Highways 30r 20
Topics of Appeal
To Help Economy
Salem - IUPD - Requests lor
bond issues to finance im
provements to two Oregon
highways were made Monday
before the Senate Highway
committee.
One group proposed a S3
million highway bond issue to
pay for r c c o n struction of
parts of highway 30 between
Portland and Astoria.
Another delegation sought
a $17 million bond program
for Highway 20 from Corval-
lis to Newport.
Both termed the improve'
ments necessary to stimulate
lagging economy.
Fee Increase Favored
The Highway 20 delegation
favored an increase in license
fees, and a 1-cent a gallon
gasoline tax hike.
Spokesmen for the High
way 30 improvement includ
ed Fred Foshaug, St. Helens,
who said the present road was
dangerous.
Clatskanie publisher Art
Steele said Clatsop and Co
lumbia counties were econo
mically distressed. "The tour
ist business is all we have
left," he said.
But Steele said he opposed
Issuing bonds to finance the
improvements.
Bridge Eyed
Sen. Daniel Thiel (D-Asto-rla)
said completion of the As
toria bridge will "open up
Northwest Oregon," and
make highway improvements
necessary.
The need for improvements
to help the Lincoln county
area improve its economic
situation was strongly argued
by the Highway 20 delega
tion.
Capitol Journal Reporter
William Bebout, who recently
authored a series of articles
on Lincoln county's economic
potential, said "lack of trans
portation was a critical
obstacle."
Feels Ignored
He said the area fecis it
has been ignored, and now
wants its fair share of high
way improvements.
Dr. Kenneth Patterson,
Oregon State university, pre
pared a study for the delega
tion showing it would cost
$17 million to finance the
work through a bonding pro
gram, and $11.3 million if the
work were financed all at
once from current highway
department revenues.
The highway commission
has repeatedly stated it docs
not have the mony to rebuild
the roadway. The commission
also is opposed to bond financing.

cost the state's general fund

vict from working outside the

employment ;ifter release.''

Kails) suggested an ap-1
prentice ship program be

gram. The committee took no ac
tion on Kadeley s bill.

nounced he would file a mi
nority report.

bility employers to file a bond

mittee also voted to allow an
employer to appeal a case

erage of 17.7 per cent over

it's ELECTRIC HEAT!
Building or remodeling? Remember ELECTRIC HEAT, utilizing pure, clean energy rather
than messy burning fuels, is the only truly new and modern way of heating under the sun!
And it's the most adaptable. There are electric heating devices simple, inexpensive and worry
free to fit homes of all sizes, shapes, and decor and to fit every living area, every need,
within the home. A few to choose from:
RADIANT CEILING CABLE: Provides
exceptionally even heat. Completely concealed
in your ceiling. Very inexpensive to install.
ELECTRIC BASEBOARD: Installed
around outside walls, take up no valuable
wall space. Created to blend with any decor.
Especially adaptable to new rooms and wings.
ELECTRIC WALL PANELS: Especially
adaptable to small rooms. Installed in or
on walls, with decorative grills or flat, heat
radiating surfaces.
HEAT PUMP: Heats and air-conditions,
according to your needs! Thermostatically
controlled heat pump means complete and
automatic climate control in your home! Very
economical to operate. Initial cost compares
favorably with traditional (and out-moded)
central heating and cooling systems.
AND THERE ARE MORE! Investigate
thoroughly before you decide.
