Wheeler Saturday Issued a statement answering previous re ports on the status of county highways. Commissioner Wheeler's state, ment follows: Only one who is entirely Ignor ant of Lane County's road pro gram or who completely disre gards the truth could put out such information as is contained in an article, "County Road System Needs Improvement, But the Out look Isn't Too Promising" which appeared in the Eugene Register Guard 'of Sunday, July 14, and is attributed to County Engineer P. M. Morse. In support of my state ment, I wish to point out a few facts which the records will verify. As to maintenance, the county during the 12 months ending June 30, 1946, has crushed 83,768 yards of rock and purchased 48,206 yards or a total of 131,874 yards. Some of this rock has been placed in stock pile for future use, but a like amount of stock pile rock has been put oh county roads. So approxi mately 13974 yards of rock have been added to our roads during the year. Power Machines Working As to blade work, 10 power machines have been continually at work (except for break downs and repair) blading and ditching the 1500 miles of county roads. The re pair of oiled roads has been re tarded by unfavorable weather, as patching cannot be done in the rain. As a result of this condition, a third patching crew has been added to the force and patching work is being done as rapidly as weather will permit. True, our roads are not in per fect condition, but neither are they in a deplorable condition. And much more can be said than that "they are open." Among the construction projects for the past year are the follow ing: ROADS Babb road connecting River Avenue and Hunsaker Lane, 1 miles, new grade and rock. flace road near fall Creek, 1 miles, new grade and rock. Eleventh Street Semuca area connection, 1 mile, new grade and rock. West Eleventh Street to Haw kins Hill," mile, new grade. Myers road extension, near Saginaw, 1 mile new grade, par tially completed. BRIDGES Three on Woahink Lake, one on Siltcoos outlet, one on Sut ton Lake, one on Henderson Avenue, and one over Tail Race below Walterville.

Pope Receives U.S. Officials VATICAN CITY Pope Pius urged a group of American senators and representatives whom he received Saturday in private audience to share the experiences acquired on their around the world journey, so that men will understand more fully "the havoc wrought by war and the tremen dous difficulty of reconstruction." The Pope spoke in English. He told his listeners, who arrived from Cairo by way of Athens, that the spectacles of shattered land scapes that they had seen and the havoc in the lives of men should not be "locked away in idle mem ory." The pontiff afterward received a second group of Americans, in cluding Postmaster General Rob ert E. Hannegan, Undersecretary of War W. Stuart Symington, Sen Millard E. Tydings of Maryland and Gael Sullivan, second assist ant postmaster general. The Pope also addressed this group in Eng lish. "Truly plteuos," said the pon tiff, "is the physical condition of multitudes today, more piteous by far, the spiritual.' Thousands, he said, craved the consolations of religion, and "in many lands find it difficult to se cure them." Eugene Register-Guard, Eusene. pre. Sunday.

As to plans for future work, aside from the two mentioned in the article as being the only ones contemplated, county equipment has been at work for two weeks and will likely continue through the entire summer on the Route F project of constructing a trail over the mountain where the 1775 ft. tunnel is contemplated. (This is a major project.) Other projects . contemplated include: . 1. A connecting link from Springfield City limits to the Mohawk road. 2. New entrance from the old Goldson road to the State high way No. 36 at Bear Creek. 3. Making turnouts on the Thompson Creek-Indian Creek road to allow for school bus- and logging truck operations in a narrow winding road. 4. Eliminating bad curves on North Fork of Siuslaw. 5. Riprap on Mackey road along Fern Ridge Lake. 6. Raise grade on Miller road near old Lord place. 7. Finish and rock Myers road near Saginaw. 8. Raisefill North Beech road. BRIDGES Seavey Road, Goodpasture Island, Richardson, Two Knowles Creek, Mercer Lake, Salmon Creek, Turner Creek. Either of these lists could be added to at great length. County Does Have Program Concerning the projected oiling program for this summer, a list was made up in January, as the law provides must be done, and Includes (instead of the five miles according to the article previously mentioned) 49.8 miles. That pro gram is under way at the present time. (Editor's Note: The five miles reported should have read 50.) It is not likely that all the work contemplated can be done this year, but the county does have a program and the work Typhoon Death Toll At Hong Kong Now 10 HONG KONG-04)-The known death toll of a 106-mile-an-hour typhoon which lashed Hong Kong for three hours last Thursday rose to 10 Saturday as rescuers dug through debris for the bodies of four children, four men and a woman killed when a house col lapsed on them during the height of the gale. One other person pre viously had been reported killed. The typhoon wrecked six ships, destroyed communications and sent huge waves dashing over the road fronting the harbor.
