Highway Expert Tells Why the
Government Should Help.
HAS THE RIGHT AND ABILITY.
Secretary of Farmers' Qood Rosda
Laagua Pointa Out How Stataa Can
Ba Halpad by Bond laaue Oafinlta
Conoluaiona on Construction Methods.
II. a. Gross, secretary of the Farm
era' Good Bonds league, has written
as follows from Chicago to the editor
of the New York Tribune oo the sub
ject of bulldlug Improved highways:
Should the federal government by a
bond Issue assist the states to build
public roads? If so, to what extent?
The answers to the above questions
Involve the consideration of several
things first, the right of the govern
ment to do so, the need of It, Its ability
uud, last, whether It Is a wise policy
to adopt. In the brief space available
we must assume the necessity for good
roads; that their condition affects mar
ket conditions and thus concerns nil
the people; that bad roads are pro
ductive of a great and preventable
waste that amounts to several dollars
a person a year; that one of the great
est needs for the social and ecouomlc
development aud welfure of all the
people Is good roads.
As to the right or power of the fed
eral government to build or assist to
bulid highways, section 8 of article 1
of the constitution says among other
things:
Consresa shall have power "to establish
postomces and post roada."
More than 40 per cent of all the high
ways aud moot of the main roads are
used for rural mall delivery aud so are
postroads In the meaning of the consti
tution. President Monroe In a mes
sage to congress May 4, 1802, says:
In whatever aense the term "establish"
la applied to postomcea It must be ap
plied In the aanie aense to post roads.
Cooley In his book on constitutional
law says:
Every road within a state, Including
railroads, canals, turnpikes and naviga
ble streams, existing or created within a
atate, becamo a post road whenever by
action of the poetofllce department pro-
vision is made lor the transportation of
the malic upon or over It.
The above la deemed sufllclent to
show the government bus tho unques
tionable right to luiprovo highways
used for rural mall delivery.
Article 1, section S,- olauso 1, provides
In part: "The congress shull have power
to lay and collect tuxes, duties. ImtHirts
' and excises to pay the debts mid provide
for the common defenso and general wel
fare of the United States."
Is not highway improvement for the
general welfare?
On March 14, 1H1H, tho house of rep
resentatives passed the following reao
lutlon:
Resolved, That congress has power un
der the constitution to appropriate money
for the construction of post roads, mili
tary and other roada and of cunals and
for the Improvement of waterwuya.
Among the early statesmen who bold
that the federal government had ample
powor to build roads were Jefferson,
Madison, Clay, Webster, Calhoun and
othors.
Tho government bus expended mil
lions on the old Cumberland road and
a number of military roads, establish
ing a precedent. The public roads of
Doarly every civilised country In the
world bavo .been built In whole or In
part by Its general government. It Is
the only plan that has over succeeded.
It Is thu world precedent.
As to the need for better highways
no argument la necessary. The gen
eral government Is expending Kld.uUO,
000 a year on rural delivery. Accord
ing to Senator llnnkhead of Alabama,
the postottlce department estimates
that uniformly good roads would mean
longer routes, more regular service aud
a saving of 20 per cent In tho coat.
Thus the loss to tho KwtolHre depart
ment due to bud roads Is now $7,XX),.
000 a year and Is Increasing an the
service Is extended. It will soon reach
110,000.0(10 a year. While bad roads en
tail a loss to the ntall service of $7,
000,000 to 110,000,000 a year, tho loss
to tile farmura and consumers of farm
produce cannot be less than twenty
times as much.
As to the ability of the federal gov
ernment to assist In building good
roada, how liettnr can we Judge this
than by cominrlug the dobt er capita
of our country with tho lending nations
of tho world that have built good
roads aud found It paid to do so?
The per capita debt of Germany, ac
cording to tho Chicago Dolly News Al
manac aud Year Hook for UHiH, Is $4W;
England, f.SH.l3; Italy, S2; Hpaln, $W;
France, $144, and the United Htatrs,
$11.11. The amount of ammni Inter
est charge to be met by a clthteu of
Germany Is $2; France, $rt.(W; Kngland,
i 47; I'nlted States, cents.
