Of real or fanced sins Of omission

your telegram of even date here.
with as follows: al request that
you forwal to me Immediately
your resignation as a membc. OF the
board Of regents Of the New Mexico
College Of Agriculture and Mechan-

This request for my resignation
undoubtedly grows out of the fail
urs of the First State Bank of this
place and the fact that the funds
of the New Mexico College of Agri-
culture and Mechanic Arts were on
deposit there In my name as secre-
tary'treasurer. The effect of your
action is to single me out of the

CAN MANUFACTURE
SURFACE FOR ROADS
Small Rock Crusher Should
be Purchased by Commits
sioners for Benefit of Our
County Highways
SOUTHERN HIGHWAY SHOULD
PASS THROUGH CARRIE 0ZO

Within a few days a gang Of men
will be put to work on the Nogal
hill for the purpose Of repairing the
damage done to the road by the re
cent rains and SHOWS This is the
custom pursued by the county
commissioners and road board of
Lincoln county, and for this reas on
the roads in this county are ut all
times in condition for travel. While
ST times they are pretty rough, this
is not the fault Of the overseers Of
these highways, it is the fault Of The
scarcity Of money when the miles
of road in this county is considered
The Outlook believes it would
pay the county to purchase small
stone crusher and use it at the var.
ious points where stone is plen tiful
for the purpose Of manufacturing
material for our roads IL would
pay for itself within @ short time
II would give us better roads, where
they are already above the average
ana this advertisement would ma.
terially help everyone in the county
In this connection IL may be said
that there is only one re oil solution
to the proposed National Southern
Highway thrcSgh this state, and
that is to either make ii in two
branches from II ondo to Tularosa
and route 1t through Carrizozo and
south along the Southwestern rail-
way The present plan is to take
it down the Ruidosa, through Dark
Conyon aud over the Mescalero re.
servation. There is not more
beautiful road in existence today
than this road when it is passable.
Unfortunately. IL is not a feasible
route at all seasons OF the year
particularly during the winter
months. This being the case, this
association should designate the
route from Hondo through Lin
coin and Captain to Carrizozo az
an optional route south. This road
is rarely ever impossible and il is
supplied along the route with gaso-
line stations and stores and hotels
thus aifording accommodations for
the tourists and supplies for their
machines. The Outlook is not
knocking" the route through the
Ruidosa section. We are ,or IL.
But we know, from interviews had
with travellers over that section OF
tbe road during the pas few weeks
that IL will be vastly better for the
success of the National Southern
Highway II the tourists are given
the facts and not routed over this
section at times when the joys Of
motoring give way to the hardest
kind OF work In getting over the
road. Always in such instances. the
knockers" made are Of the most
approved pattern aud Of the latest
possible style. And they are ex-
pertly industrious in telling fellow
motorists Of their troubles. The
National Southern Highway thru
New Mexico can be made one of
the most delightful trips extant II
ID will be given these optional
routes from Hondo to Tularose,

tory request"
Mr.. Lester's letter to the chief
executive Of the state deplores the
lack Of interest taken in the Agri-
cultural College by the officers Of
the beard, declaring that, in his
opinion, the best work cannot be
expected when the board meetings
are so infrequent and so little attsn-
tion is paid to the college work
Looking back over a period ol
about two years during which time

ricultural college as a regent, Says
Mr.. Lester. II feel very strongly
that the interests of the college
have suffered because our board has
met so infreqently and has been So
little in touch with the work OF
the institution Although very ra-
dica changes have been made IN the
institution the number Of meetings
that have been held has been far
less than in normal times "
Referring to the failure Of the
bank, and the consequent tieing up
of tho college funds, Mr. Lester
says: The present condition OF
the First State Bank at Las Cruces
would never have come about II
the directors had had personal
knowledge Of the workings OF the
bank In the same way feel that
present conditions in the college
would he greatly improved had our
board been more personally In
touch with the work Of the inslitu
ton "
The brief extracts from the letters
above given, show that in February
of last year the condition of the
First State Bank of Las Cruces was
not complying with the state bank
ing laws aud regulations, and that
this fact was known to the COVER
nor, the travelling auditor and state
bank examiner and to the secretary

The South Bend penchant,-and not
only South Bend, but the state of In
diana, and the United States of Amer
ica,-for promoting some new piece Of
legislation TO crow about. every time
some reform is needed, is having the
nonsense of such propaganda exposed
just now in the aftermath OF the East
land disaster.
After the Eastland tipped over,
Secy Redheld of the department OF
commerce and labor. lamented that
there was no provision or authority
for the governmental testing OF a yes
sells construction. The supremely
important question of stability had
been left TO the discretion Of designer
and shipbuilder. The government
had no right to inquire whether it was
likely to topple over.
Now, however. Sec'y Redfield has
issued an order remedying that defect
All federal inspectors are told TO re-
quire owners of vessels whose stability
they have any reason to question to
make 'inclining' tests such as are
made for warships. under the superW-
sion of expert naval architects provid-
ed by the department of commerce.
No new shipping laws have been
passed in the meantime. The govern
ments powers are precisely what they
were before. What has happened is
simply this: The secretary of COM
merce. once recognizing the urgent
need OF such inspection, has found
that, after all, his department can
provide it without breaking any laws.
It's usually that way. In spite OF
the American maria for specific legis-
lation. a really necessary reform can
usually be accomplished without re-
sorting to the passage of new laws. AL
that is needed in most cases is the in
telligent determination To run things
right and make the most of existing
laws In all too many cases, pro
meters of new laws are more inter
ested in making a big noise than
they are in real reform. and. too. il
frequently happens, that when the law
is passed. its promoters fall back or
their laurels. satisfied To presume the
reform is effected without further ef.
