PER CURIAM.
The abbreviated statement of purpose proposed by the Attorney General in this proceeding reads:
"HIGHWAY BONDS TO ACQUIRE OCEAN SHORE
"PURPOSE: Constitutional amendment. Defines `ocean shore' as beach between extreme low tide and vegetation line. Dedicates `ocean shore' as perpetual public park. Directs state to acquire privately-owned `ocean shore,' if appropriate. Authorizes issue of general obligation highway bonds for future acquisition. Permits use of gasoline and motor vehicle tax revenues to retire such bonds. Allows leasing of `ocean shore' or granting easements or licenses, if consistent with public recreation. Confirms existing public rights to `ocean shore'."
In this statement, as in Anderson v. Thornton, decided today, 250 Or. 185, 441 P.2d 240, the Attorney General has also used the hyphenated words "privately-owned" to reduce the number of words in the statement. In order to eliminate a word we have stricken the word "such" from the sentence in the statement reading: "Permits use of gasoline and motor vehicle tax revenues to retire such bonds."
With this modification the ballot title is certified to the Secretary of State.
Costs to neither party.
