indianapolis, Oct. 2, 1si2-Impetus
to the tune of 100000, has been
given the proposed Ocean-to-ocean
National Highway by the Good
year Tire & Rubber Company OF
Akron, Ohio. over one million dol
lars has already been pledged, and
some OF the largest makers Of auto
mobiles and accessories have yet
to be heard from.
The plan, as originally outlined
by Carl q. Fisher OF indianapolis
and his associates, provides for
the purchase OF materials for the
building OF stone highway from
New York to San Francisco to be
completed In time for general use
to the Panama Exposition in 1915.
IL will take ten million dollars to
provide 5000 worth OF material
for each mile-but one-tenth Of the
amount has already been secured
and the surface has not been
scratched.
"Wen do IT," says Mr.. Fisher.
"The only thing that I am anxious
about is getting the Job done in
time for the Big Fair"
F. A. Sieberling, President OF
the Goodyear, voices the general
pttitude OF manufacturers toward
the project. "The need OF a Nation
al Highway from coast to coast
said Mr.. Sieberling, "has been so
obvious that it's possibility, In fact
It's almost definite assurance,
seems to be the most natural thing
In the world. The plan proposed

the first practical plan TO my
knowledge, that has been advance

ain pledging its pro-rata of
approximately 100000, the Good
year Tire and Rubber Co. feels
that they have done nothing re-
markable or unselfish. We loot up
on the pledge as a movement on
which we will expect to realize div
idends. The fact that the indus
try is supporting this move argu-
es, to my mind, that the manufac-
turers look upon the project in the
same light.

succeed-it deserves to succeed,

Eat More Dogs in Dresden

Dresden, Oct, 7.-0fficial statis-
tics published in this apparently
flourishing Saxon city show
that the consumption OF horse
flesh and dogflesh Is increasing.
The figures relate to the last four
teen years.
The number OF horses slaughter
ed for human food in 1898 was
1889 and OF dogs so. Last year
1864 horses and 125 dogs wero
slaughtered for food. The gen
erai consumption OF flesh In
Dresden has fallen per capita OF
population from $50 pounds in
1911 to s75 pounds this year. The
fall is, OF course, less noticeable
In the cheaper than In the dearer
qualities.
Friends OF temperance will hear
with pleasure that the per capita
consumption OF beer in the Saxon
capital is steadily declining. In
the last twelve years II has fell
from i33 pints TO $50 pints. II
must be explained, however, tina,
the decrease Is due, not TO the
spread OF the temperance cause
so much as to decrease In the pu;
chasing power OF the people.
