APRIL 6, 1917, you went into partnership with several million American fighters. You wanted protection for your family, your income and the privileges you deemed necessary to proper living. Several thousand miles away an army of arrogant, outlaw millions had begun a campaign of ruthless world conquest accompanied by crimes against women, children and property. This horror was striding toward ypnr home. The American fighters agreed to receive training brave the submarines and fight this menace which had taken on forms more terrible than history recorded. As jour part of this partnership you were to remain at home, do your part in financing them, see that their families had financial assistance and pay each $30 a month. You telt that you had a good bargain. They fought, died and won. They fulfilled their part of the contract without complaint. Today, two years after the signing of that agree ment you are asked to carry out your part of the bargain by investing in the Victory Libert v Loan.

(Prepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) Although $14,530,000 -was available for exnenditure on the nost roads from I the federal aid road act, only $425,445 was paid from federal funds In the highwuy construction season of 1918 on all projects. The reason for this, according to the annual report of the secretary of agriculture, was the steps taken to conserve money, labor, trans portation and materials In highway work during the war, and at the same time to facilitate really essential high way projects. In connection with the federal aid road work a letter was addressed to each state highway department asking that a program of federal aid con- struction be submitted at the earliest ! possible date, In which would be in- : eluded only those projects which the state highway departments considered vitally necessary to the transportation ; facilities of the country. j At the request of the capital issues committee, engineers of the depart ment were made available for inspect ing and reporting upon proposed high way and irrigation and drainage bond Issues. Inspections were made of 181 . separate projects, involving total bond ! issues of ifSO.Ol 2,;;9G. An arrangement ! was made with the fuel administru- tion whereby highways of special im- I portance should receive enough bitu- I miuuu.-i material to provide for adu- i qtiate maintenance, and where neces- sary to permit construction and re- l construction. From May 13, 1018. j when the co-operation became actively j effective, until the close of the fiscal year, 2,2.')5 applications, calling for 75,0X),000 gallons of bituminous mate rial, were received from states, coun ties and municipalities. Of this amount approval was given and permits were issued for 58,000,000 gallons. In order to co-ordinate the activities of various government agencies, so far as they relate to highways; better to conserve materials, transportation, money and labor ; to eliminate delays and uncertainties, and to provide posi tive assistance in currying on vitally effective highway work, the secretary requested each of the government de partments and administrations Inter Us v . -s N Price $1620 at Heppner Will Arrive About May 1 0th or 1 1 th After careful consideration and observation of the service and economy furnish ed by the various cars used in this vicinity we have taken over the Reo Line of pleasure cars and trucks.
