Scant encouragement Is given the re
quest lo r a survey of the I. O. N. high
way from McDermitt to Nyssa by Leslie
M. Scott, chairman of the Oregon high
way commission. However, in a com
munication received by
The Journal
Saturday, Mr. Scott stated that some
funds might be available for a survey
from McDermitt north. He added that
the survey would probably be directed
toward Crane.
"Approval of a survey for the con
nection with McDermitt will be deter
mined by the federal bureau of roads,
also the final selection of a route,’’ said
Scott. “The Oregon highway commis
sion has no funds to place the route on
the state highway system and there are
to many highway needs in the more
populous paits of Oregon. Oddie-Colton
funds cannot now be used for the M c
Dermitt road, except perhaps in a small
way for a survey, and the survey will
probably be directed toward Crane.”
The Nyssa Commercial club has pass
ed a resolution opposing the routing
of the I. O. N. by way of Crane on the
ground that it would be a more circuit-
route, would serve far less people than
the proposed connection through the
Owyhee and Jordan Valley irrigation
projects and would not give the short
cut market haul that is urged.
I f the road was routed toward Crane
it would tie in with the Central Oregon
highway which runs west to Burns or
east in a circuitous route toward Vale.
I t would traverse the country which is
desert from McDermitt to Burns and
would not serve the irrigation projects
o f northern Malheur county to the
greatest advantage, the
Nyssa club
avers. Tying in at Harper would be
preferable to the connection with
Crane.
