PROFESSOR SGHftTZ, FOUNDER OF BEZALEL, BRINGS ART OF JERUSALEM TO AMERICA TESREAU LIKELY FINE QUALITY OF TO BOWLBY 1 OUTLAWS GOLD HAY GRANITE IN FEDERAL LEAGUE U Lack of Reed roads In Oregon I In no sciiHo duo to lack of materials, declared Mnjor II. L, Uowlby, stato highway engineer. In nn address on tho rond situation which ho delivered Friday before tho Factories Promo tion congress at Corvnllls. "It can be BtatcJ at tho outset,' ho said, "that It Is a wlso policy to uso whenever possible tho materials that are found locally that Is, In tho development of tho roads of Oregon no one will question the advisability of making use, where It Is possible to do so, ot the Indigenous road mater ials of the state. Oregon Is well supplied with rock suitable for tho construction of first rlass, modern hard-surfaced roads. They are xerv fully described In tho bulletin Issued by tho Oregon Agricultural college entitled, 'Itoad Materials In the Wil lamette Valley by Professor Henry M Parks. "In tho Rogue river valley Is found a wonderful deposit of granite. So far as I havo been able to learn, this Is the only extensive deposit of this material in this state. In the con struction of permanent roads in Jack son county, we are planning on using this deposit of granite, in building the hard-surfaced pavement that will bo constructed under tho recent bond Is suo amounting to $500,000. riant Being Built "A Portland cement plant is now being constructed In Jackson county near tho town ot Gold Hill. This pant will havo a capacity of 1000 barrels of Portland cement por day. Wo havo mado arrangements to so euro 50,000 barrels of tho first output of this plant, for uso in paving tho Pacific highway in that county. It is expected that this plant will be in operation Juno 1, 1914. So far, all Portland cement used in this stato has come from other states. "By far tho greatei part of hard urtaccd pavement in this stato Is made with a btlumlnous binder. Tho asphalt comes from California, and we are very fortunate in being so closely situated to tho extensive oil fields from which asphalt is porduced. In many parts of the United States hard-surfaced roads and pavements are constructed with tho vitrified brick for a wearing surface. Thoro Is no placo at present in Oregon where a vitrified brick Is made suit able for paving purposes. I havo taken the matter up at different times with tho Denny-Renton Brick com pany of Seattle, and havo been as sured that no expense has been spared in trying to locate suitable clay de posits In both Oregon and California, from which a first-class xitrlficd brick can bo manufactured. The ob jection to using vitrified brick In Oregon Is the high freight cost from tho plants whero it is manufactured In adjoining states. Gravel Is Available "Gravel is well distributed over tho western part of Oregon. Good con crete sand, however, Is not often found. In almost every part of west cm Oregon, road materials that are suitable to one form or another of hard-surfaced pavements can lo found. "Tho greatest difficulty encount ered Is the matter ot bow money should bo raised for the construction of theso Imropovd roads. During tho past 10 years approximately $18 000 000 has been expended in Oregon on roads and bridges. It this amount ot money wcro available at this tlmo, n very otenslvo system of roads could bo constructed with It. I do not claim that the greater part ot this money hus been wasted or thrown away. Naturally, a great deal ot money msut bo upont each year to keop tho elating roads passable and to open up outlets for new territory that Is getting settled up. Tho waste of money has been due In most cases to what might be called temporary road construction, and In soma cases to semi-permanent road construction. With tho automobile used by all classes as we find it today, it U Im possible to build a macadam or gravel road that will not bo kicked to pieces, Some artificial binder must be used in constructing tho wearing surfaco of tho road. Thero are only two such binders, Portland cement and tar or asphalt." lim W&&& 1Sh MHIM ilml 9kti&H9lflHC BlIIIDB a beautiful mantilla r i JiMt a,- Mr Nathan Straus hi left here for Palestine to glte Impetus i !