The panic of 1IV7 was occasioned
largely by the enormous demand fur
currency "to move the crops." Why
need the crow lie moved with such
baste and at such great Inconvenleure
fo the railways and so completely
drain the cities of money as to cause
a panic and the loss of many tulllloua?
The farmer knew the winter and lad
road season was approaching and tuist
If he didn't gst'hls crops or lefose
the roods broke up be didn't ksaw
bow lung the emlwrgu of bad rvni
would prevent hhn from doing so.
Another factor was the InsnfflcletC
f oount of government bonds to scire
as the basis or national bank circula
tion. As no bonds were available the
banks could Dot Increase their circula
tion, as they would have been glad
sTi do and which woold have Immedi
ately rellevajt the financial strata. The
country needs good roads, and It seeds
larger debt (strange as tost nay
louudi. Out ot this dilemma the way
Is easy.
If the federal government was to
Issue as needed $400,000,000 of 2 per
cent thirty to Bfty year bondB to aid
In road building It would carry tbe na
tional debt up from $11.11 to $15.55
and the Interest charge from 20 to 89
cents per capita. The debt per capita
then would be almost exactly where It
was ten years ago.
It would require $8,000,000 a year to
pay the Interest on the bonds, but ev
ery dollar of it would be saved upon
the one Item of rural delivery.
Of the 2,100,000 miles o' highways
about 000,000 miles are post roads, and
about 800,000 of these are unimproved.
The $-100,000,000 for nntioual aid
would give about $500 a mile, or about
25 per cent or the average cost or
building bard roads upon tbese high
ways. After ten years of study of road
building at borne and abroad thu writer
has reached the following definite con
clusions: First. That If wa are to have good
roads within a generation tho federal
government must assist In building thorn
Second. That the government contribu
tion tie pro rated among the states as
the work Is done on the busls of one-hair
the gross sum upon the full road mlli-ugi-of
the state and one-hulf upon the basis
of population. The plan works out fairly
to all tne stutcs. Tins plan would mniu
avallable out of $100,000.(100 approximately
12,000.000 for New York. I2il.ooo.ou) foi
Pennsylvania. B2.O00.O00 for Illinois. 118,-
000.000 for Ohio, flS.Ooo.000 for Michigan.
etc.
Third. That the actual construction of
the roads should bo done under state su
pervision upon specification approved by
(ho United Btates government engineers.
Fourth. That the Initiative should hi
left with the respective townships road
Jlstrlcts or parishes, these to furnish ai
least one-third of the total cost, with tin
4tate clothed with power to veto any Im
iirovcment If of Insulllclent Importance.
This powor would prohahly be seldom If
ever used. It may be assumed If the road
vas not a main highway and needed thv
,oople of a township would not vote to
hulhl It when they had to raise at loam
one-third ot the money required to do so.
Fifth. That If this country Is to fulfill
Its high destiny uud meet the require
ments placed upon It by Its wealth, posi
tion snd Its opportunity good roads are a
paramount necessity, and to get them
speedily requires both federal and stnte
old to hearten the people to undertake
this great work. Qood roiuts will do more
for the educational, social and economlo
development of the whole country thar.
any other alngle agency.
Marked for Death.
"Three years ago 1 was marked for
death. A grave-yard cough was tear
ing my lungs to pieces. Doctors fail
ed to help me, and hope had fled,
when my husband got Dr. King's New
Discovery," says Mrs. A. G. Williums,
of Uac, Ky. "The flrBt dose helped

CONSTANTINOPLE, Dec. 17. Af
ter an Interval of 32 years, Turkey
tndny entered upon a second attempt
at constitutional government with the
Inauguration at Constantinople of
tho new Parliament elected under
the constitution promulgated by the
SuMnn In July of this year.
The Sultan opened parliament In
liersun with elaborate ceremony,
fnsliUined after tho customs of similar
assemblies, Tho scene was, perhaps,
ono of tho most reinnrkitblo In tho
political history of tho world. All
tho creeds and races of tho Turkish
Empire sent their duly elected rep
resentatives. Tho many varied cob I times of the
delegates, sumo In Mowing silk robes
