T. Hunt told-members of the Salem Rotary, club In an address at the noon luncheon Wednesday. "Almost every town now connected with a paved highway, and the last-of the towns Including Scotta Mills and Mon itor, will he connected under the new five-year building program," he declared. -:-.. ;The five-year program Initiated in 1920. he explained, called for the construction of but 100 miles of paved road In the county, but through economies, principally through the operation of the coun ty's own paving plant. 140 infttead of 100 miles has been built. Dur ing the next five yeans 120 miles of pavement will be laid. The cost of this , work Is to be divided be t ween- the county. thej state, through an appropriation of $65, 000 annually, the proceeds! from a d irect ta levy, end the propor tion of funds received by the coun ty from the state auto license tax. "I don't believe that there Is a county in the state, for that mat ter on the coast, that has better roads thaVwe have,". Judge .Hunt declared; "I ant proud tot, the roads in Marion county, i , "The city of Salem may well af ford to lie very liberal in paving." he continued. : "In many jvays it work3 .to its direct advantage for it. helpolthe large towns j to the detriment of. the small ones; and I believe that Salem has been lib eral in the matter of financing the building of roads." " Tom ;Kay. state treasurer -and a member (of the' club, spoke briefly after Judge Hunt, adding an ex planation of the part that Mult nomah county plays in Oregon road construction- "Multnomah county pays ap proximately one-third, of the amount . that goes into road con struction that the state pays for. and in return receives only a small fhnre of this amount," bet declar ed. When the .3tate raised! 40 mil lion dollars, he said, Multnomah county received nothing, and from the one-mill tux levy for th marked road which rained p proximately Sl.060,000. Multno mah county received only $100. ooo". i f S HeahkyJIappy Kiddies! kMp tbrarthat way I Hav tbair school or play shots equipped with L Soles acrid Heels " Yoor neighborhood r- pairman will attach thm.

'I met the members of the erew when In Pan Diego in July, con ferred with Commarder Rodgers. informed him that the question of place and time of flight was ab solutely in his hands, that we would not interfere with his dl-l cretion. and he expressed the greatest confidence In his ability to reach Hawaii without mlhap "No man was forced to do any thing in this flight or any other that In his judgment was unwise. "I have directed the chief of the bnrau of navigation to select five of the most competent and learned officers in the navy to conduct a full investigation of the los of I the Shenandoah and to spare no I pains and effort to ascertain the actual farts regarding the Shenan doah disaster.

WOVLD REVISE CHARTER SEATTLE, Sept. 9 Following the refusal of the city council to initiate a ' movement toward re vision of the Seattle city charter, a citizens group known as the freeholders charter revision com mittee organized here today. PORTLAND. Sent. 9 BUI Tate. negro heavyweight, arrived in Portland from Chicago today George Moore, local portsman. will handle Tate and says that the obiect la bringing him to the Pa cific coast is to force Georse God frey, another negro heavyweight into another match. Tate will likely appear before goin- to California where he hopes to get a match with God frey. aster. Admiral Mofrett. who spent most of the afternoon in confer ence with Mr. Wilbur, declared Commander Rodgers and all mem bers of his crew were anxious to make the flight to Hawaii and that no hesitancy was evinced by anv of them. Failure of the flight and appar ent loss of the men, the admiral said have served to submerge the fact that the PN-9 No. 1 If it fell nesr Hawaii as supposed, estab lished a record for continuous flight over water.- The text of Secretary Wilburs statement follows: Captain u. W. Steele, com mandant of the naval a!r station. Lakehurst, N. J.. and Rear Ad miral W. A. Moffett. ihief of the bureau of aeronautic, reported to me today conhering the acci dents to the Shenandoah and the PN-9 No. 1. It seems wise with out waiting for the termination of the formal inquiry to correct cer tain misleading statements that are being published. "The orders Issued for the She nandoah's flight were Issued by the departmental officers as are all orders for ships movements, as provided by law and by regulation There was nothing political whatever in connection with the flight of the Shenandoah. The flight was determined Up- on Inst J.ine. and had no relation to the polar flight or the Hawai ian flight "The details of the flight were; arranged during my absence on the Pacific coast by Admiral Mof-i fett.t chief of the bureau of aero-i Premier Opening of Northwest.
