BOND ISSUE FOR
Reconstruction Between
Grants Pass. Roseburg Is
Needed But Bond Load
. Much Too Heavy, View
SALEM, Ore., rob. 8. (AP) Gov
ernor Martin Is "unalterably" oppos
cd to the suggestion of State Senator
ChlnnoelE of Josephine county that
reconstruction of the Pacific highway
between Grants Pass and Roseburg
be financed by a S7.000.000 bond la-
sue, the Capital Journal said today.
The paper quoted the governor as
follows:
"I appreciate the need for Improve
ment of this Important ecctlon of
highway and am fully in sympathy
with Senator Chinnock and the offi
cials of the Pacific Highway a Ni
dation In then efforts to secure a
road adequate to meet the demands
placed upon It, but I cannot consent
to the aale of more state bonds for
any purpose except In cases of ex
treme emergency.
Bond Load Too Heavy
"Oregon has been bonded for this
purpose and that until the burden
has become so heavy as to be prac
tically unbearable.
"During my campaign for election
7 stated that, If elected, one of my
objectives would be to eliminate the
bonded debt of the highway depart
ment and put road building In Ore
gon on a pay as-you -go baals.
"I have not changed my mind, nor
my objective.
'If we are ever to put road build
lng and maintenance on a business
but la we must adopt and stay with a
policy confining expenditures to actual
revenues and eliminate heavy Interest
charges. Even now our Interest bill
on state highway bonds Is annually
more than 60 per cent oi the amount
of principal requirements.
"We cannot afford to pay twice for
the roads we construct.
Sees Interference
Governor Martin also deprecated
what be said waa a hint of legis
lative Interference in the affairs of
the highway department contained
In the announcement of Senator
Chlnnock and the voluntary endorse
ment of the bonding plan given by
Senator Walter Fisher of Douglas
county.
'The success of the highway ad
ministration In Oregon has-been due
to the absence of politics In the af
fairs of the commission," he said.
"To permit legislative Interference In
the administrative functions of the
commission would be to Invite log
rolling and lobbying.
"1 have been over this piece of
road many times and fully agree
that it should be modernlred, But
I feel that we would be establishing
an unsound and dangerous prece
dent to finance Improvement through
a bond Issue."
GRANTS PASS, Feb. 8. (AP)
While Senator James T, Chlnnock.
who proposed a 97,000,000 bond Issue
for Improvement of the Pactflo high
way and C. H. Demsrny, president of
the Oregon Pacific Highway associa
tion, declined to comment i on Gov
ernor Martin's opposition today, one
apparent reaction waa noted here.
It waa satisfaction with Governor
Martin's statement agreeing with the
need for Improvement of the high
way. With the governor' support,
state highway commission surveys
already made, and general agreement
of cities slong the highway. It was
believed a forward step has been
made even If the bond Issue proposal
Is rejected.
No comment waa made concerning
further support for the bond Issue,
proposed to follow the same program
as the bonds voted by the state last
year for the coast highway, when
3.000,000 wna provided for construc
tion of bridges.

TO SEEK MASTERS
A striking and touching story on
that old theme, the faithfulness of
the canine race, la being told today
by Mrs. Elizabeth Ounderson of 344
South Central avenue. Just after
Christmas, Mr. and Mrs. Arthur
Cheney, 34 Highlend drive, drove to
Long Beach. Cal., taking their year-and-a-half-old
purebred Chow dog
"Teddy" with them. Shortly after
their arrival there the Cheney car
waa Involved In a slight craah, the
dog being thrown out, and disap
peared. Yesterday, Lee Baker of Med ford
saw the dog In the southwest part
of the city, footsore, travel-weary and
frightened. The animal had Just
completed a solo hike from Long
Beach to Medford, a tramp of approx
imately BOO ml lea, to rejoin hla own
ers, only to find that they were not
at their home, being still in Long
Beach.
The faithful little Ohow had ap
parently stayed In Long Beach for
some time, in hopes of finding the
Cheneys. After falling to do so, he
started north, but was still so con-
fuaed yesterday that Baker could not
approach him, and l.e Is still at large
In the city.
Mrs. Gunderaon Is anxious to find
the dog, and keep him until the
Cheneys return, so that he won't have
to reverse his long trek. If snyone
the chunky red Chow In the city,
H will be appreciated by Mrs. Oun
derson If they will get li touch with
her st her home, or by calling 303-Y.

gon supreme court affirmed the
award of $1,040 to, Emms Wlnane
for damages to her residential
propery near Medford, which had
been used as a roadhouse by the

found In the lower cotirt entering

the actual damages.
The appeal was made by the two
leasees from the Judgment of Cir
cuit Judge H. D. Norton of Jack
