ROADS AND OIL Isn’t it about time for the Oregon branch of the Auto­ mobile Association of America and a number of individ­ uals to offer their apologies to the highway commission and its engineers for the abuse and criticism that was heaped upon their .heads last year when the extensive oiling program was begun on the Columbia river high­ way? asks the Bend Bulletin.
