THAT'S THAT! LET'S GO I
rnHE members of the state highway commission came
to Eugene Friday and sat down with the Lane oounty
court and members pf the County Chamber of Commerce
for a frank discussion of highway problems in Lane
county. For some time it has beon apparent that Lane
pnnntv and tho hia-hwav commission were not talking
the same language. Result the Coast road with 18 miles
Into Florence impossible ana 0 miles mw junoiion
incomplete ; the AlcKenzie highway not brought' up to
state standard at this end; the Willamette highway mov
ing toward Oakridge, but slowly; the Roosevelt highway
in this oounty untouched except for a few isolated miles
outside of Florence.
When the highway commission left Eugene Friday
evening a lot of misunderstanding and a lot of un
truthful arossiD about the situation had been oloared
away. The highway commission learned that Lane oounty
knows what it wants and is reasonable in what it wants,
that its communities are not squabbling with each other
over who shall oome first but standing together on a
program well thought out.
The countv's representatives learned that Lane
eounty is not being punished by the commission, that on
the contrary tne commission is anxious to see tne major
roads in Lane oounty finished without delay, and that
while the buildinsr of a seotion of the Roosevelt down
Coast or of the Central Oregon highway far from Lane
eounty may seem like wandering far from home, the
state commission is working on a state-wide system
without whioh any dotaohea county system, however
highly doveloped, would bo relatively useless.
While the commission could not bind itself to specific
promises to undertake any particular piece of Lane

bind itself to the speoifio statement that as soon as the
money is available it will without delay oomploto the
road to the Coast, the McKormo, tne Koosevolt, tne Wil
lamette to Oakridge and eventually dear across the pass,
Ibis statement means a lot
Of oourse, with the Dunne bills threatening, the com
mission at the present time cannot make financial com-
mlttments for next yea.' Of oourse, thore have boon
other years in the past when the commission's revenues
' were not threatened and when much of this work might
have moved forward had Lane oounty presented a unitod
front, but it's no use orying over spilled milk. We lot
(the financing of the Coast road be knocked out on a tech
nicality a few years back. Maybe the commission didn't
eee Lane oounty ' problems dearly enough; but that's
11 past
Lane connty has two big jobs to do if it wants its
major highways completed In the near future. It must
work with the rest of the state to insure the defeat of
the Dunne bills whioh would wreok the state, program
here and everywhere else. It must provide without delay
its share of the money noeded to complete the state
highways here. Tax levies for the Coast rood and the
MoRensie job must be put on the ballot this fall and
MUod.-
The completion of the major highways is of tho ut
most importance to our future. No other faotor is so im
portant in our industrial and oivio development. In tho
oounty as in the state the completion of the basic system
must oome first The Oounty Chamber, although a now
organization, has justified its existence by the new un

True, a bad financial situation was
Inherited by the Patterson administra

be corrected without erecting a tax
wall against the outside investor.
The advocates of a atate Income
tax must base their persistence upon
one of two ansuinotlons, either they
believe the people of Oregon are very
vaccUatlng la their opinions, switching
back and forth from year to year,
with everv veerlna wind, or else they
have adopted the theory that they
have nothing to lose by again Initiat
ing the measure, and conditions may
arise, which will allow the proposal to
slip through, even though a majority
of the voters are against It.
Whatever the cause, we belfere
majority of the people are sick of
this everlasting income tax agitation,
rear In and yoar out, regardless of its
futility. And , we also believe that
those who are sincere in their belief

efit their cause more by declaring a
moratorium for a few years, and giv

breath, instead of persisting in put

Questions and Amwen
QUESTION: R. M. writea: "When
I was a year old I had whooping
cough, and from the coughing I lost
almost all hearing In one ear.
A doctor told me it would be almost
impossible for me to ever hear in
that car again, for he said one of
the nerves had been deadened and
the drum was too weak. Do you
think It is possible for me to re
gain hearing in that ear? Or. do
you think I have waited too long?
I am 20 years old.
ANSWER: Your trouble may be
caused by the closing of the eusta
chian tube which admits air from
the throat into tne inner ear.
It Is often possible to relieve the
stoppage by curing any eiceasive
catarrhal condition. This can be
accomplished through dieting. I have
seen several coses of deafness
caused by whooping cough which
have been' cured through chiro
practic treatment. It seems that the
continual hard cough practically
misplaces some of the vertebrae,
which makes an Impingement npon
the nervea supplying the ear. If
more pressure exists on one side
than the other, it is possible that
the nerve supply will be almost
completely shut off. If this is the
cause of your desfness, you will
notice an improvement in your
hearing after one or two treat
ments given by a chiropractor,
osteopath, naturopath, or any phy
sician who understands manipula
tive therapy.
QUESTION: Reader asks: "Is It
all right to use stewed prunes or
figs, or applesauce with a break
fast of oatmeal porridge?"
ANSWER: It is all right to use
stewed prunes, figs, raisins, or ap
plesauce with a breakfast contain
ing real wholewheat or real oat
meal, but a combination of these
stewed fruits and plain starchy
food does not seem to work ao well
together, causing excessive Zlatu
lenca.
