teen girls from the feeble minded
school have been placed In homes
under this system already, he said.
The twelve state Institutions,
scattered f?"t Roseburg to Pendle
ton, have 6000 Inmates and require
800 attendants, he has found. The
monthly payroll is $53,000 and oper
ating costs $133,000, an average per
capita cost of $35 and a capital
outlay of over $6,000,000. There Is
an acre of land owned for every in
mate, he said.
Holman criticised the tervloe
clubs for erecting Bims at the ent
rance of cities, which he termed
"totem poles"; There is no neces
sity for this for no one bit mem
bers are interested and they should
know the location of their clubs
and the meeting dates, he said.

ENROLLMENT
AT WILLAMETTE
BREAKS RECORDS
The freshman class at Willamette
university, which Is probably the
largest In the school's history, out
numbers the sophomore class by 84
students, according to figures In the
oflice of Registrar Tennant. The
total actual registration of first
year students reached the 213 point
Wednesday evening while the soph
omores could muster but 149.
Although the actual number of
registration- cards handed out by
Wednesday evening totaled 608, but
581 students were enrolled at that
time. The 27 students who had tak
en out cards were expected to file
them or decide not to attend school
within the next two days.
The junior class witn a total ot
80 students, Is the smallest of the
four groups in school, according to
present totals. The seniors are
represented by 81
It Is probable that the graduat
ing class of 1934 will have more
men than women for the first time
In the school's history. The Junior
and senior classes this year have
more women than men, but the
sophomore and freshman classes
have considerably more men than
women enrolled. Of the entire 881
registered 311 are men and 270
women.
The registration by classes Is:
Freshmen 213, sophomores 149, jun
iors 80, seniors 84, post graduate 10,

SPAULDING FOR
HIGHWAY WIDENING
(Continued from page 1)
titled to his own opinion as to the
best route to be selected," said
Spaulding. "I have decided which of
the routes I favor and each of the
other two members of the commis
sion are privileged to do the same.
If Mr, Van Duzer and Mr. Hanley
do not agree with me I am perfect
ly willing to abide by the decision
of the majority. What I am insisting
upon is that we get immediate ac
tion; that the commission meet and
clean up Its accumulation of busi
ness. We have enough work before
us to keep us meeting at least once
a week until eur relief program is
well under way.
1 am willing to leave engineer
ing details to the engineering staff.
but matters of policy should be de
termined by the commission alone."
In the same interview Mr. Spauld
ing revealed that he Intends tq
make a fight before the commission
to widen the Pacific highway be
tween Oregon City and Salem from
Its present average width of 16 feet
to a three-lane roadway ot 28 feet.
At the last meeting ot .the commis
sion .the engineering department
recommended a 20-foot "blacktop"
roadway with 6-foot gravel should
ers. Mr. Spaulding says that he will
insist that the roadway be widened
to 28 feet by the addition of heavy
6-foot concrete shoulders and resur
facing of the old pavement with
non-bkld blacktop.
In this program he says that he
will have the united support of civic
and commercial organizations from
Portland, Salem, Oregon City and
every other affected community and
that these Influences are now or
ganizing for a concerted drive In
support ot their petition for the
widening Improvement.
"No piece of construction work
which the highway department
could undertake at this time would
provide more possibility ot utilizing
hand labor for the relief of unem
ployment than such a widening pro
ject, and the need for providing
work Is the sole Justification for the
enlargement ot the highway pro
gram in such times as these."
"To consider anything less than
a 28 foot width for the heaviest
traveled section of highway In the
state when we start to spend money
for its Improvement Is absurd.
Northing less than a three lane
road will suffice and the Improve
ment made should be of a perma
nent nature. We have wasted
enough money In the past oo the
construction of Inadequate roads. It
Is all very well to talk of the need
for a third, a super highway be
tween Salem and Portland, but the
time for that Is yet years In the
future. In the meanwhile we have
got to put the present Pacific high
way In shape to handle the heavy
traffic It bears.
The present route, because ot
the manner In which It links up
the various cities and towns will
always be an Important road and
one which will always require at
least a three lane roadway.
"The highway commission Is al
ready committed to and has start
ed construction upon a super road
from Portland to Oregon City. Only
a small portion ot the travel over
that road will be local traffic. What
Is to be done with the mass ot
through traffic which will use It?
The only answer Is that the route
of the highway through Oregon
City must be straightened and wid
ened and the highway south from
Oregon city widened proportionate
ly. There may be one or two places
immediately south of Oregon City
where the available right-of-way
will not permit of tlie construction
of a 28 foot pavement with 8 foot
gravel shoulders for parking, but
these places are short In length and
the problem can be solved by pro
hibiting rwrklnv there
