, ? Accomplishments
The ..' Pan - American highway

an outstanding success, R. H. Bal
dock, state highway engineer, re
ported on his return here Monday.
Baldock said arrangements
were made to standardize High
way specifications, highway de
sign, and. methods of testing ma
terials. "The seyeral countries also
initiated a procedure for the for
mulation of an authority to han
dle' the financing of construction
of the Pan-American highway,"
Raldock continued. "Even more
important was the spirit of coop
eration and of friendliness mat
prevailed. The delegates repre
aentlnc the United States made
many friends among the South
American m delegates at uw.: con
ference." " ' ;
, Road to link Rations
Baldock said the Pan-American
highway eventually would con
nect the two Americas and tie to
gether the economic and cultural
civilization or the peoples or tne
western hemisphere.
"South America Is now the
source of the larger portion of the
raw materials of the world and
every nation is vying with the
others for trade with our souw
American neighbors."
M Irani Chile Ouake
Slow work of his stenographers
was responsible for Baldock's
absence from the Chile earth
quake zone at the time of the re
cent temblor which resuitea in
the death of 40,000 persons, be
declared.
Baldock said the stenographic
work required a longer period
than had been anticipated with
the result that he did not leave
Santiago until several days after
the quake.
"Although the shock was plain
ly f e 1 1 in Santiago no one was
killed in that section." Baldock
concluded.

Father of Country
Still Influential
Washington Jlemains High
as National Example,
Speaker Asserts
George Washington's sincerity
and seriousness ot mind, his con
viction that "power was but a
public trust to be soberly em
ployed lifted- his careet to the
high plane which madei him a
national example nearly a cen
tury and a halt after his earthly
life, James Haxlett, state cor
poration commissioner, told the
chamber of commerce Monday
luncheon audience .
Hazlett devoted much f his
address to the human qualities
of the first president, which he
holds belong as much to the
county as do facts of his mili
tary life and statesmanship. Haz
lett credited Edward Everett
Hale as the first writer to por
tray truly the human side of
Washington.
Foresight, Stability Praised
Washington was not a learned
man, even according to the stan-
d a r d s of his time, but his
breadth of view and stability of
judgement stand out more as
the intrigues of his times are
understood. His silence under
great provocation was magnifi
cent.
While Washington's moral
seriousness added confidence in
the people, Washington never
held that the voice of the people
was the voice of God, though
he believed in the ultimate
soundness of popular government
Hazlett said. Washington realiz
ed the need of wise leadership,
and that leadership he gave in
supreme degree.
The speaker referred to Wash
ington's farewell message as em
bodiment of the ideals in his
own life to which he never
ceased to devote himself.
Senator Ronald Jones intro
duced Hazlett as "the man who
turned a state car back to the
state because he didn't have anv
use for it."
