Counties Cooperate Lewis to
Make An Extended Trip.
(Special to Tbo liullctln.)
SALEM, Ore., Oct. 1C. Central
Oregon hlgluvays centering ut Uen.l
will como In for n big iharo of atten
tion and subsequent expenditure
under the provisions of the Shncklc
ford bill, which provides for coopera
tive road Improvement by tho federal
forest service and the state and coun
ties. At a meeting of the highway com
mission hero Inst week tho matter
of approving certain main hlGhwajs
was taken up by 11. J. Finch, senior
highway engineer of tho fsdcral of
fice of public roads and rural engi
neering. Tho designation of tho Btato roads
by tho commission, Mr. Finch said,
was essential, before the forest ser
vice could obtain the necessary road
funds. The forest servlco also de
sires to cooperate with counties In
the mapping and building of roads
running through reserves.
Hero Is a list of tho roads r,p
ptoved by tho commission:
No. 1, from Portland to Ashland
on tho Pacific Highway.
No. 2, from Portland to Ontario
via Baker.
No. 3, from The Dalles to Klamath
Falls via Dead.
No. I, from Portland to Ontario
via John Day.
No. G, from Florence to Mitchell.
No. G, from Mend to Lakovlow.
No. 7, from Bugcno to Klamath
Falls.
Improvement of theso routes will
now bo undertaken under section 8
of tho Shackleford bill. That section
provides that tho forestry department
will match the expenditures of coun
ties for road Improvement. For this
purposo thero will bo nvullablo for
Oregon out of federal funds, $127,
794 next year.
That amount will bo spont exclu
sively on tho routes designated. Tho
federal work will bo done only on tho
main roads adopted by the state, so
that subsequent expenditures by tho
stato Itself, which would be probablo
under the circumstances, would sup
plement tho starts made with tho
forestry funds, with a view to getting
permanent roads of real excellence.
Will ; ()er Route.
John H. Lewis, stato engineer, and
In charge of tho state's highway
work, says that Mr. Finch Is very
favorably Impressed with tha road
projects of Central Oregon, and in
clined to encourage a good deal of
work on both the main highway load
Ing frohVThe Dalles to Klamath via
Hcnd, and especially In the establish
ment of a permanent and Improved
route from Ilend to I.akevlew.
In a couple of weeks Mr. Lewis
and Mr. Finch will make an extended
trip over the roads In question.
Thereafter Uie latter will determine
Just how tho funds should bo allot
ted, and It will bo up to th counties
Involved lo take advantngo ot tho of
fers of tho forestrv ilnnnrlmpnt. Pre
sumably, If counties arc unwilling to
Join with the department liv Improv
ing the designated roads within their
boundaries, the funds will bo taken
to other counties who want to avail
themselves of the cooperative offer.
If Mr. Lewis approves tho proposed
routes finally, as he Bays ho Is practi
cally Buro to do, thoy will bo placed
on the official map of stato hlghwajs
Issued by the commission for noxt
year. Thereafter It would be reason
ably sure that stato work would bo
done only on thoso approved routes,
In preference to any minor roads.
The exact division ot tho federal
fund will not be determined, It Is
understood, until after thu first of
tho year. At that time tho counties
will bo given tho chnnco to get big
Bllces ot tho forest funds It they c.tre
to make equal appropr'atlons.

HIGHWAYS
in OREGON
(Dy Eugene E. Smith, PrdidcnJ
Centre! Labor Council)
LAlKHt'S ATTITU1H3 ON HIGH.
WAV CONSTRUCTION.
In reprinting the road smposlum
articles which appeared In Tho Ore
gon Voter recently, there is present
ed today the article discussing
labor's attltudo on highway con
struction, written by Eugcno E.
Smith, president of the Central
Labor Council.
Oregon needs good ronds and many
of them, llecause labor took a de
cided stand against tho million nnd
a quarter road bond Issue of Mult
nomah County this should not be In
terpreted to mean that It does not
favor good roads. Hather labor
wishes to bo In harmony with a gen
eral program for Improved highways
that promises equal consideration for
nil elements and Interests.
I would say further that labor will
bo found In agreement with a gen
eral program that while differing
from Its conceptions of the problem
In snnio details has during Its de
termination afforded nn honest op
portunity to labor to advance Its.
labor's, Ideas on tho subject without
prejudice.
Just as tho city dweller Is directly
Interested In our city roads or Btrects.
so Is the farmer directly Interested
In our country roads, llenco labor's
general policy reluthe to roads to bo
Improved, that Is, their location, how
those will bo Improved, meaning the
nature of the Improvement or con
struction, and how financed, will bo
that of tho organized farmers as only
through these organizations have wo
any way of determining tho farmers'
desires. Labor Is generally opposed
to bond Irsucs.
