Road Work Moves Quickest OBSERVERS frequently point out that highway con struction is the only type of public work that seems to be making headway, in spite of frantic efforts to get other development under way. Everywhere they are building roads and giving work to idle men. Other proj ects are still in the discussion stage, or the blue print stage, or somewhere short of actual construction. The reasons, of course, are plain enough. Highways are an accepted public responsibility. Proposed roads are on the programs of local chambers of commerce, and in the prospective programs of public boards and commis sions years before they are built. It is known pretty well what is to be done when it can be done. State and local financing methods have been worked out, ready for quick expansion through federal help. Administering boards which can accept responsibility are already set up. So, when the country feels the need of a stimulated public construction program, the highways are ready to go. That is a fact to be considered as the public works effort is continued. In this connection, it is significant that the state highway commission is considering a pro posal to borrow money from the PWA to build and com plete various highways in Oregon. What this may mean locally, if carried to the extent of finishing all the major projects, is indicated in a sur vey made by the roads and highways department of the chamber of commerce and submitted to the highway commission. The estimated eost of completing the five projects in and adjacent to Klamath county would be $3,825,000. If ft is decided to go ahead with public works on a big scale, with highways playing a dominant part, and to borrow PWA money in Oregon for that purpose, the projects in this area deserve consideration, both from the standpoint of providing needed roads and relieving cuta unemployment conditions here. WASHINGTON News Behind the News e e The Inside Story From The Capital e e e By PACb MALION Copyright. 1111, by Pan! Malloa The Barnes Suit LEST an injustice be done to Justice of the Peace W. 6, Barnes, . there should be a thorough .public under standing of the purpose of the suit brought against him by District Attorney T. R. Gillenwaters, on the basis of non-failure to turn over marriage license fees to the county. This h in reality a test case. During the last election campaign, and subsequent to that, there was criticism of Judge Barnes' office in connection with the marriage fee situation. It is reported that letters have been sent from here to the governor with regard to it. The district attorney agrees with Justice Barnes that in other justice courts, the justices do not account for marriage license fees. It is questionable whether the law requires that they do so. Furthermore, it is agreed that Justice Barnes has not always collected $5 for each mar riage he has performed. Hence, it is apparent that Justice Barnes has acted in good faith. If he has not acted in accordance with the law, which i the matter to be determined in this suit, he has acted in accordance with practices in other justice courts. If there were irregularities in connection with the marriage, license fees, they were not intentional. In the course of the present suit, the ourts will de cide on the questionable point of law. However the case k determined, it will still the fire of criticism at the judge and at the district attorney. In the meantime, the public should withhold judgment, and it should keep in mind the underlying facts in the case. L. L. Graham, a day or two ago, completed 25 years with the Southern Pacific company. The Southern Pa cific, as well as Mr. Graham, who is now district freight and passenger agent here, deserves congratulations on that quarter century of devoted service. WASHINGTON. Oct. 10 On freeslug that billion dollar In close, banka I going to be a much more careful process than the current ballyhoo would in dicate. It la not going to be anything like the break-up ot .the 81. Lawrence river Jam In May, but more like the dripping of Ink from the trosea fountain pen ot Jew Jonea. He will aee to that. The R. F. C. chairman haa phenagied thing around on the lnlde o he will be in complete charge. He crowded out Henry Bruere (bowery bank preeldent) and the treasury official who had big thawing Idea. And he did It after Preel dent Roosevelt himself had pick ed Bruere for the job. PROCESS The way Jonea operated wa to work thing around so that R. F. C. money would be used for the job. That wa not hard to do became the federal re serve banka decided their funds were not available tor such a purpose. It Jonea was going to be com pelled to nse R. F. C. money he wanted the say-so on how it waa used. Hi argument was un answerable. It mean that Jonea own ex aminer will make their own separate Investigation of each closed bank. Asset will be scrutinised under the atrong microscope the R. F. C usee on all who want to borrow money from it. The easy examination policy of the treasury is out. The Jones process will take month and perhapa year. The story Is going around that Jones' sympathies for the big thaw more can be registered at about 30 degrees below sero. That seem to be a exaggera tion. Jones' friends aay he le In favor of common-sense business like methods ot appraisal. He doe not believe the money should be doled out In a phil anthropic way merely to create purchasing power. Anyone who want to get any of his money will have to show something for it. No one can criticise that. Bruere has been left so much out In the cold by the Jones maneuver that they are trying to warm bis heart with rumor One is that he will get Treasury Secretary Woodtn'e job, another that he will succeed Gov. Black of th federal reserve. The last one may come true. Black Is eager to get tar away from Washington as aoon a the pres ident will let him go. Bruere would till Black shoes amply. TRICKS Jones has been working on an other Inside scheme better than that one. He Is the kind of man who figures out ways of killing a whole flock ot blackbirds with a single brick. He thought he had the New York banking crowd cornered in favor of his preferred back stock plan but they waltzed out on him. After promising to sup port his scheme they merely recommended it to their boards of directors and the boards turn ed it down. Since that time Jones has been working on a certain large New York bank to lead the way Into the preferred stock program by another route. The bank insists it does not need the money but Jones has , pointed out that the city of New . York wants to borrow from the I bank. Let the bank take the I money from the R. F. C. and lend It to the city, says Jones. A deal along that line I sup posed to have been ready for announcement for the past aev- eral days. The whole thing will not be announced as one deal. That would ruin It. First the bank will announce that It is cooperating with the Jones preferred stock plan. A lew days later It mar announce the loan to the city.

What could be sweeter 1 e FLUSH Life will never have another moment more embarrassing to the wife ot a certain government official than when she picked up a newspaper not long ago. A newspaper feature service was running the blographtee ot the wive of government officials. Their pictures, histories and ex periences were being told in detail. But there where her ntoiranhr should have been was the atory ot her predecessor in the house hold of the government official, hla first wife. A complaint was made but It was decided further mention of the subject would only make mat ters worse. XOTES Mr. Roosevelt's favorite econ omist is an anonymous gentle man mentioned by the president frequently but only the title of the interpreting economist." The man Is employed In Frank Warners central statistical board and his material is never pub lished but only submitted to the president tor personal use. Our diplomatic sources con fidentially reported Herr Hitler was amazed at the bad world re action to his anti-disarmament declaration and would welcome loophole wherebr he could crawl out of It. Most ot our officials privately believe Hitler is just passing out that salving information and doubt his sin cerity. They say he really did count on Narmoa Davis to act as mediator and was hurt when ir. Koosevelt ordered Davis to keep his hands in his pockets. - .

Th farmer represent about 40 per cent ot the total market In this country, which means that before business can be really good and employment plentiful the buying power ot the farmer must be materially Increased, If business Is wise, therefore, It must hope that In the long run AAA will work fully as well as NKA. e e e TT WAS the war, you see. that throw overythlng out ot joint. Europe, apparently, Is getting ready to go to war again al though, ot course, there Is still a possibility that common sense may Intervene to prevent such a catastrophe. Tn last time Europe went to war, we got Into It also getting nothing OUT of It but burned fingers and big debts. If Europe goes to war again, the wise thing for as will be to S.TAY OUT, sell lng fcurops what she needs and getting such benefits as com to Us In that way. In the long run, another war would do ns far more harm than good, but temporarily It would help by providing a war market for our agricultural surpluses.
