PAVED BOADS WHILE WE ARE ALIVE RalcraUes who bare driven over the new pavement on the Iicific Highway between Albany and Jefferson are loud- in tleir praise of it, and are glad that there is a possibility of six miles more being paved before snow flies, betweea Jefferson tr.d Salem. f ' , 'Hut even that will leave some eight miles of rough nnpaved L'gWay south of Salem,', which is not yet under contract for ravinz. " -' .. . :'i "'""' r ' It is devoutly to be hoped that the State Highway Com misiiion will see its way to let this contract in the near future, to the end that the work, may be started early next spring and completed before the end of 1921. , The Statesman trusts that rumors to the effecfrthat state highway, work is to be slowed up for a while until the bond some 'stress to the glories of market stiffens and labor gets: cheaper, will prove to be un- trntb loundeU.

The Statesman Is putting on some metropolitan airs; commenc ing this montlng with eight col umns to the page, and and add ing a little to the length of the columns.

It Is said that every room la the building will be occupied and that will mean a great deal te Willamette university and to Sa lem.

The drift of population to the cities is the outstanding feature of 19 years. . The shade of Jefferson. looking1 at'.lbe growing urban population , and the . growing un rest, will perhaps permit : Itself an ironical, though kindly smile. For it was Jefferson's belief that contentment was possible 'only if the inhabitants Jot a nation lived in the country and owned land. Jefferson hardly allowed in his thought for the "industrial revo lution,' as economists and .his torians call it. and he was not fond of cities.' But time may yet prove that; his view of this mat ier. as or, so many otners. was philosophically sound. Now.

Hut fth more money going into the building of new theaters than Into new dwellings, private en terprise has broken down In solv ing : the housinn problem.
