April 13, 1966 State Requests Beautification In 1965, a federal highway beau tification act was passed which seeks to eliminate the eyesore of junk yards and wrecking yards in areas adjacent to the interstate highway system. The responsibility has been passed to state highway departments and Oregon’s depart ment has in turn asked the aid of counties and cities. The federal act defines junkyard as an establishment or place of business which is maintained for storage, buying and selling of junk, or operation of an outomobile graveyard or a garbage dump. It further specifies that by January 1, 1968 all such places that are within one thousand feet of the nearest edge of the right-of-way and visible from the interstate sys tem and primary system shall be screened by natural objects, plant ings, fences or other appropriate means. The act further provides that any state which does not effectively control such situations shall have its federal aid highway funds re duced until the condition is cor rected. In line with the action asked from counties, Judge Earl Seawright has outlined the requirements in a let ter which he is delivering to own ers of businesses which come under this act and is asking their cooper ation in correcting t he condition to comply with it. Attention is call ed also to the fact that such busi nesses will lose their licenses to operate if they fail to comply with the law. CHURCH OF THE NA2ARENE North Madison Avenue Milton B.
