WASHINGTON, .Inly 21. -Approx
ininlrly $2011,000,000 was spent lift
yrnr on pulilio romls in tlio Vuitetl
Stnte, neeonlini; to stntinies pre
pared by the V, S. ilenrtinent of np
rieulttire. In 1004 the totnl vn ont.v
$70,000,000. In nine yenrs, there
fore, tliu increase lias been over 1230
lor rent.
This nwnkenhiR on the port of tho
country to tho iiuportnnre of pod
umiN bus, experts tny, been due. In
j-rent nicnmiro to the principle of
hlnto nid to counties mm other local
eounnunities. Xcw Jersey bepnti the
movement in 38!U when it wel its

wore piow io move.
States Slow Io Move
In 1001 only fifteen lind Mate
highway departments; today there
are onlv six that liayo not. In 1913
the individual states appropriated n
total of $38,7f3,0S8 to supplement
local expenditures.
Tho value of this state aid l,
however, not to bo mensured by the
figures alone, for the bulk of the
money comes, and always must
come, from the counties and town-
t-lmw. Thus, in 1012, the cash out
lay by counties, districts and lown
ship, was $137,-193,085. Complete
fipurcs for 1913 nro not yet avail
able, but it is safe to estimate the
Mini nt approximately $151,000,000.
To this must bo added some. $13,000,
000 to represent the value of labor
contributed instead of cash In dis
tricts where this practice prevuils.
list year therefore, local communi
ties contributed in round numbers,
mio hundred and sixty six millions
of dollars, as npninst appropriations
from Mate treasuries of $38,7.")5,
088. Tho J rue importance of this
thirty eight millions lies in the fact
that it means expert supervision of
the cxMuditure oil a conMdcrablc
portion of tho vast sum of two hun
dred millions.
Advantage In Hauling
These returns nro or various
kinds. First nml foremost is tho
reduction in the nclunl co.-.t of linnl-
iii'', the plain fact that it tnkes lcs
time and labor to haul n load over
a pxxl road than over a xior one.
I.et.s obvious is the effect of improv
ed roads in increasing the total out
put of ti community. In the ciiu of
one county in Virginia where partic
ularly thorough records have been
kept, this output was more than
doubled. The fanners found that
with a market always am: readily
accessible to them, it paid to work
the land to its maximum produc
tion. This explains the very remarkable
rise in farm land values which near
ly ulwnys accompanies road improve
incut. The rise is not a fictitious
one, of no benefit to the man who
wishes to fnnn and not to sell. The
laud is more valuable because it
can profitably be made to produce
more. In other words, the money
that goes into the road conies buck
with interest from tho laud.

Any such transfer of tho sub

The Dally News takes a Btrong at

"There are profound misgivings on

going only "to look things over,"
but it was rumored that a meeting be
tween himself and President Fulti of
tho IMajcrs Fraternity had been ar
ranged.
Tho announcement of Gllmoro's
trip followed closely the news that
the Federal League had won a victory
In the Chase case at Huffalo and that
decision, combined with tho triumph
tho outlaws scored In tho Johnson
case here last week, was received
with much Joy by tho Independents.
"Wo never had any doubts we
would ultimately win all our cases,"
said President Gllmore. "Tho law
has been plain enough In ercry one.'!
There is nothing now to provent our
teams where strength is needed."
In tho event of a players' strike the
schedule of the Federal Leaguo may
be adjusted so that cities without
baseball through tho walkout will be
suppllod by the Independents.
It was roported hero that the
American Leaguo magnates In Now
York, in additions to their plans for
tho crisis brought on by the Fultz ul
timatum, would discuss tho situation,
which, It is admitted, will result from
the Chase and Johnson decisions.
