The fact th a t the United States Is a t
w ar with a foreign foe only furnishes
an additional argum ent in support of
the good roads bond bill. Im proved
and serviceable highw ays are a m ili­
ta ry necessity In tim e of war. hi th e ir
present condition, even the m ain tru n k
roads in th is sta te are en tirely Inade­
quate to m eet th e situ atio n should the
Pacific Coast ever be attacked by un­
friendly forces. Good roads a re not
only desirable in tim e of peace but are
positively indispensable when the
country Is in a state of war.
The most important thing about a bank is the character and ability
of the men behind it: the men who direct its affairs.
