directly affect for good as well as In
dollars and cents, almost every phase
OF farm, social and Industrial life In
the state. We cannot expect TO have
real system OF roads unless II ls
based on large units and this Is best
accomplished by accepting the county
and state basis with few experienced
and responsible men In charge In each
case. We must have roads that begin
and end somewhere.
Mnny counties are presenting TO the
taxpayers the question Of bond issue

Improvement should be governed by
the same considerations which govern
O bond issue by any business organlza-
ton. When a manufacturing concern
Issues bonds the money raised is
placed In permanent improvements In
the plant which will last far beyond
the life OF the bonds, or else no In
vestor would purchase the securities.
Bonds for municipal purposes or for
public in jvements are not always
subjected 10 this acid test, and in
stances are numerous in this country
where bonds for twenty years have
been Issued for the construction OF
public roads. where the type Of roads
built with the proceeds OF the bond
issue could not possibly last more than
ten years, and even then expensive
maintenance is continually necessary.
In some instances history shows that
during the life OF such a bond issue
the original road has been worn out
and rebuilt with different material,
and with the proceeds Of subsequent
bond Issues as many as three times,
and still the original bonds are liza
bility on the community.
Bond issues for better roads are the

that the road improvements will last

sured by securing expert and unpreju.
