WEDNESDAY, JULY 21. ' 1ZZ0. THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, OREGON LOOP ROAD ROUTE CAUSES HOT TILT " After an extended .debate on the proper 'location of the Mount Hood loop highway between Gresham and ; Brihtwood, the commlasiofk took under advisement Tuesday the ques- j tlen of ordering a detailed survey of what la known as the north of Sandy route, advocated; by Portland , officials and others. The argument In behalf of this route was sustained principally by Ous Moser, City Attorney La Roche. City Engineer Laursaard and City Commissioner Mann. Opposed to them were the pro ponents of the south of ; Sandy route, which runs from Greshanv' to Bright wood by way of Kelso and Sandy. So far as applause was concerned the speak ers for the southern route had much the best of It. as the court room was filled with a large delegation of residents of Sandy and other sections of Clackamas county. Ous Moser even intimated that the meeting may , have been . packed. JUDGE BIMICK SPEAKS Commissioner Mann Introduced a Joint report of a survey made by City En gineer Laursraard. , Engineer Kandlett of the water bureau and former City En gineer Morris, in which it was claimed that the distance by the southern route was 32.48 miles, as compared with 22.95 north of the Sandy river. " ' Whatever the difference m cost of construction there might be in favor, of the southern route was. it was claimed, more than counterbalance; by the extra cost of right of way and difficulties of drainage. While It was admitted that the route surveyed by the state highway depart ment on the south side was the best one that could be found on that side, it Was contended that In an improvement in volving: the expenditure of $1,000,000 a complete survey should also be made of the northern route before a decision was made. It was held that from trunk road standpoint the north side was the logical one. In behalf of the soutfiside location, Jnr Dtmick of Ore r on City SDoke from the viewpoint of county, and city devel opment.; saying that the southern route passed through the greatest area of agri cultural ..country. .. COKTKOTERSTtrOBE8TAI.I,EI - Another survey, he said, ; would not demonstrate the superiority of the northern location, but would simply de lay the improvement of the road. As a booster for more farm production. Cir cuit Judge Stapleton came to the ranks . of the Clackamas county people In be half of the southern route, as did Sena tor George W. Josephs. The highway department Is Just com . plettng a survey of the northern route. which indicates that the route Is slightly shorter than the northern route and can be constructed for approximately $200. 000 lesaf Until the details are- fully worked out, however, the commission will not take further action relative to the location. . .

It was contended that roads of primary importance, such as the John Day i highway, would be de prived of the necessary support. There were several bids on the pro ject, including one from the Lane county court. After they were opened the mat ter was disposed of by an agreement that the Leedy protest would be with drawn and the lettis of the contract be deferred until Its legality could be passed on by Attorney General Brown.
