Cook with gas. By Harvey M. Toy, Chairman, California lliglnwiy Unmiiilwiloii. Eastern politics, plus a misconcep tion of the purpose back of federal aid. may Imperil th present highway policy of tho national government. There is every Indication that the cru cial test will come at the next session of congress. The west must be united if federal aid for road construction is to be continued. This opinion is tthured genernlly by western highway builders who havo been In close touch with tho situation. The time to sound the alarm is now. We must be up and doing or we will loso the funds without which high way construction cannot be continued in many sections west of the Rocky mountains. Not Concerned With Academic Dis cussion. The wont is not concur tied with aca demic discussions of state's rights in dulged in by eastern politicians; it will continue to demand federal aid in the construction of highways as an Income to which it Is entitled. These funds are asked of the federal government because It owns millions upon millions of ncres In western states mineral lands, national for ests. Indian lands, national parks which are not taxable, from which no revenue comes to the states, but across which they are expected to con struct splendid highways for the ac commodation and pleasure of eastern tourists, coining westward In ever in? creasing numbers. Committee Hearings Important. The public lands committeo of the United Slates senato Is about to con duct it series of hearings to inquire into the public land policy of the na tional government. Officials of west ern states should not fail to call the highway situation to the attention of he committee. The public domain, which In sev eral western- slates is considerably greater in area than all New England, Is as much the properly of New York as it is the property of the state in which It Is located. Eastern and middle-western states, having squandered their forests, demand conservation of nationally-owned timber areas in the west. I do not criticize that policy, but it ought to be taken into consid eration In determining highway ap propriations. , Eastern senators are complaining against the federal aid appropriation because, they assert, their states pay more In federal taxes than they re ceive back In federal appropriations. Are we a nation or a confederation of states? Shall all the taxes paid on Broadway be expended on Broad way, or for other necessary govern mental purposes throughout New York City? Where would California bo If all the state, taxes collected in San Francisco and Los Angeles were expended only in these cities? Tho Htate government could not exist un der such a plan. And such a policy would wreck the national government. Federal Aid ami the Constitution. Federal appropriations for high ways are in accord with both the letter and spirit of the constitution. As pointed out by Mr. Floyd C. Booe, stitutlon of the I'nitcd States author ment, section S of article 1 of the con of the Nevada state highway depart izes congress "To levy and collect taxes, and provide for the ien- eral welfare of the United Slates." Another clause of Die same section authorizes congress "to establish post offices and post roads," This author iKatloii precedes tho authorization for t ho creation of courts, support of armies and navies and other Import ant powei-K of congress. In the early history of tho country numerous ap propriations were made for the con struction of national roads, until the invention of the, steam locomotive put highways in tho background to await the coming of tho automobile. Tho authority of congress to make such appropriations has never been seriously questioned. And at this time .such appropriations should not bo considered subsidies. Tho slates are building the highways, the federal government Is merely helping pay the bill. Some wealthy eastern states get along without federal aid; possibly California could, but many states can not. Must Have a National System of High way. Interstate highway transportation Is more tmpnrtzint today than ever be fore In our history. Wo must fight the forces of disintegration by making It easy for tho people of every part of the natlpn to visit each other. We must become one nation, 0110 people. Federal aid means continuity in our highway construction -11 truly nation al system of highways reaching into every part of tho country. The work of building such a system now well planned under the present policy, will be Impeded, probably halted alto gether, if federal aid Is not conlnued. The west must mnko the nation realize tills fact. America does not want many unconnected state .highway sys tems. It needs and must have one great national nyntcm of , Improved roads. Convalescing? ANYONE recuperating from an illness needs very special food. It must be highly nour ishing and well-balanced yet must put no extra strain on the digestion. And of course it must be appetizing.
