President Brannon of the
University of Idaho Says
the State Must Build for
the Future.
GUEST AT LUNCHEON
OF BUSINESS MEN
Ovation Given the Retiring
Head of Leading Educa-
tional institutional. T.
Lewis Speaks on Exten-
sion Work of University.

That Idaho has just passed through
its great pioneer stage and can now be
compared with a group of islands, sep
arated by a gulf each community being
interested in its own peculiar problems
and welfare and failing as state in
the whole to have "a program for each
section and the betterment of all, was
the idea advanced in scholarly ad
dress by DIR. NJ A. Brannon, president
Of the University of Idaho. to a large
gathering of business men at the noon
day luncheon today at the Boise Com
mercal club rooms.
DR. Brannon pointed out that the
state of Idaho was a diversified state,
that it's sections were different that
the mining belts were of a different
character in different parts, that agri-
culture and horticulture were carried
on differently and while such was the
case it was necessary to have men
big enough ana broad enough to get
together and mae out a 50year pro-
gram for the benefit of the entire
state.
In Idaho, he declared n construct
i've program must be mapped out and
followed if the state is to advance and
grow. because if the sectional feeling
grows up and thrivcs it will straugle
business, hinder advancement and en-
slave its citizens and also the children.
He then announced that the state board
of education had mapped out a plan
in education in Idaho for the next 10
years. He urged the citizens of Idaho
% get together and map out plan for
80 years ahead with view in mind al
WAYS of greater and more progress

NOTICE TO ALL WOMEN RED
CROSS MEMBERS.

The Lefore County Chapter A. r. G.
now has over 200 pairs pajamas cut
out and ready for making, and urges
every woman member of the chapter
who can sew to come to the old Bern
stein building on Howard street and
make n pair there under the direc-
ton of a teacher, and after that they
.an take a pair home and make them.
These supplies we are making are to
he used in the hospitals abroad for u
own wounded American soldiers when
they are needed. Keeping these sup
,lies up is the women's part of the
war and makes the work of the Red
Cross Army truly a gigantic one, and
means that we must be at it now and
keep constantly at it until this war is
)ver.
On account of the difficulty of gett-
ing the raw material abroad the bulk
of these supplies must come from
America. In a letter, Eliot Wads-
worth, acting chairman of the A. K. 9.
to the Memphis Chapter, gives in the
following figures the amount OF sup
plies greatly needed by our allies.
$4,000 bath robes, or convalescent
gowns.
100000 pairs of bed socks.
100000 h~andkerchiefs.
100000 hospital bed shirts.
100000 suits of pajamas.
100000 shoulder wraps.
100000 pairs of socks.
100000 pairs of ward slippers.
These figures give US some idea OF
the great task before us.
Red Cross headquarters are now
open at the old Bernstein building, anc
hours from 9 a. m. until II NJ, anc
from 8 p. m. until 6 p. m. We neee
. your help Prove your patriotism ane
come.
THE WORK COMMITTEE.
The daily commonwealth. (Greenwood, Leflore Co., Miss.) 1916-1919, 1917-07-28

50 cents annually for each car. In
Texas and South Carolina no annual
registration fees are collected, the only
requirement being a county fee OF 90
cents and 81 respectively for perennial
registration. Most Of the states, how
ever, also levy annual taxes on motor
vehicles and this adds Importantly to
the public revenue contributed by the
owners Of motor-propelled vehicles.
In the use Of fees, however, there
seems to be a general policy of apply
ing the major part Of the money col
lected from automobilists directly to
road betterment. In AZ of the states
Of the Union all or the major portion
Of the m%otor-vehicle revenue must be
expended for the construction, I'm.
provement, or maintenance of the pub
lie roads, OF for the'maintenance Of the
! state highway department. In 20
; states, all or the major portion Of the
net motor.vehicle revenues are ex-
pended by or under the supervision or
direction Of the state highway depart
ment. In seven states one-haf to one
fourth Of the state m~otor-vehicle rev.
enues are expended through the state
F., highway'department, and the remand
er by the local authorities. Many
states, in addition to applying license
, fees to road construction expend for
! this purpose a large part Of the fines
and penalties collected from owners.
+, In the number Of registrations New
York state led in 1915 with 255,242
Illinois was second with 1882; Cali
fornia third with 163,797; and Penn
sylvania fourth with 160,137.

MONEY FOR IMPROVED ROADS
eixteen Million Dollars in Auto Fees
Spent for Building and Ma'nte'
nance During 1919.

fFrom the United States Department Oh
Agriculture.)
Ninety per cent Of the registration
and license fees paid in 1915 by ATTIC
mobilists to the states, or $~16,2l3,3S''
was spent for the building and main
tenance of county and state roads, ac-
cording to a compilation just published
by the office of public roads, u. >. de-
pnrtment of agriculture. In all, 2,44o'-
GA motor vehicles were registered IN
that year and their owners paid a TO-
tai of ~$1S,245.713 for registrations ana
drivers and dealers licenses. This IS
an increase of $5,s63, 76O over 1914, and
an increase of 734,325 in the number
Of vehicles registered. AutomoDlie
fees now defray nearly Z per cent OF
the total amount spent on rural ROAD
and bridge building, whereas In l9oo
the income from this source was less
than three-tenths Of l per cent OF the
total expenditure.
The growth Of the volume of fees
and registrations is noted by the fact
that in 1901 New York, the first state
to REQUIRE fees, collected only 1884. In
1909 only $4,000 cars were registered
throughout the entire United States.
By 1915, however, the number had
jumped to the figure given, so that
there is slightly more than n motor
car registered for each Of the 2,375,OoO
miles of road outside Of the incorpor-
ated towns and cities.
The relation between cars and road
mileage varies widely in different sec
tons. There is only n motor car for
every six miles of rural road In Ne
vada, but nearly six motor cars for
e mile of such road in New Jersey.
There is an average Of n motor cal
registration for every A persons In
the United States. Iowa apparently
leads, however, with one motor car fol-
every 16 persons, while only one fol-
every 200 persons is registered for Ala
bama.
It must be understood, however, tina
the figures of registration do not ne
cessarily represent a total number o.
cars, as some of the states do not re
uuire annual registration, others groul
pleasure and commercial cars and mo
torcycles in their accounts, while still
other states do not require registra
ton Of motorcycles.
There Is great inequality In the reg
istratlon fees charged by the differen
states. The average for the Unite'
. States was $7.46. The state Of Ver
