his way to Mississippi to testify before

will prove of great value to the federal
authorities as he has been working on
the train robbery for several months and
is familiar with every phase of the stua-
ton. He planned and executed the gath
ering of evidence against the EMS broth
ers and Lewis. and also ordered the cap

better but at the same time he was in
fine shape for work.
Mr.. Exum spent the larger part of his
time while away from the city automo-
bling. He states the party travelled hun
dreds of miles in the New England and
central states in Mr. Exum's big car and
that the remarkable part of the trip was
the exceptionally good roads. I'VE ought
to have roads like that down here" said
Mr.. Exum, "and the sooner we get to
work and build them the better off will
be the state. We didn't have a single

"Those roads up there are not wide,
but they are good. The road is made
by putting in a foundation of crushed

no inconvenience. Roads like that means
thousands of dollars to any community In
many different ways. We encountered
many and mary people touring the coun. .
try just as we were"
