Seymour Jones, state market agsnt,
in his weekly market report issued
under date of July 27 states that the
latest crop estimates place the wheat
yield of Oregon at about 28,000,000
bushels and of the three states of
Oregon, Washington and Idaho at
100,000,000 bushels. The estimate
for all of North America is 1,190,-
000,000 which is 58,000,000 bushels
less than the yield of 1926. For
Europe, except Russia, 1,277,000,000
bushels, against 1,211,000,000 last
year; in North Africa 88,000,000
against 90,000,000 in 1926, and in
Asia 368,000,000, against 369,000,-
000 last year. • „
The figures above stated should in
dicate that wheat prices will advance
as soon as the selling pressure caused
by early marketing by Pacific coast
farmers has reached its limits.

At the regular quarterly meeting
of the board of directors, the Oregon
State Motor association took a strong
stand against any change in the
license fee system until such time
as the state highway program is fin
ished and the obligations of out
standing bonds is met.
The state motor association went
on record as having the betterment
of existing highways so as to keep
pace with the increased traffic de-
tnand and the removal of safety
hazards so as to make the use''of
the highways safer.
The financial condition of the
state is in a sound condition so far
as highway construction is concerned
and certain portions of the state have
voted bonds, paid license fees and
gas tax for many years on the basis
that the highway program, as out
lined originally, would be completed.
Any change in the financial plan
would jeopardize the fulfillment of
that promise and would react against
the whole highway program. The
present license fee system, while not
perfect, has accomplished its purpose.
A fine system oF highways has been
constructed and the bonds are slowly
but surely being retired. Not only
that, but a small amount is available
each year to match government
money and so federal aid to the ex
tent of 1 ^4 million dollars \is spent
on Oregon rdads each year.
Why change this satisfactory con
dition for an unknown quantity?
Things are progressing satisfactorily
along the lines planned when the bond
issue was voted by the people and
we are pledged to this plan until the
highway program is completed and
bonds retired.
