Reserve and Federal Farm Loan Acts The Comptroller of the Currency recently made the , following report to Congress: "We now have the Federal Reserve System, which we ,' believe assures us against panics and fears, such as have in the past, at intervals, disturbed our commerce and paralyted our Industries. The Rural Credits, or Federal Farm Loan System, will' aid in securing permanent com- ' mercial strength, and safety, based on the sure founda , tidus of prosperous and thriving communities of farm ers, held to the soil by ties of ownership and encouraged ' and aided , to secure constantly increasing results per man, per acre, and per day. -' "In reviewing our banking and fiscal situation we seem now to be Intrenched financially almost as firmly as it Is possible to provide for whatever Increases of army and navy the Congress may think to be necessary." This bank is a member of the Federal Reserve System, OPEN COMPETITION POSITIVELYASSUREO All Contractors to Have Chanco to Bid on Proposed Highways. In reply to an Inquiry from the Legislative Good Roads Committee as to what its policy would be iu the matter of awarding contract for road construction; if the ponding road bond bill should bo approved by the voters in the June election, the State High way Commission Issued the following stutcmtml: "We recognise the propriety of your Inquiry and therefore hereby author lie you on our behalf to say that this Commission, at a public meeting held at Portland on this dale, adopted the following resolution: "Whereas there exists in the pub lic mind an impression that undue profits have heretofore been made by. paving contractors in Oregon, " 'Be it resolved that it will be the policy of the Highway Commission to call for bids on all standard types of pavement In open and fair competi tion and to award contracts to the lowest responsible bidder who will be required to give a good and sufficient guarantee for the permanency of his work. " 'Be It further resolved that in the event no satisfactory bid can be ob tained the Highway Commission will proceed to do the work itself by force account after the purchase and in stallation of Its own paving plant.' "The above resolution is intended as a frank statement to the public of what our policy will be. If there Is anything which is not fully covered It is due to an oversight on our part and not due to any desire to evade any issue or question. "We may summarize our plans as follows: We shall demand and en deavor to acquire for the state full value for every dollar of public money expended. If the bond issue is adopt ed we shall so far as possible, com mence work in every county In which work is to be done at the earliest possible moment. We shall not favor one county or locality over another, but will, to the best of our ability, be fair to the various sections of the llate." OREGON FARMERS HAVE . EVERYTHING TO GAIN Under the plan submitted In the road bonding bill, the farmer has everything to gain and nothing to lose. According to a compilation by the State Tax Commission, agricul ture in Oregon pays on approximately 26 per cent of the total taxable prop erty, timber and lumbering on 19 per cent, city and towns on 41 per cent and public utilities on 14 per cent Designated as they are to meet the requirements of the state as a whole, these main through arteries will be built from city limits to city limits, the cities alone having authority over city streets. The Highway Commis sion has announced that, where any of tbe main roads to be improved pass through the smaller towns and villages and the street is not already Improved, the Commission will hard surface that portion of the road in cluded within tbe limits of such towns and villages without additional cost to such communities. When improved these main lines will serve not only the agricultural' districts through which they pass, but will also serve centers of population tbe principal market pla:es. They will be market roads as well as through state roads not luxuries. The State Highway Commissioners, who will have charge of the disburse ment of the proposed $6,000,000 road bonds, have given the assurance that all roads built under their supervision will be constructed honestly. Con tracts for tbe work will be subject to free and open competition. There will be no gouging of the public. No, Mr. Taxpayer, your taxes will not be Increased one ten cent piece on account of the proposed $6,000,000 good roads bonds. Both the interest and tbe principal of the entire bond issue are provided by the increased automobile license and the standing quarter mill state road tax.
