ROADS.

The suggestion Of two new kinds of public
roads in addition to the two kinds now in ex
istence which has been made by the legisa
tive committee that has been investigating the
general subject of highways, has some support
in the practical logic of the At first sight
it might seem desirable to simplify matters By
having all roads of one kind, SO far as author
ity for their construction and maintenance was
concerned. But 1t is obvious upon reflection
that roads as a matter of fact differ very
widely in their uses and it may well be argued
that on that account there should be CORE
spending difference in their origin and in the
levying of charges for their construction.
In former years, though since the general
advent of railroads, common roads were chiefly
of local use Only small proportion of those
who used them drove further than TO the
est railroad station or market town. With the
substitution of macadam for mud the of
roads became more extended and both business
and pleasure drives became longer. The com
ing into general use of automobile vehicles has
enormously increased what may term the
length of haul until now many highways
arc not merely village streets or streets con
Meeting towns or cities dozen or so miles
apart but are arteries of travel clear across the
state. and from one state to another. They
have become veritable trunk lines. 1t might of
course be argued that even such road should
he charged upon the individual communities
through which it passes, each being required
to build and maintain its portion But there are
at least two strong answers to that contention.
One is that such system would be likely 10
result In a patchwork the different parts of the
road varying in style of construction and care
of maintenance, and the other is that such
roads are very largely used by persons from
communities not lying directly on them, who
would thus have full enjoyment of the roads
without sharing in their cost. The more equi-
tab BILE course would apparently be, then, 10 make
such trunk highways a charge against the
whole state and TO have them uniformly con-
structed and maintained by the state.
There is another increasingly strong argu-
nept to the same end, which was hinted at BIZ
speaker In New jersey the other night, who
declared that roads should be made to At the
traffic. not the traffic to At the roads, It Is
evident that now the roads do not 1T the traffic.
Roads which were amply strong and satisfac-
tory for horse drawn vehicles Of all kinds are
quickly and badly damaged under the greater
weight and higher speed OF automobiles. They
uiust be rebuilt TO ft this heavier traffic. and
thar will involve great cost But IL would
scarcely be fair 10 require q rural village to
90 10 such expense for the sake Of the great
pass through it The problem is happily sim
pli,ied by the fact that the bulk CT heavy auto
mobile travel Is along comparatively few
roads II such roads were built by the state
in a manner suited to the traffic, the local tax
payers would be exempted from what they not
uusAaaonably regard q IN unjust imposition,

L4RORERS AND THE CHI RCH.

Noteworthy utteranceS have recently been
made on two aspects of a question winch. in
the opinion of many, sums up the most vital
issues of the day. Churchmen and working
men competent 10 speak with authority have
within few days called attention 10 the
disastrous results Of overweeninG lndivlduailsm
among Americans. From practical railway
man writing for the current Atlantic
Monthly comes the striking declaration that
conditions virtually amounting to anarchy"
prevail in American railway administration
Strengthening his position Sr Il citation OF

Pagan. AYERS that at least 81 per cent of the
accidents on railroads, wherein thousands of
persons are killed and vastly greater number
injured annually. caused by negligence or
wiIful disregard of orders by employees. OF the
reckiessly disobedient attitude of workinsmen
thus portrayed he gives this explanation:
For great many years the influence of the
va ilroad labor organizations has been consistent
IL exerted not only raise wages and to i'm
prove conditions, which. OF course Is perfectly
proper and justifiable but also TO nul!ify disci-
pline to destroy personal management and
authority and to obiterate from all schedules
and working agreements any reference to or
consideration for the paramount interests cf the
travelling public.
The other aspect of the question was re
veaed in sharp outline the other day at 4
New York City Federation of Churches and
Christian Organizations. The purpose Of that
conference was to discuss the attitude Of the
Church toward labor, and the fact that only
thirty persons were present was construed by
one of the speakers as 'the most perfect exam
pie of the attitude Of the Church toward this
problem today The truer this remark Is

approved by the debaters, that this problem
.of labor is the most important one the Church
has had to face for several generations; and
the more obvious does it become that church
men are open 10 precisely the same charge OF
and "clan morality" which has
been brought against the labor unions and
their members. For, if the plain truth be
plainly told one common habit Of mind leads
churchmen to leave with the 'workingmen the
solving of their own purely economic prob
lens" and the laboring classes to set uH false
