HOW POLK'S GOOD ROADS
MOVEMENT IS VIEWED BY
THE NATIONAL PRESS

That Polk county's efforts to Sc
cure good roads are attracting al
most nation wide attention Is evil
denced by the comment of leading
journals from every section of the
country, all of which commend the
enterprise and progressive spirit
which our people display in their
endeavor to secure this great inn
proyement. The Atlanta Constitu-
tion, one of the most influential and
conservative journals in the country,
reviews the proposition in the fol-
lowing editorial:
Promising that there will not be
one cents increase in taxation to
pay for 1t, Polk county, Florida, is
planning to issue $1,500,000 of
bonds to build 225 miles of good
roads traversing the county in every
possible direction, and connecting at
! six points with other county road
systems.
Good roads enthusiasm in Polk
county has been worked I'D by an GO. 20
sociation organized for the purpose,
under the direction of John s. How
ard, president, and with a commit
tee which includes the foremost citi-
zens of the community. Not only
| have the plans been carefully pre-
pared and every phase of them sub
mitted to the voters in advance of
the election, which takes place June
1, but bids have been secured on the
work, and the association and the
Polk county commissioners are in a
| position to go to the voters acj say
they can do exactly wha: they have
promised with the bond money, he
ginning the work the minute Tie
bonds are voted.

the present rate of taxation by let
ting the natural increase in tax val
uations pay the bills. During the
past five years Polk county tax valu-
ations have increased at the rate OF
% per cent year. II like rate Of
increase is maintained in the future
Polk county will not only pay on
these bonds, but enjoy increased in
come for other county expenses.
And there is no more certain way
to increase tax valuations than by
the building of good roads. There is
not county in Florida. Georgia or
anywhere else in the South but could
do, in proportion to population and
wealth, just what Polk county pro-
poses. There are Just two elements
required to make a success of it. A
desire for substantial progress and
growth, and faith in the community
itself.
Amy county can vote a good roads
bond issue today. build the roads
and take care Of both bonds and in
terest, with money to spare, on the
increased tax valuations. With all
that good roads mean to a commun-
ity, it is surprising that many Of
them have not followed this plan
long since.
