The bloo seeking more federal Aid
highway funds for Portland and
Multnomah county has gone "mili
tant" and Is clamolrng for a federal
Investigation of the highway com
mission's allotment of the fund. -
That was the group's answer to
ha commission's emphatic "no" to
the group's demands for mors funds.
Ths city-county committee lsst
sight Instructed a sub-commltt to
be "militant" In making direct ap
peal to Thomas H. McDonald, chief
of the United States bureau of roads,
for an investigation.
Ths highway commission declared
yesterday that a number of counties
would have to be skimped If more
funds were given Multnomah county.
Oeorge L. Rausch, chairman of the
city-county committee, declared the
plea for Investigation will be baaed
en the tenet that about 17 per cent
of Oregon's share of ths fund was
allocited to Multnomah county, which
encompasses nesrly 80 per cent of
the state's unemployed.
PORTLAND, Aug. 18. (AP) The
Oregon highway commission today
spoils a final "no" In reply to a re
quest of Portland and Multnomah
.county that this district be given a
larger allocation of federal aid high
way funds than the commission hsd
allowed.
The Portland area has been allotted
563.000. The city-county relief com
mittee asked an additional 700,000.
The commission answered with an un
V mlstakable negative answer and with
the observation that "contention will
delay plans and contracts and cause
loss of fair weather employment."
Ths commission explained that 11
ths Multnomah county committee's
request was granted, the money would
have to be taken from projects In 11
other counties Clatsop. Columbia,
Tillamook. Washington, Yamhill. Lin
coln, Polk, Marlon, Benton, Linn and
Clackamas.
"The needa of employment and of
highway Improvement are pressing in
all parta of Oregon," the commission
recited. "Should the highway com
mission neglect the state-wide call for
a fair distribution, bitterness and
strife would be engendered, Portland
would ba accused of selfish designs
and the highway commission would
be charged with spineless disregard of
duty, or worse."

Thomas P. Henry, president of the
American Automobile association,
said today a survey of stat laws on
drunken driving had disclosed a
"hodgepodge with some wholly In
adequate and others unduly severe.
'The AAA study disclosed that In
many statea It Is possible for a mot
orist convicted of driving while drunk
to escape with a fine of as little as
one cent or one day In Jail.
'We may well expect drastic pro
posals unless this situation Is han
dled Intelligently and firmly," Henry
commented.
He suggested as a "reasonable
standard" for treatment of this kind
of offense the uniform motor vehicle
code recently .amended by the fourth
national conference on street and
highway safety.
This would prescribe a fine of not
lesa than 9100 nor more than $1,000.
or a Jail sentence of not less than
10 days and not more than one year,
or both, for first offenders.
For second offenses. It would pro
vide a minimum mandatory Jail sen
tence of 00 days, with an additional
fine In the discretion of the court.

Japan.
This morning the biggest court
room in Tokyo waa crowded and the
corridors bulging with women of all
ages who had listened to the enchant
ing, music of Rando Rukudo, 33, a
flute player. The general complaint
of the women waa that ha first
charmed their musical souls and then
he charmed their purses and of
course threw tn ft promise or two to
marry, which he promptly forgot.
One sweet young thing of twenty
two mildly attempted to commit sui
cide when she heard that her Lo
thario had become "engaged" to ft
movie queen; a wealthy widow wanted
her money back; and another matron
of, Indeterminate years wanted to give
musical Rando the choice of going to
Jail for good or marry her.
The trial will continue throughout
the week until all the complaints have
been heard. The betting right now
stands ten to one that Rando will be
out of circulation for a year or two.
But think of all the new plecea he
can learn while a guest of the chief
of police of Tokyo!

which means that every American
