Highway Planning Held Up
Awaiting Source of Funds
Silverton, Aug. 16 Until the amount of funds available Is
known it is impossible for the state highway commission to plan
future programs, R. H. Baldock, state highway engineer, told
members of the Cascade Highway association and the Chamber of
Commerce Monday night. Post-war costs are 65 percent above
fthose of the pre-war period, he
said.
Ninety percent of the $18,000,
000 allocated for construction in
Oregon in the next three years
has already been contracted with
prime consideration "the great
est good for the greatest num
ber of people." Funds have been
divided into five geographical
sections with 23.25 percent to
the Portland area; 18.83 percent
to the northwest area; 40.21 per
cent to the southwestern sec
tion; 18.98 percent to eastern
and 17.83 percent to central Ore
gon, he said.
Proposed national road legis
lation was opposed by Baldock
on four points; too much inter
ference by Washington officials:
increased tendence to depend on
government for all assistance;
government interest in smaller
farm-to-market roads and fed
eral legislation tending to de
crease money in the state to car
ry on its program and state so
cialism. Completion of the Wilsonville
highway from the White school
north of Hubbard to Barbour
boulevard in Portland was urged
by Arthur Schafer, Scio, presi
dent of the Cascade Highway
association. Plans were also
started for a caravan to start at
Springfield and picking up ad
ditional automobiles en route to
Portland for a luncheon meet
ing with the Chamber of Com
merce the last week in Septem
ber. Lindsay Wright, Stayton,
was named chairman of a com
mittee to make arrangements
The association will hold its
next meeting September 19

Europe's Trades
Paris, Aug. 16 (IP) Marshall
Aid Chief Paul G. Hoffman told
European trade leaders today
their countries are doing less
than they should to earn their
U.S. dollars.
Hoffman said he saw no way
to meet Europe's chronic dollar
shortage except by earning dol
lars through exports. He had
found, he added, little evidence
that this fact is being squarely
faced except by one or two
countries.
