"When the hallways of the state
w-re constructed it was little thought
that in time huge trucks carrying
freight and passengers would cause so
much damage. Leading highway ex
perts from all parts of the United
KtaU-s are r,ow experimenting in an
effort to discover some form of pav
ing that will withstand the heavy
loads.
"The pave.f highways of Oregon
font approximately $24,000 a mile.
Pennsylvania estimates that the
highways intended to withntand heavy
loads and speed that will be laid will
cost 1 48,000. It would coxt Oregon
jut as much to lay the same type of
pavement. Should we spend that
muh money for the benefit of 114
percent of the population?"
When Oregon's first bond issue of
M.000,000 was voted, according to Mr.
Yeon, it was expected that the issue
would build approximately 500 miles
of paved highways. The commission
in atUmptirg to carry out this pro-
i gram coriNtructeo: highways that
have proved inadiuate for the heavy
traffic that has developed. A heavier
paving has been placed on the roads
this year, but it is still unable to
withstand the loads of heavy trucks.
A recent survey of the roads devel
oped that traffic was as follows:
.1.7 percent horse drawn, 1.2 percent
motorcycles, 72.8 percent cars with
Oregon licenses, 14.5 percent pas
senger cars with licenses from other
states, i d percent light duty trucks
;artJ 3.2 percent trucks of 1.5 tors and
I over.
A law passed at the last session of
the legislature prohibits trucks with a
load exceeding 10,500 pounds to oper
ate faster than 12 miles an hour and
jno truck is allowed on the highways
iwith a load of more than 22,009
ipoir.ds.

APPLICATION BLANKS ARE
READY FOR SOLDIER BONUS
Salem September 1 (Special)
Fifty thousand application blank
for the Oregon state loan and
bonus which was voted to Oregon's
x-service men by the people last
June, are now being distributed to
every part of the gtate. These blank
forms, upon which the applicants
must establish their eligibility for
the bonus, are being sent to Ameri
can Legion posts of which there are
104 in the state with the request that
the posts give them to all eligible ex
servioe men.
This action was taken by the state
bonus commission in order to save
considerable time in' getting the bonus
and loan into the hands of the ex.
service men. The initial bond issue
of 15,000,000, already is being float
ed. Bids are to be opened October
10th and the commission expects to
have money ready by November 1st.
Py having the applications come in
early the commission hopes to have
a large number of checks ready for
distribution the moment the funds
are realized from the sale of bonds.
Steps have been taken by the com
mission to interest the bond buyine;
market of the entire United States.
The bond are to be sold at par or
above ard not to exceed six percent
interest and the commission expects
to sell at an interest rate of about
five and one-half percent.
The administrative force to
handle this big task of passfcig upon
applications has been created in
the U. S. National hank buiHir;

necessarily will be a slower process

to follow its past policy of avoiding
anv and all avoidable delays.
Only an unexpected suit to test
the constitutionality of the law will
now prevent payment of several
thousand claims in November. Such
a suit has not been launched by the
commissioners because of their belief

There have been many contributing fac

comfort and dependability; the construction
of smooth durable highways; the production
of a motor fuel Red Crown gasoline
which meets every test of power and mile

Stations at convenient locations, making
Red Crown gasoline readily available to
motorists.
Look for Standard Oil Service Stations
and for the Red Crown sign at garages,
service stations, and other dealers. There you
will be able to get good service with Red
