Even in the protests voiced against selection of a route which -would skirt the city to the west the so-called Star Mill route It was obvious that most of the speakers would abide by the decision If the commission should finally select It rather than chance diversion of through traffic over the cutoff. There was an easily recognized undertone of sentiment favorable to such local concessions as might be necessary to Induce the commis sion to clinch McMinnvllle's loca tion on the highway through Invest ment of upwards to $250,000 In per manent Improvements. Thus did the shadow of tne cut off project (Illustrated by the ac companying sketch), for the grading and surfacing of which (75,000 has already been allocated and wnicn will cut 4 miles from the road dis tance between Amity and Dayton, play back and forth over yesterday's picture. The first contract for work on the cutoff Is scheduled to be let in June, but completion of the road will reoulre additional lunos. McMlnnv lie was chosen oy tne commission as one of the cities in the northwestern part of the state to share In the distribution of federal funds for the improvement of nlgn way routes through towns, because of the abnormally heavy traffic which passes through the city be cause of its location. Besides car rvinir the regular West Side high way load the route through the city along a narrow, busy downtown street also carries the bulk of the traffic between Portland and the Tillamook and Lincoln county beaches via the Salmon river and McMlnnvllle-Tlllamook roads. At times during tire height of the sum mer season the count of vehicles passing through McMlnnvllle has been second highest to all points in the state. Three routes were under con sideration at yesterday's hearing: l "B" street (present route) with an estimated cost ot improvement including right-of-way oi sim,iu:. 2 "E" street, adjacent to prln tnal hiiKinpM area. $178,818. 3 atar Mill route, striking the city to the west, an entirely new location circling the city in a wide arc and increasing the distance 2'4 miles but avoiding all local con Dct.lnn S2R7.000. A fourth suggested route Involv ing the construction oi overneaa and undergrade railroad crossings was promptly eliminated by the commission as being too expensive fnr mnsirieratlon. mtw At.tomev Eugene Marsh, rep resenting the city council and the phomw of commerce of McMlnn vllle which he said were In perfect accord, championed the present rot through the business section, pledged the cooperation of the council in widening tnc rara remnvinc teleohone poles and installing suitable lighting stand- -rri. As an alternate plan he said the neoole of McMlnnvllle would be satisfied with the E street route "or any other route which goes tnrougn the city." Th star Mill route, he said snuiH Kucrlflce the interests and in vestments of business men and nfonertv owners. W. T. Vinton, attorney and for mer state senator, sounded the key note of opposition to any location which would take tne nignway oui side or around the city. Tracing the history of the present highway building program In Oregon with it. inception in an enactment of the 1017 legislature, he said tne nign way system was intended to serve the people of the state and Its cities and towns and not the "fleet ing tourists who speed along." Vinton said that the legislative act contemplated and required the location of highways to link up tne cities and towns of the state and make them more easily accesslbl1 to the farmers, and the people of the state voted the bonds for con struction with that understanding. We of Yamhill county voted 1750.000 In bonds to build feeder roads and provide the ngnts-oi-wav and roadbeds for state high ways," he said. "Our people have invested thousands of dollars In Im provements dependent upon high way traffic and we ao not propose to sacrifice these investments oi nermlt our business to be ruined." chas. L. Williams, who admitted being one of the sponsors of the star Mill route, saia tnat ne nou been converted to the idea that It would be better to keep the high way through the city. Others sneaking on behalf of the downtown routes were Earl Wright, F. W. Fenton, B. O. staats. presi- lent of the chamber of commerce; Lee Waldron, former president of the chamber, and W. M. Brown, highway produce stand operator who presented petitions signed oy Mc Mlnnvllle and Yamnui county resi dents.
