WOMAN IS BIG FACTOR
IN ELECTRIC AUTOS
She Does Not Enter Into Me-
chanicaI Discussion
of Car.

Cars is cars as Ellis Parker Butler
would say. yet this deduction would be
Inconsistent If we We're to take into con-
sideration the selling of the cars said a
local electric car salesman yesterday.
The preparatory work for the sale is
the same, but in the small items they diff
fer radically; one is sold on beauty and a
social necessity, while the main features
of the other are strength and power.
True, the electric must possess strength
and power in addition to beauty and Its
ability to care for the transportation
wants of the woman of society. yet these
points are seldom. if ever, presented as a
part of an electric car sales argument.
1T isn't a question of the horsepower
rating, nor how fast will II go, put Is
there sufficient room to care for the per-
sons to be carried-do the lines please!
Salesman Too Technical.
The woman takes for granted that the
electric car possesses all the merltorlous
points necessary to make it the venice
she desires and because of that does not
enter into conversation regarding the me
chanical qualities that should be there
In selling a gasoline car the salesman
must enter into a mechanical discussion
regarding the relative merits OF MS cat

Wide Field of Usefulness.

OeS- ~---~~0'
Whether direct appropriations for
road work may he made by the state or
not there is wide field for state use
fulness in connection with highway I'M
provcment There should be. believe in
every state a highway commission
charged with the general duty of promot-
ing the improvement of the country high
ways of the state. Competent supervision
is essential TO the best results either i'll
road construction or maintenance. III all
of the money that has been spent on the
country highways of our states had been
wisely expended and if all the work that
has been done had been most intelligently
applied. we should have a much better
system of highways than at present At
this time. when there is a widespread and
constantly growing appreciation OF the
benefits of good roads, we should pront by
the mistakes of the past
"Ail work should be planned and carried
out under the supervision of skilled high
way engineers. ] think that wherever II
Is practice Bile each county should EN-
ploy a competent road engineer, under.
whose direction all of the work done on
all of the roads in the county should be
carried on. For planning and supervising
IA macadam road or any other type of
highly improved highway the services of
such an engineer are essential to secur-
ing the best results. | believe. however,
that we may also render valuable service
to the county in directing and supervising
the Improvement and maintenance of
those roads which are not Immediately to
he highly improved In all of this work
the county engineer should keep in touch
with the state highway commission and
its engineers. and should have the benefit
OF their advice and cooperation. In coun-
ties of limited resources the expense of
the employment of a competent engineer
might be such as to use up an unduly
large proportion of the money available
for road work and the amount of work
to be done might not be sufficient 10 take
up all of his time.
I'm situations such as this the engineers
of the state highway commission might,
under some suitable financial arrange
ment with the counties. directly take
charge OF planning and supervising road
construction and maintenance. BY having
all OF the working gangs In charge of
would probably be able efficiently TO
supervise the work i'll group OF such
counties.
~ state highway commission. with it's
cooperative engineering forces, could
also be highly useful in the collection OF
information to the different types of
roads being constructed in all parts of
the United States and in foreign coun-
tries, and thus be prepared to advise as
to the type best suited for each locality,
taking into account the character of
traffic TO be hauled on the road. the
money to be expended and the road-buld-
ing materials available.

GOOD ROADS MEAN
MUCH TO COUNTRY
Are Essential to Prosperity,
Says President W. W. Finley.
URGES USE OF CONVICTS
IN HIGHWAY BUILDING
State and Federal Governments
Should Get Together,
He Says.

Nation state and country each has a
proper relation to the Improvement of the
country highways" is the opinion of W.
w Finley. president of the Southern rail
way.
Good country highways are so essential
to the highest development of prosperity
especially in agricultural communities.
that in my opinion the Improvement OF
these highways in any state so directly
concerns all of the people that the state
government may properly share In the
work of road Improvement Generally
speaking the country is the unit IN all
matters Of road construction and mainte-
nance Participation In the work by the
stat,. need not necessarily disarrange TINS
system on the contrary, some of the
states which are expending considerable
sums annually on their country highways
apportion the money among the counties,
which are required 10 make contributions
bearing a fixed relation to the amount OF
state aid extended. The character ana
extent of state aid will depend. In large
measure upon circumstances. The best
results may he attained where a direct ap-
nropriaflon of state funds for road con-
strjit.tion can b. made. The apportionmeHt
of this among the counties on the basis OF
a fixed ratio to county expenditures Will
stimulate the raising OF funds Tor road
