There is the gineer on all state highway work and on all county highway work done un der state supervision, so that expen ditures may be classified for purposes of comparison. Engineer to act in advisory capa- procedure code, prescribing method j clty tJ counties upon request ofcoun- 16.09 19.90 25.94 2.98 11.34 7.44 (Continued on page seven.) tjt opening, laying out and vacat ing highways, which will end the confusion attending the three meth ods at present prevailing, which have been consolidated and revised into a practical system. The county code, another of these measures, has to do with the expen ditures of county funds and admin istration of county road work. The supervisor system is done away with and road building centralized under a road master. The state highway code provides procedure for construction of hard- surfaced highways and for co-opera tion of county and state in state highways. It creates a non-salaried slate highway commission of three, one member from each congressional district, severs the state highway en gineer's department from the state engineer's office and provides fo'r the appointment of a highway en-neer. The act to regulate motor vehicles the present motor vehicle license tax es and donates the entire proceeds to state highway work, under the sup ervlsion'of the state highway com mission. It will give upwards of $300,000 a year for road work. The Bean-Barrett bonding act authorizes the issuance, in event re venues from established sources are not sufficient to meet allotments of government road funds of bonds in an amount equivalent to the defleieiv cy, and insures expenditure in Ore- gon of the entire government allot ment for post roads and forest roads and an equal sum of Btate money as is required by the federal act. The amount of bonds authorized Is $1,- 800,000. The 86,000,000 bonding act lays out definite system of state high way and post roads. State high ways are to be paved, hard-surfaced under the provisions of this act. The bond issue proposed is a capitaliza tion of the proceeds for the next 25 years of the quarter-mill road levy that has existed for several years and the increased motor taxes. These revenues on the basis of the present tax valuation and the existing num ber of automobiles in Oregon, will amortize not only the 86,000,000, but the full limit of bonds authorized un der the Bean-Barrett act. In other words, issuance of the full amount of bonds authorized by the Bean Barrett act do not mean any increase in taxation. The $6,000,000 pro posal is to be submitted to vote of the people at a special election on June 4. Of indirect bearing on the road program is a reduction of the gravity test for gasoline heretofore estab lished by law. Government investi gation has shown the test to be of no value, but it has made gasoline one cent a gallon dearer in Oregon. Eli mination will give Oregon consumers gasoline at the same price as con sumers in other states pay. The sav ing will just about offset the increase in automobile license taxes in the course of a year STATE ROAD CODE.
