GOOD ROADS AND THE
COST OF LIVING
[Bv Associated Press.

IBv Associated PresS.1
Richmond Va, Nov. 20-Good roads
as related to the cost of living was
discussed by United States Secretary
of Agriculture James Wilson in an
address here today before the Good
Roads Congress. He declared the cost
of living would be reduced when there
was established a more intimate rela.
ton between the producer and the
consumer. With the increase in the
good road mileage, the parcels post, he
said, would perfect the facilities for
getting from the farm to the town.
Relations between farmers and
town folks can be established he eX.
planned, for the prompt transfer daily
or weekly Of much that the farmer
produces and town people consume.
At present when the town dwellef
pays a dollar, the farmer gets half or
less With parcels post the farmer
would get more, the carrier would get
mis- freight and the consumer would
get his supplies promptly fresh and
good. Dairy products, fruits, meats
and vegetables are transferred in this
way in other countries, with great sat.
iSfaction TO all concerned and with
less unhealthy food fewer Dtomaines
and less frequent stomach troubles.
The value of farm land and the eX-
tent and character of production
thereon are influenced largely, the sec.
rotary pointed out, by the condition
of the public roads. Many products,
he said, can not be transported fot
long distances over poor roads, so thai
farmers in such country must raise
crops that are not perishable This
works loss to both producer and con-
sumer, to the former in that he must
deliver his goods when the roads per-
nit, to the latter in that he must pay
higher prices than if good roads would
permit the farmer to deliver his milk
fruit and vegetables with less wear
and tear on horses and wagons and
in less time.
Every farmer should, merely as a
matter of self.interest," said the sec
rotary, be strong advocate of road
improvement and should give prac-
teal support to a movement looking
to the betterment of present condi.

Turning to what has been done in
this direction by the department of
agriculture through its bureau of good

ATHLETIC UNION MEETING

New York, Nov. 2O-Delegates from
all the sectional associations of the
Amateur Athletic Union met today for
the annual national convention. New
York was awarded the indoor national
athletic championships, and Madison
Square Garden was decided upon as
the place and December 26-27 as the
dates for the great meet of the ma.
TONS athletic stars. The juniors will
compete on the first date and the sen.
Tors will strive for the championships
on the following night.
Several questions of vital impor-
lance to the future of amateur sport
are before the convention. and on aC-
count of the alarming growth of pro.
fesisonal tendencies among supposed
several radical reforms have
been proposed.
Decided opposition has developed
among the athletes to the new two
year release rule which the national
union proposes to pass at today's
meeting. The clause concisely states
that an amateur athlete who completes
for any club and wishes to wear the
emblem of another organization mus;
compete unattached" for two years
unless released" At the presen5
time the period is one year, and the
majority of athletes consider this suf-
ficient punishment
Officials of the union hold that by
passing such a rule it would protect
the smaller clubs from having their
stars stolen away by the big clubs.
