GOOD ROADS AS MONEY SAVER
Lay Sermon by Curtis Hill on Gospel
of Better Hiuhways.

Lay Sermon by Curtis Hill on Gospel
Of Better Highways.
Curtis Hill, the state highway engi-
neer, is. sending to the people of Mis-
souri, pamphlets for spreading the gos-
pei Of good roads. Here is copy:
1T is right that people should fear
heavy tax rate and should prevent
taxes from becoming exorbitant. A
certain amount of taxes, however, Is
necessary to provide for public lnstl-
tutions and to improve the country. A
low tax rate does not necessarily mean.
a public saving. Not the amount of
money spent. but the judicious .expend-
iture of 1t, should be our position. -.
"Road improvement should keep
abreast with the growth Of the state.
No one Internal improvement is more
essential to the prosperity and nd
vahcement of the state than good higll-
ways. One reason the roads are not
improved is because the people fear
they cannot afford 1t. 4iny
at must, however, be borne In mind
that no road official, no matter how
efficient he may be, can build roads
without funds. Permit me to quote.
from letter of one Of our county
highway engineers; we have. SONG
very attractive scenery In our county,,
but the only safe way to see It Is in
an old fashioned farm wagon or by
airshiD When I first cnma 70 thia
county 1 could not understand why
people with such good road material
at hand had no better roads. This
was twenty-five years ago, and at pres
ent the roads are worse than they were
then. The reason is plain from the
following figures: Total mileage Of
roads, about 1000; road fund, $1.994.75.
not quite 81 mile for road mainte-
nance.'"
