MEDFORD W7TTT. TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1931. PSGE THREE FEDERAL AID FOR Delegates Urge Action On Siskiyou Route Bottle Neck Named Hazard Unemployed Will Get Jobs The list of resolutions adopted yes terday In Grants Pass by delegates of Eugene, Roseburg, Ashland, Med ford, Grants Pass and Gold Bill, urg ing Improvement of the Pacific high way, ask that 60 per cent of the ex penditure be borne by. the' federal government, and the remaining 40 per cent by the state of Oregon. T.he resolutions read: Whereas, on October 5, 1931, pur suant to a call, a meeting was held In Grants Pass, Oregon, at which there were represented the chambers of commerce and city councils of Ashland, Med ford, Grants Pass, Rosa burg, Eugene, and Gold Hill, and the county courts of Douglas, Lane, Jackson and Josephine: Whereas It was the unanimous consensus at said meeting, that the Pacific highway Is one of the most Important highways In the west, be ing the only through artery of travel north and south on the Pacific coast running from Mexico through Cali fornia, Oregon, Washington to Brit ish Columbia, and the said artery of commerce, and all year round thru travel, and Whereas the delegates at said meeting assembled were further of the . unanimous opinion that, due to the fact that a large portion of said highway was constructed In the early stages of highway development In Oregon, and while adequate at the time It was built, nevertheless at the present, with the Increased speed and travel and modern conditions, said pacific highway Is not satisfactorily serving the public, and Whereas, largely due to pressure on the part of Oregonlans, the Califor nia state highway commission has completed the rebuilding, and relo cating of the Pacific highway In northern California, while the Pa cific highway In southern Oregon, and especially the Siskiyou portion thereof has remained undeveloped, and Whereas at present said Siskiyou portion of the Pacific highway con stitutes a bottle neck, which discour ages and Impedes travel over the same Into the state of Oregon. - Now therefore be It resolved by the delegates assembled that the Oregon state .highway commission be urged to Immediately commence work on relocating, straightening and realign ing the Pacific highway where need ed over its entire course, and further that said commission be urged to Immediately take action toward the early rebuilding, and relocating the Siskiyou portion of said highway, and the early elimination of the hazards to travel, which now exists. It Is further to be noted that the Pacific highway Is on the federal aid program, and that 60 percent of the expenditure thereon would be paid. by the federal government, the re malnlng 40 percent to be paid by the state of Oregon, and we under stand that a survey has been made from the California line over the Siskiyou mountains covering the problems herein Involved, making this section available for Immediate work', and we believe that the Siski you project could be well used for a partial solution of the unemploy ment question In the state of Oregon and because thereof we therefore urge your early consideration of this project.
