BIG LEAD IN wil L CRM PRESIDENT POWER COMMISSIONER BARRETT AIDS YEON IN OPPOSING WORK ON PENDLETON-JOHN DAY HIGHWAY Eastern Oregon Member Has Change of Front Kegarding Necessity of Local Project. As ,long as the state highway com mission is composed as at present a policy of concentrating money on tourist roads will be followed. ' and roads of leglonal importance from an economic standpoint will have no chance. This attitude on the part of two members, Yeon and Barratt, was indi cated In Portland yesterday at a con ference on the subject of the Fendle- ton-John Day highway. Mr. Booth was absent from the state and did not attend the meeting. The conference was between mem bers of the Umatilla county court, forestry officials and the highway commission'. District Forester Cecil supported the road, suld that his rec ommendation that federal money be expended upon it would stand ami that he would ask for more. Judge Schannep explained that Umatilla county has $65,000 of bond money available for the road and that this with the $50,000 of federal money Promised makes a total or $115,000. However it will cost not less than $160,000 to build the new' grade v up Camas creek from Dale to Uklah' and state aid was asked for. lianatt Airaoist Project Both Commissioners Yeon and Bar rutt opposed any such move and de rided the project. Mr. Barratt's op position was unexpected as he had made a speech in, Pendleton vigorously supporting the road and it was pre sumed he would- -favor the. prboet. The Barratt contention yesterday! was that' the country to the south has Fifteen Autos and Two Dead Men Found in River KANSAS CITY, Aug. 30. (U. re insurance companies participated to day in the Investigation or the "ban dits automobile graveyard" in the Missouri river at Nearman," Kans. They believe many cars were driven into the river to collect the Insurance Fifteen were discovered and one rais ed to the-surface. Divers reported twr bodies In submerged cars. None o the bodies have been recovered yet The police believe the dead men wer' members of bandit gangs, killed in gun fights with the officers and bur ied In the river by their pals.

It is considered ImproUible that the mark would be duplicated by an other laundry outside the lrgei cities.

Judge Scnannep asked if the country between Bend and Klamath Is any better and It was admitted it is not yet state aid is bein! given on the latter project. Olcott Is Opposed I fn the ranks of those who are strong for tourist roads as opposed to market roads there was an air of hostility to wards the I'msttilla-Grant. county road. Governor olcott, who was recently here with the commission, is private ly quoted as having talked against the project. The reasons for Commission er Parrutt's change of heart are nol clear. However the fact the Eastern Oregon member is agi'lnm the pro ject makes it unlikely any favorable eommissTn.'"' hud frum the pm,"m The county court yesterday ask,ed that the state survey the loud from Nye to Uklah and this request was taken under consideration by the state commission. Judge Schannep Is In clined to favor spending the county's $65,000 on work woilth of Nye. How ever such a course would mean using up money that has been intended fo'' use in .mulching federal and state money for the John Day grade and If this course Is followed it may mejin an 'ndefln'te postponement of the Grant county road as the John Day grade If the main. obstacle to traffic at present.
