Our Roads Go Forward ris not idle talk about the speed and ease of travel for automobilists who use the Maupin-Klamath-Weed route either way between Portland and California. It is a route that is being rapidly "discovered" by motorists, in spite of certain map disadvantages. Quite evidently it must be considered as an important alternative to either the Pacific highway or the Roosevelt highway for . coastwise travel. An important step in the development of this route jeame yesterday when the state highway commission called for bids on contracts to be awarded October 25. Two important sections of the east-mountain route were included in the projects listed. One of the contracts will provide for the raising and grading of seven and a half miles of the Weed-Kjamath Falls highway between Midland and the California line. 'At the California line, this improvement will connect with important construction work now nearing comple tion by the' California state highway department. The latter project carries the road into Dorris from the state line, eliminating the worst stretch on the entire route be tween Weed and Klamath Falls. It is evidence of Cali fornia's determination to do its part in the development of the Klamath-Weed route. On October 25, the commission will also let contracts ion a portion of the Warm Springs highway. This is a cut-off, slanting north from The Dalles-California high- way at Madras, north of Bend, and connecting with the Wapinitia cut-off highway at Bear Springs. When the entire Warm Springs project is completed, it will reduce the distance between Klamath and Portland and be tween California points and Portland by the east-mountain route by the distance of 30 miles. Thus, Klamath Falls finds itself coming steadily into prominence in the highway picture, just as it gained a leading place on coast railroad maps a few years ago. It is interesting to note that highway travel, like railroad travel, is finding it advantageous to cross the Cascades in Oregon and to drop back into California along easy grades north of Mt, Shasta. Incidentally, the chamber of commerce should not slacken its map correction work. There are still many highway maps put out that do not give the Weed road credit for what it is, although this is a tendency that will be found less frequent as construction work on this route continues. Stay On The Lid BUDGET-MAKING time is here again. In the next few weeks, financial plans for all the levying bodies in the county will be completed. Some have already been prepared. Last year, it will be remembered, there was a wave of intense public interest in budget-making. People ac quainted themselves better than ever before with mat ters of public business, and went to bat for economies before the budget boards. Perhaps there will be a slackening of interest this year. There has been some improvement in economic conditions, and prospects of higher prices and inflation have a tendency to loosen the purse strings a bit as re gards future expenditures. But it is to be hoped the policy of strict economy is continued and strengthened in places where it did not prevail last year. The plight of the real estate taxpayer is as serious as ever. The burden of debt still weighs heavily upon us. Tax delinquency still runs into start lingly high figures. This is no time for recklessness, extravagance, or even easy generosity. We do not mean to imply that such ten dencies exist among the various budget boards, but it would be well for the public to maintain its interest in economy problems and to help the budget boards sit on the lid. From San Francisco comes a story of a man who, by "patient grafting," has developed a regular orchard out of one tree, which now produces 23 varieties of fruit. Fair enough for the horticulturist, but if the truth were known, his accomplishments are dwarfed by the activi ties of "patient grafters" of another sort.

But the relationship ot supply and demand la FAVORABLK. That ought to mean that as soon aa the early supplies that have been pushed onto the market are consumed the price should RE COVER. It that Is true, growers should ot be in too much ot a hurry to tell the bulk ot their crop. MENTION bam. and one thinks atnrally f eggs. Mention potatoes and on thinks Immedi ately ot steak.

WASHINGTON Newt Behind the Newt e The InMe Btory From The Capital Ily PACT, MAI.LOM Copyright. 1JS. by Paul Mallon WASHINGTON. Oct. II Two or three inflationists have been tipped oft by 'the White House that a monetary statement will be comiug from the president shortly. They' war led to believe It will be devaluation to a 60-cent dollar, with ramlflrattona con cerning silver and perhaps the commodity dollar. They were told to keep their shirts on nnttl the president Is ready to do his announcing. That Is why they have beta so quiet lately. e e SIGN'S On senator recently declined to write a story about Inflation because his private information indicated Mr. Roosevelt would speak before the story could be published. Another has been telling his closest triends there Is a good chanc silver will get helpful action. He is figuring on bl-metallism. but that probably is too much to expect. More likely a silver purchasing scheme will be what he will get. These signs can hardly be ac cepted aa definite, but confirming inferences are now comiug from another quarter. Th banking crowd Is passing th word around that federal reserve officials and Mr. Roose velt have been getting very close to agreement on a gold policy. REASONING The bankers are coming around to the Roosevelt way of thinking by a circuitous route. They say they were opposed to going oft the gold standard in the first place. They inter that they would not hare gotten into this currency problem at all. But now that we are In It. they agree that the thing to do is to get back qn gold. They realise it would be difficult and useless to try the same old gold stand ard again. So they are willing to take a new gold standard on the basis of the existing valua tion of th dollar. The new opinion waa very widely expressed In private by the federal reserve governing group which was recently her. Also It Is known very definite ly now that the British hav been sounded out on th matter ot currency stabilization. The British war debt dele gates here are probably truth ful when they ssy the subject Is not being mentioned In their debt conferences. But they hide the fact that Informal discussions have been going on outside the conference. Our officials are whistling a new tune about that. They say they would like to have Britain come in on currency stabiliza tion, also France, but neither Is needed. They Insist France would be forced to devalue it we did. Also that England could run along and roll her own hoop aa she is doing now. That kind of reasoning sounds suspicious. Up to now these same officials have been using the recalcitrancy of England and France as an excuse for not devaluing. The most logical explanation Is that our negotiations with Eng land and France have not been entirely successful and our of ficials are getting around to the point where they will take a chance on going into the thing alone. e OPPOSITION Not all the bankers favor the scheme. A bloc of antis recent ly heard what was going on. They started planting yarns around about how much devalua tion would cost those who have dollars now. Also the idea was circulated that devaluation might prove useless as a price stimu lant. These stories are probably true. The results to be expected from devaluation have been wildly ex- 'Say, I Guess f iJc- : I d0ffiT u, i&&xmz yv PL..,. SIDE GLANCES by ceorg, ciar !va&5?? 1M IT Mt lOWKt IWC WW U $. MT.

Yet the fact remains that "buying now" and credit stimu lation and all the other current programs are encountering the Insurmountable obstacle of t dol lar with St Vitus' dance. NEW IIRAIX TKl'KT Mr. Itooserelt has been seek ing a conservative way of calm ing it. lie said as much to a banker who recently called at the White House. This banker cam away with the view that the president was leaning more and more towards sound money and other conserv ative policies but that he is try ing to present a sufficiently radi cal appearance to placate those who are shouting for drastic and quick action. That seems to be the game. It you waut any further proof, all you need to do Is watch those who are running in and out ot the White House these days. Not Senator Thomas or the money radicals. But Got. Black ot federal reserve, Jesse Jones of R. F. C. the conservative treas ury boys led by Wood in and Acheson. It Is clear that the money policy Is not being fixed by the advanced thinkers or by the brain trust. e GLASS EXPLOSION The NKA folks here knew all about Senator Glass and his re fusal to be blanketed ' by the Blue Eagle. They tried to krep the matter under cover. The senator spoiled their plans by ad mitting it in a public statement to the first one who asked him about It. His whole home town where he owns two newspapers Is sup posed to have followed his lead. Scouts from Lynchburg, Va., say that attention being paid the NRA there Is not as ardent as in some other places, OSCULATION Baby kissing always has been a necessary adjunct of politics.
