'Roosevelt' is - Deleted in
Senate - Vote; Hall - is
Chief Opponent
Y The senate yesterday approved
House. Bill 262 which changes
the name of the Roosevelt Mill-
tary Coast highway to the Oregon
"coast highway.
y . The "senate committee on roads
' and highways .reported the house
' Wit" out ' with an amendment
changing the' name to the Roose-
' vlt 0gon Coast ' highway but
tbe senate defeated this change.
On the- final rote 21 ayes against
- i nine nays were- cast for the name
change. . j. ,
.The, fight to change the name
of, the highway was led by Sen-
- ator . FrancjscovJcn . or - .ciatsop
county. -.He. declared that - the
name - of" Oregon . Coast, highway
had been Indorsed. by the state
highway, commission, - virtually
all of the counties through which
it passes and a large majority of
; people living at tbe mouth of the
Columbia- river. . Franeiseovich
i aaid In changing the name of the
- highway, - the state of Oregon
'would receive the advertising to
which It la enUUed. "The. present
name of the highway means
nothing to the people In the
east., said Franciscovieh, "as
there are a dozen other highways
, bearing, tbe name Roosevelt.'

the name of the highway for the i
reason - that It was approved by
: the voters at an election held in
I this' state In 1919. "The people
: voted for the name 'Roosevelt
Military Coast highway' ". said
' Hall, "and the name 'Roosevelt'
; should not be eliminated by this
senate."
Hall also charged that in elim
inating the name 'Roosevelt' the
state of Oregon would lose much
favorable advertising gained
through the last 10 years.
. Senator Moser favored chang
ing the name to the Oregon
Coast highway, on the ground
that, such action would give ad
ditional advertising to the state,
and distinguish the. road from
other Roosevelt highways to dif-
