BACK TO WHAT?
Ole Aslaksor

Editor Register:
Today is good roads day as APP
pointed by Gov. Byrne.
The country is at the climax point
in it's present road system, namely,
road taxes paid in money. While a
good deal of fun was poked at some
indolent workers under the old meth
DDS of working out the tax before the
automobile was so common a factor
in the demand of good roads. There
is now a new conundrum and that is
to get the tax dollar to do the work on
the road, any better than the yarn
spinning road tax worker of the olden
times. At the present time the dollar
must be loaing in the county treasury
or in some of the banks. 1t now re-
mains to be seer whether the country
in general will develop a uniformity of
road building out of the money tax or
Just fix a few trunk lines between the
towns and the remaining roads to be
entirely neglected or kept in repair by
the same labor force that formerly
made them as good as they were and
now must do it without money reward.
1t looks with all this cry of Back
to the Farm" and all this good road
talk and poor road appearance and
most everybody drove to death in their
business and in want of help and can't
find any that unconsciously u civil
ization is getting out of balance under
too much freedom in how we employ
our time.
For some time a fighting force has
been in the arena on the question of
prohibition or a mans right to crafty
his appetite OF "drinkatite" al he sees
at.
If the fight on this question results
in proving that the community is the
one to direct individual effort or in
clination rather than the individual
then the way Is clear for the commun-
ity to take into consideration how the
individual uses time regardless Of
whether he has money or not. Our
methods of existence has so changed
from the lone individual Robinson
Cruso style of freedom and responsible
ity to the conglomerate factory and
community style for a unit force that
there is occasion to do some thinking.
Back to temperance and right hv.
ing. back to road work, back to using
ones time to the production Of what
people actually need in place of SO
much folly and empty pleasure are
questions up to u people for q near
BY settlement.
