Roads Talks Draw!
County, Chamber
Men fo Klamath
A meeting to discuss possl
ble development of federal
roads was held in Klamath
Falls Friday night by city and
county officials and chambers
of commerce representatives
from Jackson county and oth
er sections of Oregon, Nevada
and northern California.
Attending from here were
County Judge Rodney Keat
ing and Commissioners Ches
ter Wendt and Ralph James;
Don McNeil, manager of the
Jackson County Chamber of
Commerce; Chester Hubbard,
chairman of the chamber's
highway committee; and May
nard Hadley, committee mem
ber.
Others at the session, who
presented their views of road
needs for their areas, came
from Lakeview, Grants Pass,
Cave Junction, Gold Beach,
Brookings, Yreka, Reno, Al
turas and Klamath Falls.
The meeting was called by
the highways and roads com
mittee of the Klamath cham
ber of commerce.
'Missing Link'
The majority attending ex
pressed interest in two miss
ing links," according to Mc
Neil.
He said most of the group
was favorable toward the fed
eral forest route proposed to
connect Klamath Falls and
Medford via Lake of the
Woods, and toward the pro
posed 37 miles of road which
would connect federal second
ary highways at Denio, Nev.,
and Adel, Ore., near Lake
view, to creat the "Winne-
mucca-to-the-Sea" route.
Another route suggested was
from ' Denio to Cedarville,
Calif., and then to Lakeview,
although McNeil said it pre
sented "many problems."
McNeil declared that the
successful meeting was the
first time a wide area has
been represented in discussion
f "basic segments which
must be completed" for road
service to join the various sec
tions.

During Warren Gill's formative years his parents
taught him the value of money. He worked in gas sta
tions as a "grease monkey", started to sea as an "ordi
nary seaman", became a 3rd mate, worked on a "rail
road section gang". These experiences have fortified
WARREN GILL with a true appreciation of supplying
equal opportunity for all who value money, and the
work that must be done to accumulate all the qualities
of successful leadership.
The giant strides made by WARREN GILL, from the
"lumber camps" and "railroad section gangs" to the
proud possessor of the Navy's top honor, THE NAVY
CROSS, for heroic service in combat, and as a leader of
the Republican forces in the State senate indicates the
aggressive action Oregon can expect from this proven
fighting leader.
This Oregon Heritage demands of WARREN GILL
leadership and service to his native state.
There is no substitute for actual
experience. WARREN GILL has
been a laborer, employer, attor
ney and leading legislator. None
of his opponents can match this'
background of experience that so well equips him for
Governor.
Senator Gill well understands the problems of the
worker and the businessman in a way not possible by
those who have not had experience or found the need to
create new industry.
Following his war service WARREN GILL rolled up
his sleeves and established a successful law firm in his
home town Lebanon, Oregon. Not satisfied with his
roll as a successful counselor for his many clients, he
organized the Lebanon Boat Works, creating payroll
for his home town. He is Secretary of the Willamette
Fibre and Chip Board Company Inc., and the Lebanor.
Industrial Development Corporation, that has and &
seeking more work and industry for Oregon. WARREN
GILL is a successful businessman and lawyer who un- '
derstands the need for industry and the importance of
creating more work for more people.

LET'S LOOK AT WARREN GILL'S
DYNAMIC LEGISLATIVE RECORD!
WARREN GILL has more experience in state government
than any other Republican candidate for Governor, served
ten years in the Oregon State Legislature, is Republican
Leader of the Senate. Committee appointments have in
cluded Roads and Highways, Veterans' affairs. Forestry and
Mining, Game, Alcoholic Control, Elections and Privileges,
and Financial Affairs. For the past four years Chairman of
the Senate Judiciary Committee.
WARREN GILL cast more than 37,000 votes affecting the
people of Oregon. Has been the author of important legis
lation, resisted government domination of local affairs.
Stated on Senate floor," abhor big government; the bigger it
get the smaller you and I become." His intelligence, hon
esty, integrity, popularity and courage are acknowledged by
members of both parties.- WARREN GILL SAYS WHAT
HE MEANS AND DOES WHAT HE SAYS HE WILL DO.
A test of his leadership and ability to get things done came
during the recent special session, when Republicans refused
to settle for a 6 tax cut proposed by the Democrat Gov
ernor. Thanks to Republican solidarity, the people received
an income tax reduction of over 20. One of Gill's colleagues
said of him, "The way Warren held us together, to fight as a
team during those trying days, was nothing short of spec
tacular!" As chairman of the powerful Judiciary Committee and
Republican leader in the Senate, WARREN GILL has excel
lent "on the job" experience and "know how" in the func
tions of state government, and knows what action is required
to get results for the people of Oregon.
The experience WARREN GILL had as an employee, in '
lumber camps, confirmed his belief that TIMBER IS A
CROP TO BE PLANTED AND HARVESTED thus pro
tecting our forests for future generations. His understand
ing of our forests problems was of great value in his service '
on the Forestry and Mining Committee of the Legislature.
As a member of committees of the house and senate, Sen
ator Gill had the opportunity of learning all sides of our
hydro-electric development programs and the effect on our
economy ... he fully appreciates the economic value to the
state of our power resources development and will do every
thing possible to encourage the rapid, orderly development
-of our power potential as well as to see that our fishing in
dustry, irrigation-reclamation developments are not retarded.
As a result of sponsoring legislation for the people of
Oregon, WARREN GILL has played an important roll in
getting things done for the state.
