CAMPAINS COST TOO MUCH

READ the reports of the political
treasurers, published in another column,
and you will be interested to discover
how much effect the Corrupt Practices
Act has had Tor not had) in reducing
the costs Of our political contests. You
will note, for example, that the Demo-
Gratis spent nearly $1,000 in this county
this Fall, to run their campaign. We
recognize the fact that campaigns can
not be conducted without considerable
cost; but at the same time we believe
no such sum of money can be, or at least
ought to be, properly spent in a political
contest. The thing has reached a point
where the raising of large sums of
money becomes the chief business OF
campaign managers and reduces political
contests to the most sordid level The
Corrupt Practices Act, rs It now stands,
is lamentably weak and ineffective. 1t
should be amended so as to further limit
the use of money at elections and to this
amendment both parties are virtually
pledged.

LOOKING TO THE WRONG
QUARTER

THE people who are advocating the
Improvement of the Perryville- to- Elkton
road have good cause, but are going at
1t frog the wrong end. There can be 40
doubt of the fact that this road needs
is the party to be interested-not the
County of Cecil. The roads improve
ment is called for as an important link
in a hihwgay through the State. Its i'm
prove nent would have little local value
10 this county and the county cannot
therefore be properly asked to expend
great sum of money in any such work.
The representatives of the Automobile
Club of America are pushing the pro-
ject They are circulating petitions in
this county, and many people are doubt
less signing them. You can get sigma
lures to petitions for most anything. But
when the question comes to the point OF
practical consideration and decision by
the county, there will be another story
to tell The people whose taxes will be
used to pay for this expensive improve
ment are likely to be heard from. They
will not ask what this project means to
the Automobile Club, or the Susque-
hanna Bridge Co., or the hotel people oil
Baltimore City; but they will want to
know what it means to the people of
Cecil county who will have to pay for it.
There are whole lot of irresponsible
people who never figure on the paying
for-t' end of anything. Other people
do, and these other people are already
asking what the end of this tax-bus mess
is going to be. AS a matter of fact, many
wise business men are complaining to-
day that taxes are becoming a serious
menace 20 business interests. 1t is not
simply that the tax rate itself mounts DIP
but the assessment mounts with it. Pro-
perty of every description, from hog
to a mansion house, is assessed at the
| fullest value, on the top of which comes
heavy tax rate; until one of the most
burdensome experiences of the property
holder is the payment of his taxes. I'm
der such circumstances the people of
| the county are not likely to listen very
| patiently to proposal to saddle the
county with an expense of some 1925, 900
to $4,000 for a road whose chief value
VIII be to non-residents.
We should very much like to see this
road improved, but Cecil county is not
| the party to look to for the improve
| ment. The sooner this is understood the
better it will be for the prospects of the
project.

THE ROAD COMMISSION WILL BE
PROBED

AUSTIN L. CROTHERS evidently sees
the Handwriting on the wall. He realizes
that the day and hour draws nigh when
he must give an accounting of his stew
ardsh.p in the matter of the expenditure
of six millions of dollars of the peoples
money. Thus far he has escaped.
Strange as it may seem, the people have
never been thoroughly aroused to the
fact that the expenditure of this great
fund has been almost exclusively COM
mitted to Crothers' own hands. The
President of the Commission, John NJ.
Tucker, is Crothers' personal repre-
sentative, was appointed as such, after
having been his local political lieuten-
ant for many years These twain are
one-two souls with but a single thought.
Their word has been law in handling this
great enterprise-AND ABOUT THE
ONLY LAW. To be sure the Act CT cat
ing the Commission provides that it
shall make an annual report to the Gov
ernor, but as things now stand and have
stood for these four years THAT is
SIMPLY THE GOVERNOR REPORTING
TO HIMSELF. What other and further
publicity has been given to the Com
missions proceedings. What do the peo-
pie of Maryland know about the way
their millions of dollars have been han
died, or any other administrative feature
of this giant enterprise? 1t is almost
incredible that any set of people, beyond
the age of infancy, would commit the
handling of such enormous sums and the
conduct of such an enormous enterprise,
to virtually the hands of one man, with
out any adequate accounting or satisfac-
tory reports.
But the day for this sort of business is
past. Crothers knows it is past Hence
his scramble for vantage ground. This
is why CroVhers has called together the
party leaders to map out program for
the first week of the legislative session,
while he is still Governor. He has made
a show of wanting this that and the
other done. But THE ONE THING FOR
WHICH HE is PLAYING is A BILL
THAT WILL GIVE HIM WHAT HE
WANTS IN THE MATTER OF THE
GOOD ROADS COMMISSION 1t will not
avail. We beg to assure the Governor
that the day of reckoning has come.
That Road Commission has got to be
dragged before the high court of public
opinion. He can make what deals he
pleases with the politicians, to jam
through saving legislation. BUT 1T
WILL NOT SAVE. HIS COMMISSION
AND ITS WORK HAVE GOT TO COME
INTO THE LIGHT, however little Mr..
Crothers may relish the unpleasant pros
pect.
