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. PIONEER MATRON OF BROGAN DIES MRS. B AR B AR A H EART COLE ATTACK TEN DIES OF DAYS AFTE R HER SISTER'S DEATH.
