Dallas At a special meeting of
the board of directors of the Dallas
chamber of commerce a resolution
was passed asking that if the state
highway commission could see Its
way clear and funds could be pro
vided so as not to embarrass the
state program of . roads that
they provide for the rocking of that
portion of .the Salmon River-Grand
Ronde Improvement district which
Is now graded, as the district does
not have the funds with which to
finish the road.
This road is Important to the
northwestern part of the state in
that it will greatly relieve tne con
gestion of traffic on the Portland-
Tillamook road and the Corvallls-
Newport highway. By this road the
distance is shortened to most all of
the beaches between Newport and
Tillamook. From Salem to the
mouth of the Salmon river by way
of Dallas the distance will be only
miles or not to exceed two hours
driving time as the heavy grades
by this route have been eliminated
and there are practically no curves
that will require the slackening of
sneed.
A committee was appointed w
assist with the Jersey tour which
Is to be held Friday of tills week.
A letter was read from W. G. Ide,
ot the state chamber asking for aid
in the establishment of a ssu.uuu
dairy association whose object will
be to assist farmers In financing
dalrv herds in the Willamette vai-
lev. If stock to this amount can be
subscribed the association can then
borrow cheap money up to half a
million dollars which will be loaned
to the farmers.
