been modernizing and striiKlhtenini;
this highway and the new grade and
surface are now completed to a point
nenr Richardson about 12 miles from
the junction with the main Sluslaw
rosd at Hwisshoinc.
About a year nco the county's ft
nancial stringency mmle it impossible
for the county to continue the heavy
construction on this project. Last
ivintcr a camp for unemployed single
men was established near Richardson
with It. F. C. funds and considerable
clearing wns done, but the project
seemed to be checked.
Efforts were made to get this sec
tion of road placed on the state s
main highway system and eligible for
federal aid, but these requests were
refused, federal policy being to desig
nnto only inter-county roads for their
aid.
The first big chnnge came when the
legislature ptit the secondary high
ways under the direct administration
of the state- highway commission.
Then came a struggle to find funds
for these roads. The new regulations
from Washington make federal funds
available for the secondnry' roads for
the first time in the history of Ore
gon road building.
The appropriation of $53,425 is ex
pected to be sufficient to complete
at least three more miles of difficult
grude, and more money mny be made
uvallublo Inter in the year if the fed
eral government carries out the ex
pected policy of expanding the road
funds.

lam of (J rent Iintnin,
Before the meeting high British
quarters hnd said they definitely un
derstood President ltoosevelt had re
plied favorably to a plea to prevent
erratic dollar fluctuations. According
to the British, the- reply amounted to
substantial approval in principle if
not in full acceptance.
After the meeting it was under
stood from an autohirtative source
thnt a new goid bloc proposal, under
which America and Britain would
join in stopping currency speculation
and would aid in preventing violent
fluctuations of the dollar, had been
submitted to Mr. Roosevelt. Ills an
swer was expected tonight.
The original gold bloc proposal,
which was forwarded to the president
by Mr. Moley lust night, contained not
only a provision about speculation but
alho called for a declaration that the
signatories pledge themselves to ul
timate stabilization.
It was understood Mr. Roosevelt
was willing to accept the proposals
for slopping speculation, hut he ca
bled Mr. Moley thnt there must be no
specific mention of "stabilization
The president Is said to have stat
ed that the proposal must be confined
to a fight against speculation.
Mr. Roosevelt's reply was regarded
in high British quarters as favor
able. The bloc, however, would not
accept.

can quarters understood today thnt
the Federal Reserve Bank of New

program of steadying the dollar by
halting speculation by means of con

had discarded the plans for the Wald
port bridge and thaat new plans, us
ing steel and concrete, were already
completed and stnted furthermore
thnt all Coast higliway bridges wpuld
either be built of steel and concrete
or not at all
' Crow issues a call for lumbermen
to attend this meeting to cut the cost
of the mounting tax burden and to
"put a stop to the squandering of the
taxpayers' money'
"The state highway commission and
the bridge engineering department is
100 per cent for the utilization of
lumber in every piece of construction
possible," Carl G. Washburne, mem
ber of the commission, stnted here
Friday in connection with Crow's
letter. "However, in designing the
bridges for the Coast highway there
were many things to be taken into
consideration which led to the con
clusion that concrete and steel should
be the dominate structural material'
Such things as resistance to high
winds .sometimes reaching a velocity
of 00 miles on hour, the deteriorating
effect of damp salt air, the danger
of fire destroying important bridges
and lnstfr the specifications of the
federal government for bridges on n
highway that mny be used for mili
tary purposes all must be considered
in designing these bridges, Mr. Wash
burne pointed out.
Finally, the commissioner explain
ed, the money for the bridges is com
in fmm fpiW.il sources nud not from
local taxpayers, except Insofar us it
comes from those who pay icuerai
taxes.
