Lack 10 in Good Roads.
Hard roads in Iowa would traverse
the most wonderful agricultural coun-
try in the world, irrespective Of the d.
rection the road might take. You would
never be out Of sight Of highly de-
veloped farms, modern farm houses
and school houses and other indica-
lions not only of permanent habita-
ton, but Of comfort and happiness.
Let us get busy at once in Iowa, adopt
a definite hard roads policy and then
take up some definite projects, and 90
business. The money we are paying
now for road betterment in Iowa. not
only would pay interest on $30,O0o,OOo
worth of bonds, but would provide
sinking fund that ultimately would pay
off the bonds and provide funds for up
keep.
