In outlining his plans thia noon,
Mr. Drooks was unable to say just
how soon tho contemplated Improve
ments would be made, or to give any
definite cost estimate, but stated
that they would keep pace with tho
growth of the city. "I am not
through with Dend by any moans,"
he said, "and I know that the growth
of tho city will ultimately warrant
the building operations which I havo
in mind."
Mr. Drooks Is now receiving con
tractors' estimates regarding the cost
of moving tho old Inn 140 feot north
on Wall street, to allow for an ad
dition bolng mado to tho new build

had In tho now building for perma
nent roomers. Two bouses will havo

URGE BEND BOOSTERS
TO BACK MEASURE.
"Will Mean No Addition to Tax nor
den, Hayn V. A. Fofbc, at Com
mercial Club Luncheon
Multnomah, Boars Ilrunt.
(From Wednesday's Dally.)
Explanation by Vernon A, Forbes
of the provisions of the $6,000,000
state road bond issue, to be voted
on at popular election In June, was
the feature of the weekly luncheon
of thofBend Commercial club, held
this noon at tho Pilot Uutto Inn.
The matter of the proposed city bond
issue' of 1100,000 to Insure com
mencement of construction on the
Btrahorn railroad, was morcly touch
ed On, C. 8. Hudson, chairman of
the speolal investigating commit
tee, asking for a week's extension
of time. High school students wero
present to get materia! for a dobato
hinging on the advisability of allow
ing the bond Issue, and were aaked
by President Floyd Dement to como
back next Wednesday, when he prom
ised that information would be on
tap.
Must Aid MetiMurc.
"It Is up to Deschutes county to
guarantee a big majority for the
state road bond issue," was the dec
laration of Mr. Forbes, In speaking
of tho atate bonding measure. "I
should advise that the roada com
mlttco of tho club map out an active
campaign in this connection."
Mr. Forbes explained that the is
suo would not constitute an added ex
penso to the tax payers, as the quar
ter mill road tax already Jn effect
and tho Increased kuto 'license fea.
doubled by the last legislature, would
effectually take care of both princi
pal and interest. At tho present
rate of Income this would leave a
'.surplus of $760,000 at tho end of
20 years, and with the normal in
crease in the number of automobiles
owned in the state, tho surplus
should be much greater than this,
ho asserted.
To Bend Delegate.
He explained in addition that Mult
nomah county, according to prcsont
rating, would pay 38 per cont of tho
road tax, and 44 per cent of the II-
conso fees, and that nono of the con
templated Improvements would be
mado irr-that county.
Paul C. Garrison reported for tho
roads committee on the work bolng
done to securo Improvement on the
road between the city and tho brick
yard. Tho club voted to sond a del
egate to Salem Friday to attend the
meeting of tho Desert Land boafd.
In connection with the proposed op
ening of the Donham Falls segrega
tion, and to be present in Portland
on Saturday to confer with repre
sentatives of tho Northwest Tour
ists' association in regard to insur
ing that tho proper amount of pub
licity Is guaranteed Dend In the ex
penditure of the $40,000 appropri
ated by tho last legislature for ad
