PLANS FOR ROAD FROM
West salem TO DALLAS
SOON TO Be PREPARED
Highway Commission Will
Present Project For Gov
ernmental Approval.

As result Of action taken by the
state highway commission meeting in
Portland yesterday, the stste highway
engineer will soon prepare plans for the
road from West Salem to Dallas. At this
is post road, the commission will pre-
sent the project to the government for
approval and cooperation in its con-
struction.
The commission also will receive pro-
posals at its next regular meeting on
February for number Of paving
jobs, as follows:
From Corvallis to the Polk county
boundary; from Grants Pass to the
jackson county boundary, and from
Hillsboro to the Multnomah county line
via Beaverton and Bertha.
In addition, bids will be asked for
the following grading jobs:
From Drain to Yoncalla in Douglas
county and from Stage Coach pass to
the Josephine county line and the CO.
lumbia river highway across Morrow
county.
Plans were also made to advertise the
overhead crossings at Divide, in Lane
county and the one at Comstock in
Douglas county if details are arranged
in time.
The grading in Douglas county en-
braces about eight miles Of road and it
will be substituted for the paving pro.
ject between Roseburg and Winchester
which had been scheduled. 1t was con
sidered more important to conclude
grading of the Pacific highway in the
county before beginning paving work.
Needed Legislation Discussed.
Necessary legislation to make the
J state road laws more effective were dis
cussed. II was decided that number
Of notifications Of the present laws
would be submitted to the Legislature
which, based On the past experience Of
the commission, would secure a smooth
er administration. Among these was
authority for the commission to make
locations of main highways where the
location has not already been made.
This will solve the difficulty of locat-
ing the west side Pacific highway
through Yamhill and Polk counties
which has been bone Of contention.
Another location made by the legis
lature is the junction Of the branches
Of the highway near Junction City in
Lane county. There is movement on
foot to extend the east side branch
around through Coburg and make the
junction south Of Eugene. 1t is fell
that the commission by reason Of itf
knowledge Of all conditions, is better
qualified to make locations than the
legislature.
Paving Authority Sought.
Another recommendation is that tht
commission has authority TO determine
where hard surface should be laid ant
r the type Of surface, whether it should
: be macadam or pavement. Under thu
+ law the commission does not have any
option and in some cases 1t is mad'
! obligatory to pave where 6 maeadan
surface would be sufficient to meet th'
: present traffic conditions.

tion between the county and state OF
