County Says That State VIII
Now Come Out of the Mud

The tremendous favorable vote
given the proposed constitutional
amendment which will permit the
state to boWow S5O,000,00O for road
purposes is attributed by the Asso-
ciated Highways Organization of
Pennsylvania, which backed the prop
osition. to the fact that the state at
large has tired of unpermanent main
roads. Figures received by the as
sociated highways show the Yes
votes to have been nearly 100000
more than the Noes.
"The approval of the amendment
by the voters of Pennsylvania is
complete evidence that the people of
this Commonwealth are progressive"
said Ex-senator John S. Fisher, of
Indiana. president of the associated

to borrow money and build highways

Pennsylvania will have the best
highway system in America within

Transportation facilities will be i'm
proved and there will be great i'm
provement in economic conditions"
DR.. p. T. Johnson, of Erie, vice.
president of the associated highways,
declared that the vote Tuesday plain
ly evidenced that Pennsylvanians
are tired of their many meandering
miles of mudways.
"The vote means that the people
have learned that good roads are an
economic necessity. Almost every
county in the state has reversed it's
attitude of 1913. when the bond is
sue was defeated by 41,000 votes"
II the war is over before the legis-
lative sessions of 1919 end the con-
stitutional amendment providing that
the state may borrow money will be
put through by the state Senate and
House. Not all the S50.000.000 bonds

to check the spread of influenza
and forbade all meetings and closed
theaters, saloons, schools, churches
and other places where crowds are
apt to gather and stopped the sale

counties adjacent to Philadelphia
followed.
Since that time DR.. Roger has
gradually lifted the ban in counties

death rate.
The imposition of the ban led to
q controversy with Lancaster where
an absolute quarantine was astab-
lished for the first time under the
act of 1905 and with city officials OF
Pittsburgh.

ACCIDENT LIST
GROWING LARGE
Fears That Some Youths May
Be Among Those Who Have
Met With Cumming Hurts

Considerable apprehension Is being
felt here among men interested in
game that in the number of hunt
ing accidents which are being re-
of youths. Through known mishaps
ported here will be found a number
such as have occurred in Dauphin
county. One county treasurer has
insisted upon using his own discre-
tion as to issuance of hunters Ii
censes to persons under eighteen or
nineteen. The law allows licenses
to be issued to persons over four
teen provided parents give consent
when required. In the single case
reported the county treasurer has
turned down some Juvenile appli-
cants as not qualified to carry fire.
arms.
The number Of hunters licenses is
sued thus far has been large. In a
dozen or more counties the supply has
been sold out and new licenses have
been asked. However. Allegheny.
which issued the largest number last
year. has not been heard from. Coun-
ties like Philadelphia, York, Butler,
Washington, Erie, Lawrence and
%NNANN nave dShCu IdkS.
Allegheny issued 21,500 last year.
The reports on the hunting sea-
son are all favorable. The State Game
Commission has heard reports of
good pheasant and quail shooting
where the birds were cared for,
while the State Fisheries Depart
ment reports are that many bass and
salmon have been taken and that
there are plenty of wild ducks on the
streams. The Fishery authorities
are sending out trout again and will
continue planting until the weather
closes the streams. The trout dis
trihuted this fall have been the sub
| ject of some complimentary letters.
In some sections of the state sports
men have asked that the state make
game distribution and purchase
quail and pheasants for next year.
Rabbits have been abundant and
squirrels have been shot by the
| thousand.
Dr. Joseph Kalbfus, secretary of
the Game Commission, says there
are many wild turkeys and that the
season, which starts Friday, should
be good. He is also hopeful of good
deer and bear hunting. Many bear
have been seen in mountain counties.
