ROAD
BUILDING
EFFECTUAL REPAIR OF ROADS
Continuous Maintenance Keeps High
ways Always In Good Condition
Advantage Self-EVdent,

The need Of effeCtual repair and
maintenance of highways has now be-
come well recognized. The resulting
demand for better methods and more
certain results is insistent. The office
of public roads Of the department or
agriculture is making a strong effort
to focus the mind Of the country on
the fact that maintenance and eff
feCtive repair are of equal Importance
with the actual improvement Of bad
roads. Investment OF money in new
roads does not become real economy
until provision is made for keeping
these new roads IL condition after
they are built, y a new road was
built and then allowed to fall into
disrepair, much Of the original invest
ment is simply wasted.
Europe, generally speaking, is ahead
of the United States in the matter
Of road Improvement, but Great
Britain is struggling with a problem
similar to the one that confronts the
people Of the United States, In Eng
land, Scotland and Wales there are no
fewer than 2,l40 separate authorities
who between them administer 175,4S7
miles Of roads, or an average Of only
so miles apiece, In Scotland, apart
from the big cities there are over 200
burghs, one-half Of which have 10
miles Of road apiece to maintain
Needless to say, such a minute mile
age Is insufficient to keep the road
plant fully occupied all the year
around, and renders the employment
OF a skilled engineer impossible for
economical reasons,
officials OF the Office Of public roads,
when called upon for assistance by
the various staes, are pointing out
that road building 70 an art based on
a science, and that trained men and
experienced men are necessary 70 Sc
cure the best results from the eXpen'
ditUre Of road funds.
Statisticians have found that al.
though the average expenditure on
the Improvement Of roads exceeds one
million dollars q day, large portion
Of the money In the United States Is
wasted because Of the failure to build
the right type Of road to meet the
local requirements or the failure to
provide for the continued maintenance
Of the improvement,
During the last two decades there
has been a remarkable development Of
road building which Is intimately as.

THE BELGIAN MINISTER TO
mexico GIVEN PASSPORTS:
OFFENSIVE NOTES ALLEGED

Mexico CITY, Oct. S1.-Paul May.
Belgian Minister to Mexico, was hand
ed his passports yesterday by Minister
of Foreign Affairs Fabella. Senior Fa-
bella declared he was compelled to take
this course because of certain aggres.
sive and disrespectful notes directed to
the Mexican government by the Belgian
representative.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs
would say nothing regarding the nature
of the correspondence, but it is be-
lieved that the notes referred to the op-
Grafton by the Mexican government of
the property of the Mexico Tramways
Company.
The tramways company is capitalized
at s60, 100000 in gold and a large per-
eentage of the stock is held by the
Belgian capitalists. The Mexican gov
ernment took over the property on Octo-
Der IL, after the employees of the road
had struck demanding an increase in
wages. L was understood at the time
that the roads would be operated by the
government for fifteen DAYS. but the
government says much longer period
Will be necessary before an adjustment
can be accurately made.
Belgian capital tG the extent of S50.-
100000 also is interested because of
railway concessions that had been Civ
en- during the Huerta regime.

n BELATED ELECTORS
REGISTER ON LAST DAY
Total Number of Qualified Voters in
City Now Stands at 1875, Which
Breaks ALI Records-Books Ready
for Election Boards

The city registration books for voters
were closed by the County Commission
ers at noon to-day and were hacked
up preparatory to being sent to the
election boards on Monday. Seventy
-FOUR voters who either were i'll or un-
avoldably absent from the city on the
regular registration days made applica.
tlon for registration to the Commits
sioners this morning. Their names were
approved, so that the city registration
now totals 1875, the largest in the
history of Harrisburg. Half a dozen
or more additional applicants failed to
give proper proof that they had paid
State or county tax within the last
two years and their registration ap-
piications were rejected In two in
stances the applicants were Harrisburg
ers who are working out of the city.
The Commissioners will not again
meet to consider these applications be.
fore the election on Tuesday. so that
all voters who are not now registered
will be barred from voting.
The fact that a number of new cleo
tion precincts were created in the city
within the last year, due to the division
VI eeNeEal large dlstrlcts, Will, 1t is be-
lieved, have the effect of facilitating
earlier complete returns on election
night, although the county and city Off
cials are of the opinion that the returns
will be late for other reasons. This
theory is based upon the belief that
few electors will vote straight party
ticket.
Danphin county to-day has close on
to $4,000 qualified electors and it is
the belief that the largest vote in the
county's history will be rolled up at
the Tuesday election. this being due to
the fact that the partisan candidates
have aroused extraordinary interest
among the voters and also because the
Dauphin county electors generally are
eager to give Judge Kunkel, the non
partisan candidate for Judge of the Su-
preme Court, the largest vote possible.

SHE OFFERS CAR

Parents Decline to Accept Her Assist
ance, but the Child Is Sent to Hos
pital in Cab-Death Comes in Three
Hours

While walking across Third street,
at Harris at noon to-day, John Me-
Cormick, years old, son of j. H. Me-
Cormiek, S34 Harris street, trainmas-
ter for the Cumberland Valley railroad,
in this city, was knocked down by an
automobile driven by Mrs. Alma Keane
who conducts grocery store at 524
Maclay street.
A woman friend of the Mccormick
family saw the accident and picking
the boy up in her arms carried him to
his home. There the parents of the
boy refused to permit him to be taken
to hospital when Mrs. Keane offered
her automobile as conveyance. Later
on advice of physicians the boy was
taken to the Polytechnic hospital, at
Front and Harris streets.
According to the physician, the boy
was suffering from concussion of the
brain, caused when his head hit the
street. He may also have fracture of
the skull near the base. He was uncon-
seious when taken to the hospital and
it was planned to operate. The child
had also deep laceration across the
bridge of the nose and lacerations of
the legs and arms.
The automobile, big touring car.
was slowly going north in Third street
when the boy is said to have stepped
OFF the curb directly in its path. He
was knocked heavily to the Street and
away from the machine and according
to witness was not run over by the
automobile which was stopped by its
driver as soon as the accident occurred.
Mrs. Keane was so unnerved by the
accident that she seemed unable to run
her car again and Walter Yocum, a
chauffeur of S1S Clinton street, climbed
into the drivers seat and drove the
car to the child's home where Mrs.
Keane offered to take the victim to
the hospital. When the offer was re-
jected he drove the car away for Mrs.
Keane.
Physicians hurriedly summoned to
the Mccormick home realized the Sc
robustness of the injury and cab was
called to convey the boy to the Poly
clinic hospital.

PAUL ERB is Stronger
Burnt Boy Cheered By Fact That Skin
Grating Operation Was q
Success

After a restless night, following a
skin grating operation in which TWEEN
tyfour pieces of skin were removed
from the body of Stewart G. Forney,
2 years old, 434 Harris street, to the
burned hip of Paul Sidney Erb, 236
Charles street, the latter is brighter
to-day. He moves about little and
seems cheered by the fact that the
operation which will hasten his reeov-
cry, was successful.
More than half the burned surface
of the young boy S right hip, which was
burned by "sparklers' on July 8, was
covered with the transferred skin. For
ney submitted himself for the operation
without taking an anaesthetic. The skin
was grated to the leg of the Erb boy.
About sixteenth of an inch of flesh
was removed with the skin.
Forney did not seem any the
worse for his ordeal and last night
was able to leave his home for
a short while. Forney will submit
himself to another operation of this
kind in two weeks, when the entire
burned surface will be covered.
