While the Sherman Highway is a part of a road that runs from the Mexican to tho Canadian border it is separ- ^hte in itself. It doe« lie in two countie« and cooperation Iwtween those countie« in getting improvement to tho road ha« not been in evidence. Wa«co county people in the north end ju«t don’t do anything about the road. Consolidation of «entiment in favor of the highway by an association devoted solely to Improvement of the road will bring together the people of southern Wasco county and of Sherman county. As a unit they may be able to do something that each group working alone has not been able to do. _ • There has been little work done on this road since the late twenties when the Grass Valley-DeMoss section was rebuilt except for maintenance. Other roads have been improved in that time and new roads haveheen started, built and finished. The competing highway that runs from Lakeview to Burns to Pendleton and on north has been built, the O.I.N. road has been sur veyed and still this route, the one marked as a federal road by federal engineers has not received enough work to keep it in proper shape for travel. Heavy trucks pound it during the winter when other routes are closed and tho work is done on tho other routes when spring comes. The Sherman highway is restricted from getting as much traffic as it normally should because of th« few mile« of gravel at the «outh end. That condition should ba remedied immediately. . If the people who live along tho road do not take a personnel and active interest in its welfare they canndt expect tha highway commission to take much interest eith er It is up to us! Neither is the now association formed to combat other organisations, elected or otherwise,_but is deairou« oi of co-opcraung cooperating with interested in desirous wiui every eveiy group uimwnvvu ... the development of the Sherman Highway and the country that lies along it. LET THEM ALONE The Dalle« Chronicle, aided and abetted to tome extent by the Oregonian, ia trying to induce congreaa to make an appropriation for a act of new buildings at Celilo to house the Indians who come to the falls to fish. The Chronicle protests that the preaent shacks are both odorous and unhealthy, Perhape our contemporary in the river town ia mia. taking an eathetic sente for a knowledge of hygiene. No one will deny that during the aalmon drying time the habitations perched on tho rocks above the fall« do give off an odor that assails tho nostrils with something of a a hock. But bad amelia are not neceaaarily unhealthy. Before the white man took thia country away from the Indiana the native« died in battle or from the effects of old age. Now, aince the “anperior” white (civilisation has been b rought to the Indiana they can wallow in drink, die from a multitude of infectioua diseases and be reformed in living practise« every few year«. We venture the statement that few disease germs are bred in the amoky and well ventilated ahacka of the Indiana compared to the apota in the white man'a citiea where they congregate. The Indian may amell to high heaven but he cannot be accueed of being unhealthy if left to hi« own living standard«. If he want« to live in a shack, let him.
