Of the Municipal Court In the First
District Of Manhattan. This dis
trict includes Greenwich Village,
Washington Square, the Bowery,
Chinatown and Bowling Green. In
1t are found nearly every nationality
in the city and all the extremes Of
fortune and social favor. 1t must
be admitted that 1t Is Democratic

Between Gym
Classes


One day she was dancing; another
she was playing basketball, and
again she was giving a lecture on
hygiene when the reporter camped
on her trail, but finally ran her
down in an interval between one
kind of gym and another, when she
had to stop minute to change
shoes.
She is a young person who will
upset all the cartoonists' notions of
what female politician looks like.
Short, gray-eyed and slim, with
vigorous swing to her shoulders and
the quick, clear voice that goes with
refereeing basketball games, she
will be an Assemblyman to make
the solons at Albany blink with
astonishment. If she organized a
basketball game between Senate and
House, or. took the whole Legisla-
ture off on Sundays on snowshoe
trips, it would not surprise me. And
it might do the legislators a world
Of good.
She thinks she has a good chance
Of winning, too. Although her dis
trict went Democratic last year, it
was Republican the year before
that. She has to contend with
rival within the party in the person
Of R. M. Bolden, a negro minister
representing the black belt of Har
lem, but since the primary election
she has won large following among
the negro women Of the Roosevelt
Republican League. Mrs. Pauline
Dempsey IS president Of this, the
most active organization Of colored
women in the city.

GOOD
ROADS
PROSPERITY IN GOOD ROADS
Future Development of Country Must
Begin With Improved Highways
to Relieve Congestion.

There are today some 100000 miles
this amount perhaps II per cent could
be classified as improved, while only
about one-fOurth of one per cent can
be said to be suitable for the carriage
of heavy-duty mOtOrtruckS. And in the
face of this condition it can be said
without chance of contradiction that
the future development of the United
States rests upon the roads.
The past few years have witnessed
tremendous turnover In transporta-
ton from the railway to the highway,
says Roy d. Chaplin, former chairman
of the highways transport committee
of the council of national defense.
The congestion which prevailed during
the war made necessary the CONNER
cial utilization of the highway to an
extent thought impossible a scant few
years ago.
The motOrtruck, little known be-
fore the war, sprang into prominence
as commercially practical form of
transportation, and while the fighting
has ceased the need for the motor
truck remains with us, more insistent
than ever before.
Within certain limitations the
freight car of the highway is more
efficient than the rail carrier, and be-
cause of it it may be taken as a per-
manent form of transportation and one
destined to have a large influence on
the movements of trade in the future.
The hour has struck when the fast
moving efficient motor vehicle of COM
merce must replace the horse and the
costly terminal charges which prevail
upon the short-haul branches of the
rail lines. Already the motortruck
has become ''feeder" to the railroad;
shortly it is destined to aid enormous
~ TO the profitable long hauls, while
entirely or very nearly so eliminating
the Improbable spurs.
Railroad men generally recognize
the new movement and welcome it.
Street railway men, not so keenly
alert to its possibilities as a feeder to
their lines, have yet to take the full
est advantage of the opportunities
which 1t presents.
But back of the motortruck rests
the road. While the highway as such
is of little interest to those outside of
the engineering field, as a means for
transportation it becomes of vital i'm
pOrtance to every citizen of the United
States, whether he be in profession or
trade, minister, merchant, doc
for. High and low, rich and poor, the
toad comes into contact with all of us,
and upon it's relative efficiency de-

Gently, "but anyone who looks into
the question is pretty sure to find out
that the figures are larger than he
thought it could be.
Yet carriage is but one phase of road
costs. Poor roads mean isolation,
which in turn mean fewer POSSIBLE
tiles for education, fewer opportuni-
ties for wealth, lower real estate val
uations as well as increased costs Of
supplies. Every sound, fundamental
economic reason speaks out for the
durable road, just as it protests against
the poor, inadequately constructed
highway.
Despite these facts, which will be
verified by all who have studied the
question, despite the fact that the Off
cial government figures placed the
hauling over the highways at 200O,-
100000 ton-miles in 1917, our roads are
today all that they should not be.
They are inefficient, inadequate, anti.

And now that the war is over the
stuff is going into the making OF

Does the automobile save life? 1t
does. The use of motorcarS by nearly
100 per cent of the physicians in this
country is ample proof Of the esteem
in which it is held by this profession.

is consideration, where energy is
desired, the automobile looms large
as the vehicle to be used. Ask the
automobile owner and see what he
