Bor Road Insld Rim '
A fund of one million dollar ha
bean made available for the con
etructlon of a new road around the
rim of Crater Lake. During 1031
It waa built from the publlo camp
ground to the Diamond Lake road;
In 1933 It will be extended to The
Wine Olaaa and In 1933 to Kerr
Notch. In 1934 It la propoaed to
complete It and the educational ad
Tl.ory board aeem to favor con
tructlon from Kerr Notch down
Band crwk to Lost creek, then up
to Sun Notch, down to park head
quarter and up to the rim.
To thl I am bitterly opposed and
auggcet the following plan: Com'
menoa conatructlon at the low point
Immediately weat of Oarfleld Peak,
thence Inilda the rim to the base
of Kerr Notch, at the water's edge,
four mile distant, Instead of 13 aa
at present, on a four per cent maxi
mum grade instead of ten. Then
bore a tunnel on approximately five
per cent grade, to the rim road,
about half a mile distant, using all
debris to fill In shallow water for
turning places, parking and boat
houses. With such a road In op
eration, Instead of one per cent of
visitor going to th water there
will be 100 per cent.
The objection made to this road la
that It will mar the landscape. Well,
o whom does the landscape belong?
Every visitor Is equally Interested
with vsry other American cltleen In
thl park and shall they be deprived
of Its use by a few men clothed
with a little brief authority and
possessed of a dainty theory?
When early road were being built,
men who could not comprehend
present and future need, wasted
MOO.000 of publlo money on auch
roads, all of which had to be re
built. Are we to bsve a repetition
of this and ahall men of pink the
orle be permitted to enforce them,
thus eliminating utility with Idle
dreams?

CHICAOO, May 34 (AP) Twelve
economists of the University of Chi

temporary fiscal Inflation would help
business. .
They urged a "five year plan" for
revival of business upon congress
yesterday, declaring that "automatic
adjustment In the economic situa
tion have already proceeded to the
stage where Inflationary expendl
turea would b handsomely reward
ed tn greater production, larger em
ployment and higher tax revenue.'
"For th ensuing five years," they
said, "aU federal expenditure should
be covered by tax revenues. To
mlntmlz th total neccuary outlay,
outlaya should be genarou now:
parsimonious Inflation 1 an Illusory
economy."

NEW SHREDDED
BISCUIT TOASTED
ON BOTH SIDES
Extra Crispness Just One o?
Many Improvements Devel
oped for Kellogg's WHOLE
WHEAT Biscuit
In line with Its policy of constan1
improvement, the Kellogg Companj
some time aeo introduced a npu
shredded whole wheat biscuit whicl I
oners several outstanding improve
ments in this type of cereal.
The new Kellogg biscuit is "pressure-cooked"
by a special process
that retains the full food value ol
the whole wheat. At the same tim
it produces a delicious mellow fla
vor and makes the biscuit very easj
to digest.
The biscuits are also much ertsnei
and crunchier, for they are toastec
on both top and bottom not jusl
ono side. Incidentally they are al6c
a new, convenient size to fit the ce.
real bowl without crumbling. Anc
you get 15 to the package instead
of the usual dozen.
As evidence of the hich fnoii
value of the Kellogg biscuit, the
Medical Arts Laboratory of Phila
delphia made a careful analysit
and certify every package. .
Grocers say Kelloee's WHOLE
wheat Biscuits are winning wide
favor. Healthful and delightful for
any meal. Especially trood with
fruits. Identify this improved food
product by the name. Kellotre-'a. and
