Speedometer Test Courie On the state level the com mittee is encouraging the state highway department to establish a speedometer test course on Interstate 5 be tween Medford and the Cali fornia border. The committee also is rec ommending eternal vigil on state gas tax money. The con stitutional revision committee had suggested the legislature be given the power to divert certain funds for other pur poses. These funds are raised by the gas tax for the sole purpose of building and main taining Oregon's highways and should continue to go into the state highway department funds, the committee added. "The committee views with alarm the practice of the leg islature of bonding for certain highway contracts, thus im posing politically inspired projects upon the state high way department. This prac tice adversely affects the de partment's planning and its progran ," Hubbard said. "Such contracts should be I h e exclusive responsibility of the department otherwise strong pressure groups work ing through the legislature could completely upset the orderly planning of the de partment."

Robert Smith, Mail Tribune Washington cor respondent, which appeared in Wednesday's Mail Tribune. The article referred t o Unander's reporting of his campaign contributions. Unander charges that Smith's article is a "shocking display of profesional incom petence," adding that the facts of this "tempest-in-a-teapot" are plain and simple as Smith could have "obtained them for himself had he taken the trou ble to make one telephone call." The candidate explained that he, personally, has re ported no contributions to his current political campaign since all contributions to his campaign are turned over to the Unander for Senator com mittee. Article Quoted In his article. Smith said that "Unander has employed a loophole in the federal cor rupt practices act to cloak the identity of his election cam paign contributors and the cost of his campaign." "Sen. Wayne Morse, for his part, has shielded the identity ELECT BY FAR THE BETTER QUALIFIED MAN BERLE STEPHENS Jackson Ccunty SHERIFF Continuous Service Since 1951 In Law Enforcement and Investigation World War 2 Veteran Honest Competent Cooperative Pd. Pol. Adv. Dorris Chinn Stephens Com., 101 Lozier Lane of the contributors of over two-thirds of the amount he says he has received thus far in his reelection effort," the article stated. Unander added that under the laws of Oregon, the Unan der for Senator committee will make a complete and de tailed report of its campaign contributions and expendi tures within ten days follow ing the election. In the mean time, he explained, the com mittee will open its books on 24-hour notice to any person who may be qualified to de mand it. In concluding, Unander stated that he does not believe that his campaign finances ex ceed one-third those of his opponent. "1 can state that t estab lished a policy at the outset of this campaign that the re sults of Tuesday's election should depend upon the can didates and issues, and not upon the dollars spent." Elsewhere in today's Mail Tribune is another article by Smith giving further break down of Morse's campaign contributions.
