PAVE LINCOLN HIGHWAY
WITH BRICK IN ILLINOIS
Proposed That Iowa Follow Example

Council BiuHs-Other Organizations
Endorse Plan.
necial to Timcs-Republican

Special to Times RepuDliCan.
Clinton, Jan. 25.-The Clinton COM
mercial Club has adopted resolutions
favoring a permanent highway across
the entire state Of Iowa and recon-
mends that steps be taken to realize
such highway.
Copies of the resolution have been
sent to the state highway commission
tUGovernor Harding, to every town or
5000 inhabitants or more. located on
the Lincoln highway between Clinton
and Council Bluffs, and to every com
mercial club in Iowa affiliated with the
Chamber of Commerce Of the United
States Of America.
1t is proposed to have the highway
connect with the permanent hard sur
faced road which is to be built across
a point on the Mississippi river OPP
posite Clinton, following the Lincoln
highway.
The state OF Illinois and the six in
tervening counties between Chicago
and Clinton have provided for bond is
sues, which with federal road aid
money, IS to be used tn paving the
Lincoln highway with brick the entire
distance from the metropolis to this
city, the work to commence in the
spring Of 1918. with about forty miles
of city paving already down at various
points along the highway, the entire
distance to be paved will be approx
mately 100 miles.
For Future Traffic.
The growing Importance Of the high
ways in handling the traffic Of the ma
ton especially in the face of con-
stantly increasing congestion Of the
railways, Is becoming more widely
realized, and the local club feels that
at this time the money could not bs
spent to greater advantage or for tsc
benefit Of a greater number Of people.
The plan has been heartily endorsed
in letters received by the Clinton conf
mercial club from Dubuque. Fort
Madison. Fort Dodge. Des 'Moines ana
other points.

DEATH eLow>To clTvs
INDUSTRIES.
EASTERN IOWA CITIES
GAIN Big ADVANTAGES
New Hampton Enjoys Short Haul
Which Makes Rates y Cents Below
That on Freisht From Mason City
Other Iowa Towns May Suffer, AItho
Some Are Benefited.

Mason City, Jan. 25.--Ncw freight
rates under a new coming for interior
Iowa cities which have been won by
the railroads under the rulings of the
interstate commerce commission will
work a hardship to Mason City IL they
are not corrected and one which will
strike death blow to all Industries
in this city. The situation is so dam
gerous, according to f. o. Younger
man, traffic manager Of the Mason
City Brick & Tile Company, that un-
less something Is done it will mean
that Mason City will practically be
put out Of business.
The short haul on freight between
Mason City and Chicago and the ILL
nois Indiana state line by the way OF
Prairie du Chen, is not .classed as an
official crossing, while all cities south
ard east of here in Iowa received the
benefit Of the crossings at Clinton, Du-
buque, Savannah and Davenport.
AS an illustration, New Hampton
enjoys short haul on the Groat West
ern from Dubuque and has a rate from
the Illinois -dndiana line which Is 10
cents less than the Mason City rate
Of '43 cents. The situation is such
that Mr.. Youngerman says that the
International Harvester Company cCnld
abandon its Building here. build an
other at New Hampton, ship goods to
Mex Hampton and then rebill them to
Mason City and make money by the
action This would still be much cheap
err than shipping direct to this. city.
Some Cities Benefited.
Charles City, just few miles east
of here, enjoys a rate Of 80 cents or II
cents less than the Accent rate to
Mason City. While the greater NUM-
Der Of cities have received decrease
by the new change Mason City has re-
ceived an increase and the now rate
is scent boost from the old rate Of
38 cents. Cher cities which were given
reductions from their old rates are
Fort Dodge, cents less; Des ,Mones,
IS cents less, while Waterloo and Ce-
dar Rapids are also given reductions.
The situation is the most serious Of
any kind that the city has ever been
called ON to meet and the. immediate
and concerned action Of every business
organization in the city is needed to dn
something and stop the change before IT
appears in the new printed tariffs which
are in formation at the present timA
according to Mason City shippers.
Mr.. Youngerman and r. l.. Ellis.
Of the Decker plant, have telegraphed
objections to the interstate commerce
commission. but they are anxious to
see business men and manufacturers
here help fight the rate boost.
