PRICE BOOST DOCTORS
ELECTION FIGHT THREAT

LURAY, Va, May Physicians
of Scott county have hit on a novel
way of aiding in the coming election
to commit the county to the author
ization of a heavy bond issue for
the building of good roads.
They have announced that il the
election goes adversely and the peo-
pie of the county do not recognize
the need for better highways, they
will be compelled to double their
prices for professional services. The
doctors contend that the inadequate
and unsafe roads render travel dan
gerous to themselves and their horses
and that their carriages are quickly
ruined by the rough usage.
