. STREET IMPROVEMENT NEEDED ,
If Klamath-Falls is to (be honest with the tourists it
invites here to share the wonders of the county's scenic
attractions; the city council should make immediate pro
vision for the improvement of South Sixth street as well
as the Shippington road. .. . - '- v.'..
In their present condition both Sixth, street and the
Shippington road are a disgrace to the city. Both are
a part of The. Dalles-California highway, and both are
subjected to heavy traffic.
: : It is a common saying among auto tourists that when
' they strike a particularly badv piece "of road,;, they: feel
fairly certain that1 they have entered the corporate limits
of some city. The habit is not uncommon with smaller
- cities' throughoxit the land to let main highways on . the
. outskirts of the city limits become almost inlpassable.: ;
In the' winter time South Sixth street is a sea of mud,
; and how that summer is heref -it is a ribbon 'of dust and
' . chuck holes arid almost anything but a street. The Ship
pington road in spots is even yorse. ' -k"-
.Auto traffic in Klamath Falls and in the county is
becoming .increasingly , heavy and will continue so in
definitely. , For that, reason the city council should, with
out any delay, order the improvement of these two
highways. v : .

Nor is the paymaster sorry. A

hesitate to exposs their employees.
Transportation . of largo sums ot
