FLORIDA GOOD ROADS

The good roads idea is strong in
Florida and growing stronger. 1t is
a common thing now for county to
bond itself to build good highways.
The most popular roads in the State
are Velvet (asphalU highways" Polk
County has system of such roads
that cover 2S9 miles, at cost of
about 100000. They are the de.
light of everyone. They connect
continuously all parts of this great
county Many automobiles and other
vehicles are rolling over them all the
time.
Outside of Polk County the asphalt
road goes as far south as Miami, from
Jacksonville in the far northern part
of the State.

NO NEED FOR ATTORNEYS TO
COLLECT SOLDIER INSURANCE

The Secretary Of the Treasury has
announced that neither the soldiers
sailors, nor their dependents or any
beneficiaries under the soldier and
sailor insurance law need employ at
torneys or claim agents to collect the
insurance; that the employment OF
such Intermediates is unnecessary
and inadvisable and needless ex-
pense.
The procedure for the presentation
and collection Of insurance claims is
very simple and The proper blanks
can be secured from the Bureau of
War Risk Insurance in Washington.

Ice who was killed or injured and the

WAR FINANCE CORPORATION

The need for the creation of the
Var Finance Corporation which Is
sought to be established by the bill
recently introduced in Congress is
thus briefly stated by Secretary Nc
AdOo:
THE governments borrowings. par
ticularly during the period immedi'
atelv preceding and following each
Liberty Loan, has tended to pre-empt
tpe credit facilities Of the banks and
often to prevent them from giving
reeded and customary help to quasi
rnblic and private enterprises. Many
instances have been brought to the
attention of the Secretary Of the
and of the Federal Reserve
Board where railroads, public utili-
tics mower plants, and other enter
urises have been prevented from OBJ
tanning the necessary loans to enable
them to perform vital services in
connection with the war because the
hank credits ordinarily available to
them are being absorbed by the gov
eminent"

,uticn Of the war.

There are many railroads in the

LEAGUE LOYAL
T0MEMbERSH|P
Fulfill All Promises and
Buckles Down to
Work on More

The first time the farmer came in
contact with a Nonpartisan league
worker he heard the promise: IF
you will join with your brother farm
ers in this organization, with finan-
cial support and willingness to work
with other farmers, the farmers can
have more to say about the conditions
under which they live. We will put
farmer labor candidates in the field
and work for their election"
That was the big promise. And
every farmer who went into the
League with that hope in his heart,
knows now that that promise has been
fulfilled. All has been done as prom
ised and scheduled. First he was
called to meet with his fellow farm
ers in the precinct to appoint a county
delegate. Then the county conven-
ton of farmers was called to make
the nominations for the legislature
and appoint delegate to the state
convention. The state convention
then picked the state ticket. From
| the moment the candidates were nom-
mated statewide campaign was OH
to elect them.
The farmer knows that this cam
palgn, built up without the aid of a
| state machine such as the two old
parties are able to muster and with
out the giant slush funds from the
big corporations, so scared the anti
| farmer gang that both Democrats and
Republicans united to fight his candi-
dates, He knows that this campaign
Of his League had to meet the ter
rible handicap Of the false loyalty
issue, intimidation, false arrests and
mob violence. II went through push
ed by determined men whom his SIG
helped to keep going, in spite of all
the great vested interests could bring
against it. All that was promised
was fulfilled.
Therein lies the proof that the
farmer can stick under his hat to meet
effectively all the lying and near lies
the hostile press and the old-line pol
iticlans can bring to bear. He doesn't
have to take any ones word for it.
The kept press furnishes as good ev
idencc Of it as the independent press.
| The League did not seize the dollars
and run. The farmcls throughout
the state We're organized, they nomi-
mated their own men for office for
/ the first time IN a great many years
if ever. an ther@ was a campaign
that scared the special interests from
Maine to California. Let the old
gangst,rs yell their heads off against
these facts to which they are such
eloquent witnesses.

sented by one farmer member Of the
present farmers state committee.
This will make six delegates, one each
from the following states. Washing
ton, Wisconsin, Kansas, Iowa, Texas
and Oklahoma.
The total number Of delegates will
therefore be Al.
The convention is called in accord
ance with the articles of association
Of the League, which provide for ma
tional conventions of this kind period
ically. North Dakota, where the
League is four years old, has had its
state conventions for the transaction
Of business regularly, as we'll as its
state political conventions, but it
must be remembered that the League
has been something more than a
North Dakota organization for only
two years, and in some state out
side the state Of its birth has only
been working a year or less. This,
therefore, is the first national dele
gate convention that could be held
the first one it was possible to call
under the articles of association.

not see it now, but they will som,
