14 MAIL TRIBUNE, MeoW, Oregon, Prldey, August T. 1958 Condemnation Actions Declared Costly to Oregon Salem (CPS Condemnation actions have cost the state some $183,000 in the past three years, Highway Com mission Chief Counsel L. I. Lindas told the commission here Thursday. , Lindas said the actions con sumed 350 days in court. The commission deferred action on 133 pending prop erty condemnation actions un til later in their two-day ses sion here. Lindas said about half the actions probably would be settled out of court. The commission granted Lindas authority to split with Idaho $36,042 forfeited by Hoffman Construction Com pany, Portland, which refused to accept award of a contract to construct the Ontario bridges over the Snake river in Malheur county. Rights-of-way agents of the Highway Department would be prohibited from taking out side employment that might Interfere with their state du ties, under terms of a resolu tion adopted by the commis sion; The commission said the resolution was necessary to avoid conflicts of interests. Lindas and State Highway Engineer W. C. Williams said they would make a further study of other conflicts of in terest that might involve Highway Department em- ployees. Engineers are already pro hibited from taking outside jobs. The commission gave pre liminary approval to improve ments of the Oregon-Washington highway in the Milton Freewater area because of ex cessive truck traffic during the nea harvest. They turned down a Hilte boro delegation which had sought a connecting road with the Sunset Highway other than the county road now used. Lack of funds was the reason. 1,400-Mile Course Mapped for Cars Portland Mileage achieve ments of small, foreign make cars, will be established over a 1,400 mile course through Oregon, the run finishing on the State Fair grounds Aug. 29, Sig King, of the Oregon State Motor association, who is logging the proposed course in the official AAA travel car, has announced. The actual route will not be announced until just prior to the run, to avoid any possi bility of a driver making a practice trip, the Motor As sociation official said. The route is expected to cover most major cities and towns in the state and will end as a feature of the evening pro gram at the State Fair Aug. 29. The International Mileage Marathon, as the run is called, is being sponsored by the Greater Oregon State Fair committee with the coopera tion of the Oregon highway department, state traffic safe ty commission, the Oregon State Motor association and the General Petroleum Cor poration. Iraq Regime Wins Added Recognition London (UPD The new re volutionary Iraqi regime ap peeared Thursday to be well on the way toward winning diplomatic recognition from the West. The icejam was broken Wednesday when the Moslem members of the Baghdad Pact Pakistan, Turkey and Iran recognized the government of Premier Abdul Karlim Kassem. West Germany and Greece followed suit. Authoritative sources said that while the Baghdad Pact members had reached a deci sion on an approach to the Iraqi question, they had failed to find any solution to the problem of Jordan. Reports reaching here indi cated rising tension in Amman. CJ Council Approves Jubilee Request Cave Junction The city council approved the plan presented by the Illinois Val ley Jubilee committee to re view the custom of holding the annual celebration along the main street in Cave Junc tion as in former years. The plan for this year will call for the concession stands to be erected along the main street where space permits.
