The recommendation of Vie high
way commlaslon In moving the con
atructlon work for the winter from
the Neal Creek section at the top
of the Slsklyous to that aectlon north
of Ashland was prompted by the
knowledge that aulflcllent funds
would not be available to complete
the entire Job on the top of the
mountains In the Immediate future,
and It waa 'felt that tlm n.rii.ni.t.
aectlon between Ashland and Talent
can be completed with the funda
available and can be In use; whereas
any construction done in th ni
Creek district would not be useable

SISKIYOU BAY

ADDITIONAL DELAY

Other Major Construction
Projects to Suffer, Due to
Lack of Money Is Hint
To Finish Present Jobs
PORTLAND, Dec. 31 OP) The
Journal said today that "decision at
the atate highway commission not to
go ahead with the ia.000.000 recon
struction of the Siskiyou Mountala
section of the Psclfle highway may
b. looked on as the forerunner of
postponement of other msjor con
struction In contemplation, such as
the Wilson River road, the Wolf
Creek road and the Santlam road, to
a time when the financial sky ha
cleared."'
There are indications." the article
continued, "that the highway com.
mission Is about to make announce
ment that In view of certain reduc
tion in revenue by reducing motor
vehicle license fees and the general
demand for lightening of the tax
bur;n, the time haa come to halt
major construction until revenue ar
replenished from sources not yet ap
parent." To FliiNh Present John.
The papr said available funda will
be used In completing work now un
der way and in closing gapa in roads
now near completion, and adda:
"For some time Chairman Scott
haa Indicated this should be the pol
icy of the commission, but the other
two members have not always been
in accord with him. it was
finally decided that Scott should go
to Jackson county and discuss with
the comity court and other local n
terests the advisability of erasing the
Siskiyou project from the program.
...
"It waa represented by Scott to trse
Jackson county people that should
the motor vehicle license fee be re
duced by the legislature to 9 ther
would be loas of 3,3S0.000 In high
way revenue, making it Impossible to
undertske construction on a large
scale unless the reduced revenue we
replenished from new source. The
reduced fee, he ssld, would leave th
eommlaalon about S750.0O0 short in
meeting lta debt service, Its main
tenance charges and overhead ex
pense. There would be no money to
match federal aid."
Officials Willing.
After Scott had revealed the finan
cial poaltlon of the department, it I
said, representative of Jackson coun
ty announced their willingness to
forego the Siskiyou project at thl
time.
"A compensation." th atory con
tinued, "It was decided to stralghtea
out crooked section of highway be
tween Ashland and Talent, at an esti
mated cost of 8100.000 and to re
build the Wlnaton bridge over th
Umpqua, south of Roseburg,"
The paper states that should th
oommlssln decide to carry out th
policy Indicated "fairness would seem
to require" postponement of con
struction of the Wllsor River high
way at 13,000,000; the Wolf Creek or
short road to the sea at 84,000.000;
the Klamath highway at 8800,000,
and the Santlam highway at 1,
000,000. The conclusion that postponement,
of these projects la Imminent 1
drawn from the action of the com
mission In deciding not to go ahead
