That due to this fact California attracts a great many tourists and these tourists spend in the state approximately $300,0110 annually. S pence Opposes Issue Mr. Spence's arguments in part were as follows: "Oregon is not as far behind in road building as is represented. The state spends a higher amount each year per capita than any other state in the The Life You've Heard . of But Never Lived-- The dizzy, swirling, ruinous White Light Life of New York.

But this money it spent most ly by the districts in the counties and not on expensive state highways or trunk roads. "We are all in favor of good roads the more of them the better. We are both fightinir for the same thing, hut where wr differ is in the manner of Aravsssug them ami as to what roads should he built first. "Wo propose to take the automobilr liceme tax. one-fourth mill tax and the federal aid money and put it di rectly on the roads. The advocates of the bond issue is to issue bonds and ise the aut.v tax and the one-fourth mill tax to pay the principal of the bonds and interest. c'nder our plan we will build SOD i lore miles of paved roads than ruder the bonding plan for the sanv amount of money raised. "lTnder the bonding system for every dollars worth el roads we gel we will pay $1.60. The only argument in favor of the bond issue is that they will get more roads immediately, but this bond issue will not be sufficient to complete nearly all the roads desig nated as hard surface roads, and this will only be the entering wedge for more bond issues. "Many people will be disappointed b- not setting the roads they expect ed. Don't Need Bonds 'We have provided under the auto license and millaue tax about $530.11 in addition to the federal aid of J5.tl which will amount to nearly $1,000.11 tl to be expended each year. "This should be enough to try out the new highway commission and tlien it thew make good. I, for one. will be rilling to vote the additional tax.

Truthful AdvertUmg "The road, designated at roads of irst importance paralted river, and rail road, duplicating the lines we al ready have. What we wafit it roads leading to market placet aad thipping points so the farmer can get produce to market at all times of the year, 1 cousidcr that the rail roads are trunk roads. "Califomiabonded itself for $18,000,- 000 and got a different finish from what was promised and hadafo uc another $15,000,(stM) to finish what had been started. The people of that state are now taxed to the limit. New York voted $s5a0OO.0O0 bonds to build a sys tem of highways and then had to vote another $50,000,000 to complete what they had started, and to rebuild some that were defective. "Our opponents claim that Multno mah county pays 40 per cent of the bill. Portland will get more benefit than any part of the state so wh shouldn't she contribute? "A bill passed the Senate in the last legislature proposing to place on the ballot, a choice of one and one-fourth milt tax levy or the bond issue. The one and one-fourth milft would raise $1.1X10.000 per year. Add to that the into license, the one-fourth mtll.to tax and the federal aid and this would give the highway commission ncarh tC.OlW.OOO a year to spend on the roa.U. Under thU plan the highway eommis sion would have more money to ex pend in five years than under the homi issue, and we would not be in debt one cent. This plan passed the Sen ate but was defeated in the House be cause, as we stated, it might defeat the bond issue. "Multnomah county paving interests are behind the bill, They took an im portant part in the legislative pro ceedings, but are keeping quiet just now.. "The highway commission is not .-or. posed of enough experienced mm in road buildin,:. and I think the fed eral aid. the auto license and the mili agc tax is enough for them to experi ment with."
