Department Store Oregon Should Meet California In Improvement Of Highway 99 Argues Editor Of Siskiyou News Editor's note: The accent on northern California road lnv provement will be on Highway 99, with plans for making It u fur better road than Highway 97, which leaves California near Dorrij, and continuing into Ore gon via Klamath Falls, accord' ing to William G. Bailey, man aging editor of the Siskiyou Daily News, of Vreka, Calif. In view of the California plans lor Highway 99, Editor Bailey points out that Oregon would be 111 advised to designate a road through Klamath Falls as its primary route instead of tieing its Highway 99 in with Califor nia construction toward Ashland and Medford. His argument fol lows in full). Economic forces of fat reaching effect wilt be In play Wednesday at the meeting of the Pacific Highway Associa; tloa in Medford. While ostensibly the meeting will consider only the problems of presenting the merits of High way 99 against those of High way 97 In Oregon state road building, the implications are much deeper. Yreka and western Siskiyou county have a vital stake in the question and will be represented at the Medford meeting. This first skirmish between conflicting aspirations of towns along the two routes between Weed and Eugene is centered in the Oregon State Highway Com mission. The commission must designate as that state's main inter-regional highway through southern Oregon either the road from Eugene down through Med ford and Ashland (99) or the cutoff route from Eugene through Klamath Falls and into California near Dorris (97). That both of theie routes require "good" highways to serve the economic Interests of their territories Is not argued. That is obvious. Kernel of the nut in the pres ent instance is that whichever route the Oregon commission de signates as its "main" inter-regional road will have a continu ing edge over the other in future Oregon road building appropria tions. This In turn may have a bear ing on the postwar Federal super-highway routing now plan ned roughly along the lines of Highway 99. The Federal road, in turn, Is expected to mean a great deal to communities con tiguous to Us right-of-way. Thus the far reaching eco nomic aspects of this Medford conference Wednesday which will have as Its chief bugaboo the fact that the Klamath Falls boys are sitting pretty with one of their number seated as a mem ber of the present Oregon high way commission. . Siskiyou county will be able to present some elements of fact In Medford that should have weight in swinging the Oregon decision toward the Eugene Medford Ashland Yreka route. Highway 99 from Weed to the Oregon line via Yreka and Hilt has been more or less neg lected for several years now be cause the last big State expendi tures in this county were made on Route 97 from Weed via Dor ris into Oregon near Klamath Falls. The latter road now is considered generally as devel oped sufficiently to serve needs of that area for several years to come. Accent on California plans now Is on 99, with blueprints and plans completed for making it a far better road than is 97, the more recently completed stretch. As pointed out in this column recently, rights-of-way already have been acquired from the bor der checking station at Hilt to the Klamath river at Lowe's Camp. It provides for practically a four-lane, straight, high speed route. Similar right-of-way has been acquired from Weed southward to Mount Shasta, through this stretch will serve both 99 and 97, which fork at the north edge of Weed. In the wind at Sacramento ere further plans for similar improvement of 99 on the stretch from north of Yreka Into the long straightaway north of Gazelle. What this means is that the central highway in Siskiyop county from Weed via Yreka, Hornbrook and Hilt, is slated for No. 1 designation and priority construction as a super-highway route. The land has been ac quired, blueprints drawn, and construction awaits only release of men and materials. It would seem silly for the State of Oregon to designate a road through Klamath Falls as its primary route instead of tie ing it in with California con struction toward Ashland and Medford. State teamwork Is required for both Oregon end California to realise the greatest benefits from money spent on highway construction. Director Bouck Joining Pruitt in Music Store Sidney H.
