PROPOSAL WOULD
CUT FEDERAL AID
Martin, McNary Notified
of Seriousness in
State Plans. "
SALEM, May 22. VPY Com-
plete disruption of Oregon's
nignway program, which if it is
to proceed uninterrupted must
De iinanced chiefly through fed
eral funds, is threatened by a
proposed amendment to the Cart
right bill pending before con
gress, which would appropriate
S400.000.000 for emergency
highway relief work during the
coming year, R. H. Baldock, state
highway engineer, declared to
day. '
Arizona Man Active
Six million of the four hun
dred million dollars the same
amount ot federal money the
state is spending on roads this
year would be made available
to Oregon under the Cartright
bill on and after July 1. and
would permit continuation of the
widespread relief program now
under way.
The amendment offered by
Senator Carl Hayden of Arizona
would reduce the federal high
way appropriation in accordance
with the wishes of President
Roosevelt to 2100,000,000, and
leave the remainder or any por
tion of it to be appropriated by
the next congress, according to
word received by the state high
way department.
Relief Plans Hit
"Such a reduction in the fed
eral appropriation at this time
would completely disrupt the na
ture and distribution of the re
lief construction projects we have
planned for the coming year.
said Baldock. "It would bring
employment relief operations on
Oregon roads, which are now
giving work to approximately 6,
600 men, practically to a stand
still after July 1.
"All new highway construction
now under way on Oregon high
ways Is being paid for out of
federal funds. Ninety per cent
of this work will be completed by
July 1. No state funds are avail
able with which to continue the
program and without a sizeable
federal appropriation we will
have to close down on all major
highway improvement jobs."
Program Threatened

Compromise Result Been.
This proposal, which would be
mandatory, represented the com
promise worked out during pro

bers ot the senate silver bloa am!
the administration.
Another clause would authorise
cue president u usu oyer me na

annually as are needed.
Purchase Authorized.
Tho secretary of . the treasury

an ounce on stocks held on May 1.
. Whenever the market price ex
ceeded the monetary value of the
metal or when the monetary
stocks were greater than the 25
per cent ratio, the secretary could
sell silver.
