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

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
