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.

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-

atcgerated by most ot it advo
cate. 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

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.

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
