engin
eer to be replaced by his assistant
R. H Baldock. Klein, he said, knew
how to build up during good times,
but it takes a different type to
ileal with shrinking conditions. Plan*
call for the elimination of every
supernumerary in the department.
Mr. Scott cited the many de
mands for road work in every sec
tion of the state and then coming
close to home told of the demand
for a wider road from Forest Grove
to Beaverton, the short cut roads,
the cross countv highway and the
Baseline project. To get maximum
results it is necessary to use state
money in co-operation with the
federal funds appropriated. There
is not enough money available to
do all the things asked, although
the speaker said he would like to
have an Aladdin lamp so as to
make ail these projects possible.
He admitted that the Tualatin
valley highway is too narrow, that
the shoulders are soft and the pave
ment bad, but also pointed out that
the estimated cost is $150,000 and
that while it was on the program
for work eventual!' it would not
be done this year. Short cut route*
to the sea cannot possibly be in
cluded in this year’s program, al
though he said the pressure is tre
mendous in Portland and the
neighboring districts. People else-
where, he said, fail to see that
Portland has a complaint. He stat-
ed that after the engineer* have
completed their surveys across the
county, th«1 Wolf creek and the
