sesion of the Oregon suto hUhwiv
commission here today, probably tnc
laat one of the present trio member
ship, waa confronted with three mJT
issues in addition to the openlnjr of
bids on a quarter million a-AUra rostf
work.
The chief problem which deferred
action on policy was the uncertainty
of the personnel of the ccimtwion.
whether or not only one or two mem
bers would be replaced sn1 ihe T j
fussl of the present members o cop -mit
the new organization. j
Initiation of steps to tnn?ter the

of the Columbia River hlshwiy froii

was started after a lengthy confer
ence. Wallowa lielecatlon Present.
A delegation from Wallowa county,
which arrived here in a .special pas
senger car to urge Oregon's com
pletion of its share of the Blue
Mountain highway, was tho third ma
jor subject before Chairman Leslie
M, Scott and Commissioners Onxl
Wnshburne and Ed Aldrirh.
The term of Chairman fV-ott ex
pires next Monday and he .tited to
day he knew nothing of the gov
ernor's plans and refused to mae
any comment on his own plans. It
was felt here, however, that Scott
would continue on the remission
without reappointment for a time- t
leat, although there were report
Henry F. Cabell of PortUmt ras be
ina unced to represent the third dis
trict on the commission. I
Carl Washbume announced he
would retire from the commlwlon as
soon as hlB successor was appointed.
He declared he wished to relgn last
fall but Governor Meier urged him
to remain until the new administra
tion. He said he was anxious to be
relieved of his duties In order to de
vote all his time to his Eugene mer
cantile business.

Names of successors to Wsshburr-e
have been suggested to ihe governor,
including Bran Reames of Medford.
A. C. Maratcrs of Roseburg, Sam Gar

anon, and A. Rennie. a meniber of
the legislature from Benton county.
An appointment from the first dis
trict was expected within the next
few days. Waahburne'a term do
not expire until next year.
Fear of possibly endangering the
contract for the construction of the
bridges on the Coast highway result
ed in careful steps being taken to
urge upon the federal government
the proposal to make a loan of $4.
300.000 on the Columbia W.Vr.r high
way at Bonneville. The state legis
lature gave the commission author
ity to issue general obligation bonds
to pay the federal loan on tbe bridges
In order to make the spans toll-free.
The procedure decided upon was to
urge the federal PWA authorities to
amend the present bridge loan and
grant contract as follows;
1. The state be reuired ro issue
general obligation bonds to pay tre
principal and interest on the 14.300. -
000 loan. The government hd grant
ed a aum of 11.400.000 additional for
the bridges.
3. That the government provide
the same loan to the Plate for the
Troutdale-Cescade Locks se'ion of
the Columbia River highway The.
coat of the complete project was esti
mated at about M .600 .000.
That the present brieve con
tract be continued until tnc new ne
gotiations were completed. ;f th-v
meet with federal appro? il.
4. That the governmc-nt old the
bridge bonds now bein iuod and
not sell them until the nrpo-aatior.s
were completed.

amended contract would be iiimttt.d

nothing. They have been dispossessed
and scattered. Thousands of them
own hardly more than the shirts on

enter a collective farm where they
may enjoy a limited measure of pros
