they wanted. No date was set for Q
further deliberation of the committee
with the court.
An interesting and instructive ad
dress was delivered at the Saturday
evening meeting by Murray Kay,
county engineer, on the methods OF
road construction. MIR. Kay callec
the attention to the absolute necessity
of having roads properly located before
permanent improvement work is begun
1t is hard to expend too much money
on proper surveys, he said. lie com
mended the action taken in having the
survey of the Columbia river highway
made through the county. He
pointed out that good portion of tn,
many thousands of dollars that haC
been expended in past years in the val
ley had been wasted.
MIR. Kay is opposed to the hardsur
facing of too great an extent of high
ways, He called attention to the sane
clay roads of the valley, those built b!
b. F. Eadleman, on Portland Way, anC
those under construction by Roy ID
Smith in the Barrett district. But frs
of all the county engineer urges tn,
county to prepare dentiite outline o
future construction.
''If we had $40, 900 to eXpend tomor
row." he said, 1--WE would not know
how to begin. We haven't even 1

Prof. Shelton, of the Oregon Agri
cultural College, who came here anC
made an inpeetion of the county high
ways Saturday morning, endorse,

Location and drainage" he said
''are among the chief factors in roa,

sand-clay roads. 'I made a trip t
Georgia last year just to inspect th
roads of this character, called top sol
roads, that they have bhere. Wher
the proper ingredients are to be had

technical points of road building. -
