The terse answer Is that the court is decidedly unfavorable to any such cut. The reasons are (1) Public demand for roads, (?) the fact that a definite county program has been determined upon which cannot be curtailed in fairness to aH the county, (S) the long coveted North Santiam project which the court feels It must aid to tne extend of 100,- 000 a year unless government aid be lost. (4) the Increasing need for employment for winter relief, and (5) the outstanding market road bonds to the extent of 1170.000 which must be met in the next two years. There, as fax as the county court is concerned, is the case against the reduction in road costs in Marion county. But the court has an Idea a very definite one of the way to kill geese and yet keep a steady supply of golden eggs available for road-bunding enthusiasts.

" f . 'I The court! also is keenly con scious of the need of road work as a means of providing unem ployment relief. T Daily the 1 de mand for work for men with families who are in need come to the court. To suspend the road building program would be! to turn a deaf ear to the greatest source of relief the county can provide. Such is Marlon county's evylng body's view on tax tax re- ductlon. Salary cut Should ' Benin at the ton The matter of salary cuts waa raised but members of the court were impatient with the sugges tion. "The place to start these cuts is at the top. The big fel lows in the statehouse these are the men with the high salar ies and they should be reduced,' the court declared. The' salary of the state budget officer? at SfiOOO was suggested and the court Indicated It was ludicrous o suggest docking a stenograph er S10 a month to a starvation wage when such salaries were being paid. Circuit court salaries were also pointed out as exces sive under existing conditions. As vfor minor expenses there are few which the court tniaxs msr fall under the knife. One Is the county health program, an $000 county budget Item whicn annually Is the cause of more attack than a J 507,000 Item for reads.

(ICE STRIDES Flying Boat Carrying 40 to Take air Soon; Ocean Travel due Soon By W. W. CHAPLIN , NEW TORBI. July 11. (AP) Ia about three weeks a new It passenger flying boat will take the air in Connecticut and so another great stride will be taken toward the nearing day of regular trans- Atlantie air travel. For this plane is to go Into the Caribbean service of Pan-American Airwars. which is the testinsr ground tor commercial trane-At-lantie flights. The new plane, the largest com mercial plane ever, built, will fly between Miami and Baranqnllla. Colombia, a distance of ISSt miles, only fit of which la over land. The hop from Jamaica to Baranqnllla Is approximately the same distance as from the Atlan tic seaboard to Bermuda, the con ditions are about the same, and almost all the way the pilot ft out of sight of land. Pan-American Airways Is very definitely Interested In participate Ing in an Atlantic line and It looks, on its Caribbean department as a practice ground on which to learn . the lessons necessary to success ful operation of a cross-ocean service. The new giant flying boat, and a sister ship already begun, are constructed with an eye directly on Atlantic flying. They are built with a range of miles, which the It is ADVA HUM can -easily he extended by sacri ficing a smau portion or the pas senger apace. They are equipped as luxurious ly as any ocean liner. When an Atlantis line la Inaug urated It probably will be oper ated Jointly by American, English and rrencA companies. Pan-American Airways will cer tainly operate' the leg from the eastern seaboard to Bermuda. Im perial Airwars of Great Britain has flying monopolies at Bermuda and Aero Postals of France at the Axores, hat because of its large over-water equipment Pan-Ameri can will probably also operate from Bermuda to the Asores. From the latter point Imperial Airways probab!y will run a lino to London and Aero Festal a. an other te France. SIEE'S FOI SCHEDULED TODAY EUGENE. Ore..
