rect tax revenue as is due in the early

1t has been airily suggested that any

porary loan and the contingent FUND
which is the unexpended balance from
last year, amounting to slightly oyer
$500, 900. This suggestion fails to take
into account the general financial pro-
gram of the State which will require
us to provide for all State expenditures
on a considerably larger scale than
heretofore with little corresponding in
crease in indirect taxation revenue and
with no hope of relief from revenue OBJ

OF this course was perceived, howey-
| er, and the authority was delegated
to State highway commission with
| in certain general restrictions. In
| the same way general bridge law
was enacted to supercede the former
! practice of making special appropria-
| tions to aid cities and towns in the
construction Of large bridges. Fol-
lowing the same policy the Legisla-
turc in 1917 added 100000 to the
amount available for state aid roads
and provided that the Highway Com
| mission might use $4,000 Of this
amount as an equalization fund to
| provide for the Sort of cases that for
| merly had been handled by special
! resolves. This arrangement took eff
feet in 1918 in accordance with what
l supposed was a thorough UNDER
standing with the committee on ways
| and bridges in the Legislature Of
1917 and that the old arrangement
should prevail for the year 1917 and
an agreed amount spent for special
| resolves with the understanding that
! the equalization fund should be ex-
pected to take care of such cases be-
ginning with 1918. 1t may be that
such law unduly restricts the func-
tions of the Legislature. but it was
| adopted in accordance with the theory
which now prevails in some other de-
partments and in the rest of our
highway work. namely. that COM
mission devoting its entire time to
the problem can apportion the sup
Elementary aid beyond the general
n fol ho n
tee of the Legislature in the brief
time available to them with only the
information introduced at ex parte
hearings and without opportunity to
determine the actual roads which are
under discussion
A still more important reason for
, continuing the policy which was es-
tablished in 1917 is the unfavorabIe
effect upon the general legislation
result from the consideration of
large number of special appropria-
tons by the Legislature. If further
evidence on this point were needed it
has been forthcoming in the past
eleven weeks. This controversy
about special road resolves has been
smouldering and rumbling through
out the entire session and the ten
dency has L-en to delay if not finally
to destroy much important legisla-
ton. Now. at the beginning Of the
twelfth week of the session. there
have been presented to me for sigma
| ture only about one-quarter of the
bills and resolves that are named at
the average session and that will I'M
doubtedly be passed at this session.
Among those still pending in COM
mittees or on the House and Senate
calendars are most of the really i'm
portant measures that have been pre-
scented for your consideration. At the
best it is doubtful if you will be pa
tient to stay here long enough for
careful and mature consideration CT

alone is acid. therefore irritating. and
should be mixed with orchard white,
this way: Strain through fine cloth
the Juice OF two fresh lemons into a
bottle containing about three ounces
OF orchard white, then shake well and
you have a whole quarter pint Of skin
and complexion lotion at about the
cost one usually pays for a small jar
Of ordinary cold cream. Be sure to
strain the lemon juice so no pulp gets
into the bottle, then this lotion will
remain pure and fresh for months.
When applied daily to the face. neck.

full consideration on their merits that
Il symphony orchestra would have or
rendering a successful program in a

But if the first objection to this
bill be regarded as somewhat theor-
etical, the second is intensely prac-
teal. 1t is proposed to withdraw
81 90 400 from the s377,000 which con-
stitutes our only available fund with
which to match the Federal road
building appropriations during the
building season of 1919. The amounts
available from the Federal Govern
ment are as follows:
Balance remaining from the fund
! provided under the old law before
June 80. 1919, SlSI654.eS:
Amount available July /, 1919,
sl92.4a2.62.
The sum of these two amounts, or
! the total which we have agreed to
match under the old law for 1919 Is
$3.50, 0t7.6O, about $4,000 more than
the total amount now available for
, the purpose.
In addition there Is available from
the Federal Government under the
new act before June 80. 1919. $lSl,-
PSI So and on July /. 1919. there will
be available from the new act, $721,-
S47.S3, a total of $1.205.07S6S avail
able from the new act this year. In
order to set thisS money the State
lot -
a dollar for every dollar of Federal
money. but must actually eXpend up
on the roads the total amount repre-
scented by both the Federal and State
appropriations and receive the Fed
eral money only in the form Of reim-
bursement for actual expenditures.
Theoretically these reimbursemtnts
can come at intervals as the construc-
ton progresses, but actually the
processes of the Government depart
ments i'll Washington are so slow and
tedious that nearly the whole road
building season will elapse before any
reimbursement from the Federal
Government will come in.
That is, we have available this year
a joint Federal and State fund
amounting to s3.166.25256 for high
way construction. The Federal gov
eminent is urging us to spend a,
much of this money as possible this
year in order to provide work for re-
turning soldiers and it is for our own
interest that the work be rushed as
fast as possible. The practical linn
it of this program for 1919 is the
amount that we can carry financially,
for. as l have shown you, practically
the whole of the joint fund will have
to be. actually expended before mon
ey will begin to come from the Fed
eral Government.
1t is proposed to finance this road
building project by the issuance of
new bonds. but this requires a con-
stitutional amendment which cannot
be acted upon before the second Mon
day in September and the money
from the sale of bonds will not. there

ing out three times as many hulls as
their southern competitor did up to

At the present time there arc is

which steel ships are being construct
ed. These ways had turned out to-
tai of IS hulls up TO December 81, 1918.
During the same period the reports
from San Francisco show that from a

had been completed. A comparison
of this tonnage launched gives Port

Portland is dry and San Francisco
