PORTLAND SUGAR DROPS
30 CENTS PER SACK
PORTLAND. Ore., May 2. Local
wholesale grocei-y firms have an
nounced a decline of thirty cents a
sack in sugar prices. The drop brings
(he best cane granulated grades down
to $(i.30 with beet at lli.10 a sack
and sets a new level for the year.
Wenkncss In raw sugar In the
east and on the coast is largely re
sponsible for the decline here. Port
land jobbers decided to lower this
mnrket upon receipt of advices of a
iwcniy per cent reduction In the re
finery lists at San Francisco.
The decline Is rather drastic, com
ing right In the face of the canning
season nnd local dealers do not look
lor anv further declines.

Sample of Pavement Between McMinnville and Sheridan
The State Highway Commission has just let two con
tracts; one for reconstructing 11 miles of highway be
tween McMinnville and Sheridan, a portion of which is
shown above, at a cost of more than $96,000.00 and an
other for 10 miles of the Columbia River Highway between
Svenson and Astoria at a cost of more than $261,000.00.
Their portable plants are constantly repairing the
highways at great cost and the Highway Engineer has
estimated that it will cost the Commission $50,000.00 to
patch and repair the Pacific Highway between Salem and
Oregon City. 1
The heavy commercial freight Trucks and Motor
Busses have done the greater part of this damage within
the past two years.
The taxpayers and private car owners pay at least
95 cents out of every dollar of this bill.
Refcirimdum petitions are being) circulated by thes
Motor Bus and Freight Truck Associations to submit the
"Bus and Truck Bill" passed at the last session of the
Legislature for vote by the people in November, 1926.
The effective date unless referred is May 28, 1925. By
these referending petitions operators of commercial
Busses and Trucks hope to put off for 18 months the date
when they must start paying for at least a portion of the
damage they are doing to the roads.
This Bus and Truck measure should not be held up to
permit the commercial operators to escape payment of a
fair part of the cost of repairing the road destruction done
by their operations.
