Benson Enthused "
Over Rord Program
"With all tlie vim of youth, brought
lack thru recreation of lour months
j la Southern California, Simon Ben
;m, chairman of the Oregon state
highway commission, ' has returned
i to Portland, says the Telegram, and
; will devote most of his time bence
' forth to the large affairs of t,he'com
! mission. The extensive road build
ing program authorized by the re
cent legislature insures much work
lor the commission to handle this
season, and Chairman ' Benson is
ready to tackle his part with his cus
tomary energy.
"California now has enough high
ly Improved roads to give the people
opportunity to appreciate what they
are worth and they have authorized
the expenditure of large additional
sums to pay for constructing many
miles . more of suitable highways,"
said Chairman Benson. ".There is a
bigger crop of tourists than ever be
fore in California and . prosperity is
general.' ' Abundant rains insure big
agricultural crops there. .
"By next fall there should be
satisfactory connection of the Pa
cific highway thru Southern Oregon
from Portland to the good, roads in
California. Then we can expect the
tide of tourist travel over, modern
highways to be turned toward Ore
gon after the winter rush reaches its
peak In California. Those people
will help pay for. our highways as
they have done in the state to tho
south of here. A tourist crop leaves
plenty of money without sending out
any products to offset expenditures
of travelers."
Chairman Benson Is hopeful -that
on the state highway coraajissloii.
He believes it would be unfortunate
for the state if Mr. Booth should not
yield to the popular will that jiejcon
tlnue to serve as a member. ? . '

fallen.
It does not take a very large plvco
of land to produce all the food for a
