ROADS

! We all want roads, regardless of the
fact that good roads cost much money
to construct We all want our taxes
to be less, if possible. We can't have
good roads with out increasing our
taxes greatly, If We construct them
without state or government aid.
Then 1t appears we should support
| those measures that will give the
people the greatest return of out side
money for the smallest amount of di.
rect individual and county tax. What
measure is this? There will appear
on the primary ballot on May 2lst a
constitutional amendment to change
the legal bounded industries of the
state from two per cent of its assessed
value to four per cent. The only
change it will make If it carries Is
that the word two is changed to read
four And what will it cost You Il it
carries? If you do not own an auto
1t only costs you a of 1 mill which
you are paying now and have paid for
several years If you own an auto it
will not cost you one cent more than
you are now paying for your auto
license. In other words, the present
auto license will provide interest and
sinking fund to take care of and pay
OFF bonded debt of $4O,OOO,OOO
And where is Lincoln Co. particu.
larly interested in this? State High
way Engineer Num- says that ii the
measure carries the State Highway
Commission will be provided with
sufficient funds to complete every pro-
ject they have on their program and
that there will be $S,0OO,000 remain
ing for new projects.
If this measure carries as it should,
provided the coast counties get behind
IL, think the chances very bright
for coast road from this source.
There is bill before Congress appro-
priating S100,000,000 a year for four
years for forest roads, also $4,000, 900
e year for ten years for Post roads.
Almost one-half of the coast is in a
forest reserve; and road the entire
length of the Oregon coast would east
ly come within the difinition of a
Post road
These measures have the endorse
ment Of the Il Forest States, and AL
aska. The State Highway Engineers,
which met at Louisville, Kentuckey,
endorsed the Roosevelt Highway, and
these two measures. They also have
the prestage and support Of both the
Postal and Forest branches OF the
Federal government.
Then here is two chances of getting
the $2,500,0 900 voted for the Roosevelt
Highway matched from a source not
dreamed Of at the timc the money
was voted. think the coast road is
making progress, but that cur best
bet is to put over the Constitutional
Amendment and get the states inter-
ested. The State Highway Commits
sion would like to connect the CCrval-
lis-Newport Highway with Tillamook
county. Let us quit quarreling among
ourselves over community matters,
and give our attention to something
worth while, DO your wn thinking.

ATTORNEY GENERAL
GIVES OPINION ON
NEWPORT ROAD FUND

The City of Newport recently made
a demand upon the County Court for
some $4,000, which they claimed was
due them as their share of the road
fund taxes. The Court contended that
they had made no special levy foi
road purposes, nothing but the general
levy being made. and therefore New
port was not entitled to said sum as
demanded.
The matter was referred to prose-
cuting attorney McCluskey and he at
once took the matter up with attorney
lgeneral Brown. Following are excerpts
from the attorney generals opinion:
Salem, April 10, 1920
Honorable G. b. McCMskey
District Attorney for Lincoln Co.,
Toledo, Oregon.
Dear Sir:
/ have your favor of the 18th instant
enclosing copy of the tax levy made
by the County Court of Lincoln County
for the year 1919. You call attention
to Chapter los, found at page 139,
Laws of 1917, making the city of New
port a separate road district, and re.
MOVING .he same from the power and
authority Of the County Court of Lin
coin County to divide said county into
road districts, and to appoint road
supervisors, and to exercise authority
generally over the roads and highways
within said city,
The county road tax is authorized
to be levied by Section $500, Lords
Oregon Laws, which section is amend.
ed at page 1873, General Laws OF Ore
gon, 1915 It has been held, however,
by our Supreme Court, that 1t is not
mandatory upon the County Court to
levy said tax and that the County
Court may draw upon the general fund
Of the county to pay for the construc
tion and repair of roads and highways
under the Jurisdiction of said court.
And the court further holds that where
no road tax has been levied under
the provisions of said Section $500,
but the expense of construction and
repair is paid from the general fund.
! no moneys can be demanded by city
under a statute similar to Chapter 105,
Laws of 1917.
An examination of the tax levy, copy
of which you enclose, reyals that no
county road tax was levied under said
Section $500, but the levy there made
I is one for the benefit Of the general
fund.
| am therefore of opinion that the
| city OF Newport is NOT in a --pesitioh
to demand payment by the county of
any of said funds to said city.
Yours very truly,
G.. M. Brown, Acknowledgement.
