WASHINGTON. p. c.. July 7.-In
|fhe United StA1es Senate to-day Sem

delivered an address, calling upon the
Federal government for financial aid
in the building OF roads throughout
Ithe country. Senator Swanson show
nually millions of dollars for rail-
roads to carry the mail and the coun-
try over which It's rural routes ex-
tend has the same right.
He said In part:
Mr.. President: There Is no question
before the American people to-day
more important than the iinprov EN- ent
of the public roads and highways,
The progress OF this nation in nearly
all directions has been phenomenal
We have established our pre-eminence
In m lost things : We have become efYe
greatest manufacturing people In the
world, the products OF our factories
exceeding those Of Britain and Com
tineptal Europe combined. Dur mines
furnish the world more than one-half
of Its mineral products and wealth.
Our plains and prairies are recog-
mixed as the granaries of the world.
Cotton continues the king of plants
and the worlds comfort and clothing
are dependent upon the white fields
of the South. We occupy to-day the
foremost place In the worlds COM
merce. our exports now exceeding
those Of Great Britain. Our wealth
to-day is greater than that of any
other nation. Recently we have be-
come supreme In finance. our bank
ing capital being the greatest possess
ed by any people. The worlds finan-
cial heart now throhs in New York,
and Its pulsation affects the world.
We now surpass all other nations in
the amount OF money expended for
primary and general education, in the
creation Of colleges and splendid uni
versities. In miles of railroad. navi-
gable rivers and improved frarbors we
are unsurpassed. Our progress In
these. directions has been SO wonder
full that its story reads more like
romance than history.
Yet. Mr.. President as amazing as
are these varied achievements. 1t Is
admitted that to-day we have the
poorest public roads and highways
Iof any civilized nation. OF the 2.lh5.-
900 miles OF public roads within the
United States less than 100000 miles
are .macadamized or in.proved with
hard surfacing. Thus. more than nine
tenths OF the public reads and nigh
ways Of the United States during rainy
seasons are almost impossible. No
other enlightened people In the world
are cursed with such a wretched con-
ditfon. Our energies and our money
have been generously extended In
every other direction. except in the
betterment OF our public roads.
Government Is Dcrclict.

tributed out Of its treasury vas. SUMS
