The Portland Chamber of Com- ( mcrco is getting back of 'the proposed I highway from The Dalles to the Cali fornia line, and at a meeting of the I board of directors, held In Portland j Friday evening, a strong stand was liken on tills question, ns Indicated by the following from the Oregon lau of Saturday: "A strong stand was taken for the roadbullding demands of the counties of Klamath, Lake, Deschutes, Jeffer son, Sherman and Wasco, with the fear expressed that Lake and Klam ath counties. Isolated from tho re- imnlndcr of Oregon by highway re strictions, may secede and unite with California unless prompt action Is taken. "In a resolution unanimously adopted the state chamber directors urged that Tin Dalles to Klamath toad, for which provision was made In the' $6,000,000 bond Issue of 1917, recoivo the Immediate attention of tho highway commission "toward the construction of this most-needed highway." "This resolution asked that the slate highway commission Institute an Investigation of tbo needs of tho several counties and "offer such rom- edy ns Is In tholr power." It further declared that tho counties Interested In The Dalles to Klamath road had vory properly presented their claims "to a just share, not only of the $6,- 000,000 bonding fund, but of the subsequent fund provided under the $10,000,000 bonding act and tho federal appropriation." "lloth Mr. nooth and Mr. Tnomp son of the highway commission ap peared before the melng and gave assurance that the road from The Dalloa to the California line would be taken care of in tho present year's programme, or so much as could be expeditiously handled, niey also toiu tho state chamber directors that the Ashland, Klamath Falls and Lake view highway would be taken care of this year. "Mr. llooth who Indicated to tho meeting thnt he would reconsider his Intent to resign from the highway commission, said that the had ar ranged a meeting with tho county courts of Klamath and Lake counties to bo held some time the coming wook, when tho exact route would bo determined. "Both highway commissioners re minded tho R tn to chamber that -the only reoBon tho road from Tho Dalle? to the California lino had not been started before was the fact that a troublesome Injunction suit had held up the project. They declared that this had been generally forgotten rind that tho commission had been un justly blamed for delay, while its members wore nil In favor of going ahead with tho construction," Slnco Friday Tho Herald has had tho question of tho Highway Conurils slon coming to' Klamath up by wire with County Surveyor, C.

Oregon's bonded indebtedness, which Includes the obligations of tho state, counties, cities, school, reclamation and port districts, amounts now to upproxl mately $60,000,000, with proipects or tho total running to $90,000,000 by tho end of this year. The aggre gate Is larger probably than tho aver age property owner and taxpayer has believed to bo possible Three years ago tho total bonded indebtedness of Oregon communities was about $54,000,000. Since then the amount or municipal bonds out standing ror street and other im provements benefitting abutting prop erty hns been substantially decreased without the Issuance of new bonds of this class, but tliu total of general ob ligation bonds outstanding hns been Increased by the Issuance of several million dollars of state and county highways, port Improvement and Irri gation district construction securities. The nnnuul interest charges on the total of public bonds now outstand ing amount to about $3,000,000, and requirements for sinking funds nro ror a total fully ns large,, so that ap proximately one-tenth of tho .people s bonded Indebtedness must be raised by taxation each year. The same rules will apply generally If the bond debt grows to $00,000,000 by tho end of 1919. .1UIMH-: CALKINS OVKItltL'I.F.S PLAINTIFF'S DKMUltltKU TO DKFKXDANT8 ANSWFK IN IHO COUItT ilOUSF.

He pointed out tbe great advantage It would be to Portland and plainly told those present that the people ot Klamath- were not satisfied with the efforts that were put forth in the' pait by the people of Portland to aid iu the construction of this lino or, tho Straliorn road. He also called at- i tcntiou to tho constitutional amend ment passed by the last legislature, which permits counties to tote bonds jip to six per cent of their a&sessed valuation, and asked business men of Portland to get back of this amend ment so that tho counties of Eastern Oregon would be In j position sj help themselves.
