EXTRACT FROM INTERVIEW
WITH SENATOR r. F.
BROUSSAND

| have been made Committee O.
Post Offices and Post Roads. Thl:
has been a welcome assignment II
view of the new field Of activlt!
that is just opening for that Com
mittee. For many years past the
work of this Senate Committee was
largely occupied with mail contract;
entered into between the Govern
ment and the railroads, and with
the conformation of postmasters ap-
pointed by the President. But it is
on the threshold of an entirely diff
ferent line of activity. Without
wishing to discuss the wisdom of the
change, the Postoffice Department
has Just announced it's intention Of
placing all Postmasters under the
Civil Service, thus relieving the
Committee of vast amount of
time and labor should this policy be
adhered to.
It is the general belief in Con-
eressional circles that the improve
ment and extension of Post Roads
Of the different States will at an
early date become one of the prin-
cipals fields of Federal activity.
The automobile has entirely chang
ed the life of the American people.
In every section of the country
there is a united effort to improve
the highways. The people have
been seized with passion to travel
and make use Of them.
While it required years to recon-
Gle Congress to a policy of internal
waterway improvements, largely be-
cause of the fact that the people re-
moved from the rivers raised the
cry Of the sectional legislation, yet,
the movement to improve the high
ways has encountered little or no
opposition. A beginning was made
in the last Congress with an appro-
priation of $75,000,000 extending
over a period of five years. If this
be the starter, it is easy to under
stand that in few years the River
and Harbor work will be small in
deed when compared with the i'm
provement of the post roads of the
country. In this connection it is in
teresting to recall that the very first
rural mail delivery service in the
United States, officially known in
the Post Office Department as Route
No. 1, was established out of
Thibodaux.
No State in the entire Union is SO
dependent upon system Of improv-
ed highways as our own. AS the
delta of the immense Mississippi
Valley the lower part of Louisiana
is naturally difficult and expensive
to drain, and this is the only reason
why large areas of her incompara-
bly, fertile lands have so long re-.
NAMED unclaimed
The problem is not difficult of So
luton, however, if only the means
are to hand to provide the remedy.

Since the local Y. N. basketball team
disposed Of W. < J. and Ohio lnlVer-
stty. local people are beginning TO real
ira that Wheeling at last has an un-
usnally good floor team which has &he
OPPORTUNITY Of making name for Itself,
not only locally. but nationally. FOR
tenrnS with nationwide regulations Will
appear on the local floor. and II the
boys will get down to hard work and
develop some semblance OF teamwork.
the writer does not hesitate to predict
a wonderfully successful season. Each
man on the squad Is certainly a quail
ned basketball player. That was seen
when tho locals won their two games
purely through individual playing:
Practically all Of the men are in good
condition. but the fac. remains that the
team does not work together as IT
should. and If the players do not put In
more time practtctns. they certainly
will receive some jolts from teams to
be seen here later.
Already the team has proven an ad-
rertiser to the 7. NJ. and 70 the city.
INQUIRIES for games have been received
from many organizations throughout
this state, Ohio and Pennsylvania. but
H. was impossible to close for any ad-
dittonal games. Local people. too. as
stated above. are beginning to sit up
and take notice. FOR the attendance at
the nrst two games was larger than at
any 7. NJ. &. y. game ever played here
tofore, and it Is expected the Y. ". will
have all the crowd II can handle Thurs
day evening when the crack Iudepend-
SntJ Of Pittsburgh appear here.
