No one can read the records of
the highway commission's handling
of Polk county work .without real
izins that the commission has earn
estlv soufiht to appease all factions
a id in order to make an amicable
disposal of th various claims, has
been willing to appropriate some
thitwr like a quarter of t million
dollars more to the county than it
was entitled to. At every stage of
the game, concessions have been
offered. Especially concessions to
Dallas. Now that the issue his
been raised in an apparent effort to
sxiure for Dallas not only Jthe road
t) Salem but to pull the mam high
wnv there also, it'.is perfectly prop
er that the work on the Salem road
be suspended until the rights of all
are determined. Here we wish to
Doint out that with the Huber con
tract annulled Independence will
lackTonlvIfour miles of having a
paved road to Salem while Dallas
will lack eieht miles. It emphasi
zes the fact that Dallas is .quite a
distance away from the beaten
track of travel in the valley and
i?ives an understanding of under
lying reasons for its actions in the
hiehwav matter. The limitations
of location however, are hard to
overcome.
They are still explaining and ad
vancing reasons for the gasoline
shortage but it is an assured fact
that somewhere near the bottom of
the thing is the prospect of a profit
for someone.
