of the future will be so classi
fied.
Key representatives from
cities along the route were in
attendance, Also on the program
were Max Landon of the state
legislature interim committee
and Linn county representative
Warren Gill.
Early in his address McKay
explained the tremendous fi
nnncial obstacles which stand in
the way of further highway de
velopment in the state and na
tion. He predicted that the Cas
cade Freeway would not be con
structed until Highway 99 be
came a four-lane thoroughfare
between Portland and Eugene,
Asked point-blank by Leban
on s Cortis Stringer if he fa
vored the specific Cascade pro
posal, McKay countered: "I'll go
further than that I favor all
roads "
The governor indicated that
he now entertained an open mind
on the question of tolls. He urged
the Cascade supporters to con
duct an investigation on the teas
lbility of financing the freeway
project by this method.
McKay spoke for over an hour
to the assembled group and later
answered questions from the
floor. The meeting which be
gan at 7 p.m. did not end until
9:45 as the inter-city Cascade
enthusiasts talked highway prob
lems over the table with the
Oregon governor.
McKay explained the highway
set-up from the board-of-control
standpoint with relation to the
highway commission and Engi
neer R. H. Baldock. He had
high praise for both.
Scio banker, Art Shaffer, in
charge of the program, called
on Landon and Gill for state
ments. The Sweet Home law
maker discussed the work of
the highway interim committee.
Gill urged the group to study the
experience of other states in the
construction of toll freeways.
Representatives from five dif
ferent newspapers questioned
Governor McKay after the meet
ing closed.
The Cascade Highway associa
tion will hold the November
meeting in Brownsville.

Stayfon Residence
Damaged by Blaze
While the family was at din
ner, the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Fred Albus on Third street was
discovered to be on fire, with
smoke pouring from the gable
on the south tide of the house.
School children passing by, no
tified the family the house was
afire and the Stayton fire de
partment war called.
The firemen succeeded in con
fining the fire to that portion of
the upper story although some
difficulty was encountered in
getting at the burning timbers,
making it necessary to chop
holes in the roof. The rest of
the house was considerably dam
aged by water and smoke.
Cause of the fire was not de
termined but since it centered
in the gable where the electric
service lines enter the house, de
fective wiring was advanced as
a possible cause.
Loss was estimated between
$2500 and $3000 and was cover
ed by insurance.
