The forest highway program for
Oregon,' which will be in addition
to the $33,615,000 expenditure an
nounced Friday as - this state's
three-year postwar plan, -will
await appropriation by congress
before being developed, State
Highway Engineer R. H. Baldock
declared.
. The forest highway program is
selected jointly by the state high
way commission,- the public roads
administration and the forest ser
vice. The projects are contracted
by the public roads administra
tion. Reserve Set Up
Officials declared that thv dif
ference between the cost of the
three-year program and the funds
to be available represents a re
serve for contingencies, due to un
certain prices and other factors.
In listing its program the com
mission stressed that it had en
deavored to select projects to best
serve .the needs of each section
of the state. :.
In some cases this means a
preponderance of primary federal
aid projects," a commission state
ment read, "while in others sec
ondary and urban projects are
favored.
Completion Planned
One of the principal objectives
of the commission in the selection
of the projects was to provide
completion for sections of high
way now partially finished, to the
end that previous investment on
those sections can be put to im
mediate use, Baldock said.
Highway department records
show that expenditures aggregat
ing $3,500,000 were made on va
rious sections of highway before
the war, but completion of those
projects was deferred because of
war conditions. There also was an
investment of $1,500,000 on right
of way for future projects.
Requests Exceed Funds
"In making the project selec
tions," the commission said, "we
are not unmindful of the fact that
some disappointment will ensue.
The total requests for construc
tion of roads was many times the
funds available for expenditure
in the postwar era. Therefore, it
has been , impossible to grant all
requests." -
Commission members said they
hope that congress will continue
the present rate of authorization
of federal funds for the building
of needed highways beyond the
initial three-year period until all
needs have been satisfied.

Realtors Talk
Name's Value
At Luncheon
Members of the Salem Board of
Realtors at their noonday meet
ing Friday in Hotel Marion held
a roundtable discussion on - the
value of membership which in
turn gives: brokers and salesmen
of real . estate right to use the
copyrighted word realtor in ad
vertising.
President R. A. Forkner asked
members of the board "what do
realtors have over brokers and
salesman who ' are . not realtors?"
to open the discussion.
"I think it is just as important
to sell the word realtor to poten
tial members of the board as it
is to the general buying public,'
Wesley Stewart, of the Salem Ab
stract company said, "and on the
other hand X believe we should
advertise to the public the name
of the Salem Board of Realtors."
. "Realtors today, Leo N. Childs
said, "are not only building their
own businesses but are contribut
ing to the growth of other busi
ness. The banks profit bythe work
we do and the community unques
tionably finds our methods in
keeping with better citizenship and
a more attractive place in which
to live.".
Slogans on the word realtor
will eventually sell the public on
the idea of dealing only with
realtors," William E. Moses said.
Urlin Page, Union Abstract com
pany, urged speciality advertising.
"I believe the need for advertis
ing our profession is great enough
to warrant a- contest among the
public," W. L. (Habby) Haben
nicht said. - . - - v ' '
Following reading of several
letters on the subject from state
and national realtor headquarters
by William Bliven the board de
cided to make a further study with
the probability of organizing a
special advertising' campaign.

Five Cases on
OPA Violations
Filed in Court
Five cases, all involving alleged
violations of the office of price
administration regulations, were
filed in the state' supreme court
here Friday. The cases came here
on appeal from the Multnomah

actions.
Defendants include Emma An

These cases were said to have
