STREET PAVING IN JAPAN.
Modern Methods Practically Unknown
Throughout the Country.

According to a report from United
States Consul General Skidmore, mod
ern street paving is as yet practically
unknown throughout Japan. The usu-
al japanese street has no sidewalk
pavements, and no attempts have been
made to provide separate roadways
for pedestrians outside the business
districts of the more important cities.
These streets have no artificial paw
ings, they are usually macadamized in
as cheap way as possible and are
shockingly bad at all times of the year

is usually out of order.
In Yokohama few Of the business
streets have cement sidewalks, but
none of the, streets is paved Yoko-
hama has population ofabout AGO.
600 and street mileage about equal to
that Of any city of like population in
the United States.
A few experiments in street paving
have been carried on In Tokyo under
supervision Of the city authorities, but
only a scant three miles have so far
been paved. and this paving has BEEN
done with wooden blocks coated with
very thin covering OF asphalt. The
streets so paved are already showing
signs of hard wear.
The main business street of Tokyo,
the Ginzadori, the Broadway Of ia
pan, has cement sidewalks on both
sides of the main roadway. The Gin
"a is a broad street and has large
traffic. The laying of cement side
walks in Tokyo is gradually being ex-
tended and viii undoubtedly be great
ly augmented as the plan for widen
ing the streets Of the capital is gradu-

traffic of all kinds, especially motor
traffic, is playing havoc with the road
ways, and the necessity for more dur

more apparent to the authorities. All
the streets now paved with cement

Department Of Agriculture Aiding Local
Road Building.

The purpose OF a study undertaken
by the department Of agriculture is to
discover the points OF excellence and
defects In existing local methods of
building and maintaining roads. which
will aid the state authorities to put To-
cal road management on systematic
ed basis. The cooperating state au-
thorities have been asked to designate
counties that present typical and ex-
ceptional features as to topography,
character of road materials, methods
Of construction and maintenance. adj
ministrative organization. methods Of
road financing and traffic conditions.
This investigation Is prompted by
the fact that there is at present very
little knowledge as TO the most effec-
tive and economical methods by which
a county can develop its roads. At
present the methods OF financing local
road improvements vary from calling
on farmers for certain number Of
days labor In lieu Of road tax or
the use of county prisoners In road
construction to bond issues or main
tenance Of roads from dramshop H.
cense funds.
The department will study all OF
these systems with the view to deter
mining what system or combination Of
systems works best in actual practice.
There is, moreover. at present no
standard system OF keeping accounts
for road building and maintenance,
and as result, while some counties
know to penny the purpose for which
money was spent others have no
definite check or reporting system.
Among various counties with the same
conditions cost for excavation or other
labor Is anything but uniform. and
many counties, because of the absence
Of definite knowledge, fail to use local
and cheap materials and construct
roads which are unnecessarily expen-
sive for their purpose or which will
wear out before the bond issues are re-
deemed. The investigation will include
careful study of the use OF convict
labor In road construction.
The heads Of state highway depart
ments are manifesting great interest
and are cooperating cordially in this
work. The data. when obtained, will

Willing to Pay Vet in JaiI.

There's a man working out a fine and costs which will keep him in the Litchfield jail for about a month be- cause he failed to pay his personal tax bill to the Torrfngton collector. In court he offered the judge the amount Of the tax and promised to pay the rest as soon as he got a job, but the court had not choice other than to send the man to jail. The personal tax law Is one of the few laws which Connecticut has that permits no one to escape. once he is arrested.-Water- bury, Republican.
 That's funny. Is it not possible that the delinquent offered the money to the wrong person. The judge of a court Is not authorized to collect the personal tax and the Torrington gen. tleman had no business to offer him the amount of the bill. There have been any number of cases brought in- to court for non-payment of the per- sonal tax in various places and in practically all of the instances the amount was paid in the court room and the criminal part of the proceed fngs ceased. Just why that was done in Torrington is difficult to say. It is certainly peculiar that there should be a man in the Litchfield county jail with money in his pocket ready and willing to pay his personal tax and there is no one to take 1t from him and give him his liberty.
