Bonds VIII Justly Spread ,5 S.
Road Construction Costs
Highway Commissioner Points Way to
Let Each Year Pay It's Fair
} Portion of Improvements

Highway bond issues alone allow
the state to apportion to each year its
proportionate cost of bridges, grading
and other permanent road improve
ments, Charles M. Babcock, state
highway commissioner, assisted in a
recent address. Otherwise, he said,
present highway users pay the full
cost of their own and future urers'
road improvements. Bonds authorized,
he added, fair share of the cost of
lasting betterments, many Of which
will serve all time, may be justly
passed on to future generations.
Minnesota is using nearly half its
current trunk, construction, funds to
buy right-of-way and for grading, til
ing and other permanent work-the
permanent foundations Of the highway
system" said Mr.. Babcock. "In the
future it will be necessary only to re-
surface these roads at long intervals.
The highway department purposes to
recommend first trunk highway bond
issues to the next legislature because
it knows that they afford the only way
of fairly dividing between the present
and the future the permanent road
building expense.
without affecting decreases in
road taxes, which started when the
state took over the trunk highways
for iprovement with motor vehicle
funds and federal aid, the bond plan
will mean immediate benefits and
profits from present expenditures. 1t
will put the state with respect to
roads, in the same position as the
man who enjoys his home while pay
ing for it, and adopts the principle
under which the school districts al
ways borrow funds for buildings that
will serve for many years."
Under any other plan, Mr.. Babcock
said, the public must wait to use the
improved roads without any saving
from the plan which will make them
available in the near future. &

Minnesota Creameries Open
Own Supply Hous G
President A. J. Mcclure, Says NJ "
Branch Will Save Farmers
100000 a Year

Organization Of supply depart
ment, which will save farmers of the
state 100000 a year, was announced
this week by A. J. Mcclure, genera
manager of the Minnesota Co-opera
tive Creameries Association. The job
bling house has the possibilities of do.
ing more than $1,000,0OO worth Oh
business yearly, Mr.. Mcclure says
because creameries in the association
annually spend that amount for mach
inery and supplies.
The department, which has been un-
der consideration for several weeks
is the most important project under
taken by the association in recent
months. E
WIN. C. Rasmussen of Albert Lea
an experienced creamery supply man,
has been placed in charge, Officers
have been obtained in the Central
Warehouse, St. Paul.
"We long have relied the need fol
such a department, says Mr.. Nc
CURE. "Thus far, without trying to
push that phase of the association, we
have handled more than $40, 900 worth
of machinery
1--WE know that the department will
save 20 per cent on tn average pur.
chases probably more. If our supply
house handles all the business of mem.
Der creameries, which it should, the
annual saving will be around 100000
This money will go directly into thu
pockets of farmers patronizing Co
Operative creameries, because thu
various companies will be able to pa!
that much more for butterfat, b.
reason of the lower operating cost"

Minnesota could collect more than

in the state trunk highway bulletin.

and we paid $2.10 in road and bridge
tolls the letter reads. "Out Of Curl

auto tax payers something to think
about, and the tolls here may partly

pull itself out of the mud and abolish
the tolls" t58
The bulletin adds an example of
how Minnesota car owners are not

East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1922-06-24

The Pendleton Auto Company re-
ports that, judging from present indi-
cations, great number of enclosed
cars will be sold this fall throughout
the territory. Mr. David |. Stoddard,
Franklin dealer in the La Grande and
Baker territories, when in Pendleton
this last week, placed his orders with
the local distributors for two touring
limousines, three sedans and one
coupe all to be specially trimmed in
Spanish leather upnolstery-two
Demi Sedans and one Touring all TO
be delivered as soon as shipment can
be made.
No new Franklins are available this
week report the Pendleton Auto Co.,
as business has been so brisk that they
have sold out all their new cars. Used
cars have also been moving very
rapidly.
So far during June the Simpson
Auto Co. has sold and delivered 25
new Fords. More sales have been
made, but delivery is held up until the
company can secure cars. The branch
office at Portland is being beseiged
by distributors anxious to get as many
cars as possible. Il camped there for
a while this week, and think I'll
have to go back and do the same thing
again next week in order to get half
as many as we need to fill orders,
Bob Simpson said yesterday.
Auto dealers always expect buvers
to hesitate bit during tho latte" part
of June because of the fact th"t Htnt"
auto licenses taken out after July
cost only one-half as much as if taken
put for the entire year, and buyers fig
lre on holding off and getting the
benefit Of the saving on licenses. Not
this condition, local deal
ers almost without exception are
,wamped with orders. Prospects are
hat by this fall the leading COM
oanies will b. far behind with de-
iyeries.

When the Simpson Auto company
gets real impatient because it Is inn
possible to secure enough Fords in

naand, the members of the finn get
some solace out Of the fact that they
are having the same kind of trou-
bles that other Ford dealers are en-
countering A statement from the
factory office has been sent out stat
ing that dealers have called for to-
tai of 1880 cars during this month,
and the output of the factories will be
10000, In, other words. there are
about 5000 Purchasers Of cars who
will have to wait until the factories
catch up before they can get their
machines The local company is maxi
ing every effort to secure cars as fast
as they are sold but at present they
are several machines behind in the
race.
