D U N Nf BllLS ON BALLOT RETARDING Orrron motorists ami taxpayers will be interested in Hie ict that the so-called $:i ami measures, which would have affected the state highway program, will not appear on the November ballot, as the necessary signatures to Initia tive petitions were not filed at Salem. The public mind has become con fused thrnmi exlenaive prelimi nary discussion in the state press of these bills and it should be pointed out. as a matter of inter est of the highest importance, that the only measures relating to mo tor vehicle licenses and a tax on gasoline which will have a place on the ballot are those initiated by Joe Dunne of Portland. Mr. Dunne's license hill provides for a general reduction in license lees of approximately 50 per cen'. If this bill should be approved by the people In November, the state highway fund will lose about OtMt.ooi). Tho other initiative meas ure would increase the gasoline tav from It to 5 cents per gallon. If both blls should pas. the state's income, from the gaa tax would he increased about $1,200,000, leaving tho highway department with a no,t loss of nearly S.ooo.ooo. Should the. people approve the deereaHe-1 license fees set up in tho Dunne bill and reject the increased gas tax of his other hill, the net loss to the highway fund would amount to a sum equivalent to that now avail able for new construction und hot leimonts. , Cnder this threatening Hluation, the highway commission has been forced to call a halt in lis contemplated program for next year and to hold in abeyance any expenditure other than mainte nance and the mandntory pay ments of principal and interest on road bonds. The above neuron are baaed on careful unci conservative estimates of state revenues relating to the highway fund, which was set up by the people and the legislature to accomplish a definite program of state road construction. This pro gram is far from completion at thi; time. State Architect Officials, Guests of of Frank C.
