It was through the activities of
the Roosevelt Memorial Coast High­
way Association that a plank was
placed in the Republican platform
pledging the early completion of the
Roosevelt Highway. Fred C. Baker,
secretary, and other directors of
the association, have been working
to bring this about for several
weeks, and they have been quite
successful.
Walter L. Toose, Jr., chairman of
the Republican State Central Com­
mittee, in answer to a letter from
Mr. Baker, has pledged the Repub­
lican party to the early completion
of the Roosevelt Highway, which
was backed up by the republican
conference in Portland on Tuesday.
Mr. Tooze’s letter is 1» part as
follows:
"The Republican convention to-
morrow will adopt a platform con-
taining
an "endorsement of the
Roosevelt Highway, and if the Re-
publican party is continued in pow­
er the road program, including the
completion of the Roosevelt High-
way, will be carried out. This will
be a solemn pledge of the Republi-
can party.’’
Mr. Baker, secretary of
the
Roosevelt Memorial Coast Highway
Association, is perfectly satisfied
with the promises made by Mr.
Tooze and the Republican party for
the early completion of the coast
highway, It was through the ac-
tivities of the Roosevelt association
tha the coast highway was made
part of the state highway was made
large amount of road work and
money expended on the coast high-
way. There is a gentlemen’s agree­
ment between the association and
the present State Highway Commis­
sion that the coast highway will be
completed as soon as possible. This
is, of course, contingent upon
present administration bffhg
turned to power, but should it
defeated there is no telling when
the highway would be completed.
Other issues have been injected
into the coming political campaign,
but they all fade into insignifi­
cance compared to the completion
of the Roosevelt Highway, as far
as the coast counties are concerned,
according to Mr. Baker.
The plank in the Republican plat­
form is as follows:
“We recognize that Oregon has
an immense undeveloped territory
in the coast counties that will be of
inestimable value to the state when
it is developed. We believe one of
the most efficient ways to develop
this territory, and thus grektly in­
crease the wealth of the state.
Id be th« balldin* of roads to
make it accessible, and we therefore
favor the completion of the Roose­
velt Highway at the earliest possible
date consistent with the state road
finances.
Israel P. Putman of Hebo, • di-
rect descendant of the Israel Put-
man of Revolutionary War fame,
was in the city this week. Mr. Put­
man was a member of a West Vir­
ginia light artillery battery during
the Civil War and recalls many in­
teresting incidents of that conflict.

—The Mohler Creamery was totally
destroyed by fire which occurred at
an early l^our Sunday morning.
About 2:30 A. M. Chas Stevens,
who lives acros sthe river thought
he saw a dark cloud in that direc­
tion, but on looking again a short
time after saw the flames breaking
through the roof.
Before help
could be obtained, the building was
completely wrecked. Only by hard
fighting were the flames prevented
from spreading to adjoining build-
ings. Several automobiles i which
were stored in i a shed near by r were
saved by their owners at the > 1m-
minent risk of their
l
lives,
An insurance i of $4000.00 was
carried on the building anta some
insurance was also carried on the
cheese stored in the building, This
sum is entirely inadequate to re-
place the plant but plans are al-
ready under way to rebuild, The
origin of the fire is unknown.