Wo prefer to see tho actual con
struction performed by the munici
pality direct, bo it city, county, stato
or nation. If, however It Is ilono by
contract, clauses protecting common
tabor, specifying conditions of em
ployment, minimum wages and call
ing for tho cmplo) merit of homo
labor, Bhould by all means be Insort
ed In the contracts. Homo labor
may bo said to bo that which has
by length of residence qualified ns a
voter Insofar as residence qualifica
tion Is concerned.
Work on road Improvement pro
jects should be so arranged when
practicable, that It will be performed
during dull seasons of unemployment
of n private character, but safeguards
should 1m restored so that It will not
permit thu luduo exploitation of it
glutted labor condition.
Education of tho people ns to costs,
systems and ronds to bo Improved,
should bo undertaken by n proper
organization whoso Intercuts aro that
of tho public at largo nnd not that
of private Interests. It Is lilting
hero to say that labor believes that
tho prlvato Interests engaged In
constructing roads or furnishing road
material should advcrtlso honestly
their ability to construct nnd their
wares Just ns any othor business con
cern has to und not resort to politics
nor to masquerading as Good Itoad
Associations, etc.
Labor Is opposed tn royalties as a
matter of principle. Wo believe pav
Ing patent aro grounded on common
engineering knowledge rather than
upon tho application of uny nowlj do
v'sed or discovered mechanical prin
ciple. Whllo organized labor of Oregon
has no well defined policy us to
convict labor being used on road
work, it Is safe to say neither labor
nor any other element of any conse
quence In Oregon would stand for
this lalwir being farniod out to road
contractors. In other stutes, how out,
the stato Is using and using profitab
ly to Itself and to tho prisoners, con
victs for this purpose, and personally
It appeals to me as being n very good
use to put theso moil to, particularly
If they aro glum somo remuneration,
so when they leave tho Institution
they will bo bettiv nolo to contluuo
law-abiding citizens.
In conclusion, ' would suggost that
the fanners should be encouraged to
Join the farmers' organizations, us
this will mean more frequent discus
Rlons of a community nature by more
of tho farmers, and thlr can only re
sult In a moro progresshe under
standing of the good roads' movement

Do and Then That It Mutt Do.
In the fourteen month extending
from December St h, 11)11, to l'ebnmry
10th, 11UU, there were fifteen mes
sages, letters and speeches of Trett
dent Wilson which I hue rend. In
theee llftveu messages, letters and
speeches, during those fourteen
mouths, President Wilson tool: forty
one different positions about prepared
ness and the measures necessary to
secure It; and each of these forty-one
positions contradicted from one to sir
of the others. In many of his speeches
the weasel words of one Kirtlou of
the speech took nil the meaning nut
of the words used lu another portion
of that speech; and these latter words
tbeiusrUfx Issd a weasel significance
ns regards jet other word. He ar
gued for preparedness und against
preparedness, lie statist that our
army wns nmple; niul that we did
not hac enough troops to patrol the
Mexican bonier In tlmo of peace. He
said the world wns on fire, and that
purls were liable to drop anywhere
nnd cause us to burst Into, flame; and
he also said that there was no Imme
diate danger. He said that there vrus
no sudden crisis; and then again that
he did not know what a single day
would bring forth. Ho said that we
were en the verge of n maelstrom;
nnd then that there was no special
or critical situation. He said the dan
ger was constant and Immediate; nnd
also that wo were not threatened from
any quarter. He said that there was
no fear among us; and also that we
were lu dally dancer of seeing the
vital Interest and honor of the country
menaced and tho ting of the United
Stair stained with Impunity. Ho
snld that wo wero lu tery critical
(lunger of being lnolved lu the great
European struggle; und also that
there was no need to discuss the
question of defense, or to get licnoiiH
or excited about It. In mm and the
same speech, he s.ilil that it siilllclent
number of men would uluii(ccrvaiid
that If they did not ho would bo
ushanied of America; mid hu also snld
that bo did not know of any law
which laid upon them the duty of com
ing Into the army, If It should be
nctemary to call for volunteer. Hr
said that wn needed 500,000 volunteers,
and that If thero was any legitimate
criticism of this demand It was be
cause It was too small; and a soon
ns Congressman Hay objected to the
plan, bo promptly abandoned It. He
said that the National Qtinrd was not
the proper body upon whlih lo rely;
nnd then not only ehanged his own
mind but forced hi own Secretary
of War out of his cabinet, because tlili
Secretary Msesed less flexible con
t lotions nnd was nimble Instantly tn
