An Important Point.

There Is no question about the ac-
curacy OF the statement which was
recently made by a Chicago banker
after a visit to New York that he
found financial leaders in New York
not opposed to an association or even
a covenant whereby the peace OF the
world might be maintained, but they
are In doubt about the propositions as
il now stands before the Paris con-
ference. One Of the reasons for this
doubt Is to be found in the appre-
hension that at some time the United
States might be seriously embarrassed

made to a foreign nation. None of
those from President Wilson all along
the line who have spoken of the
contemplated league. either for or
against II, have referred to this con-
sideration, which is certainly enter
tained by leading American bankers.
The presumption is strong that other
nations OF the league will rely upon

that the United states lends to come

amount, large or small. When the

stead OF being able to take measures
to force payment. the United States
would be compelled to make an APP

Good Roads From Social Standpoint.
81 have touched purely upon the
importance of roads from business
standpoint. All >of you are aware of
the fact that it is necessary to have
roads before you can have schools.
You cannot have consolidated schools
where your children receive the bene-
fit of good teaching unless you have
good roads leading to the school
houses. You cannot visit your neigh
bors. you. cannot attend church, you
cannot leave your county and go to
the mountains or go any place you
please. In other words you cannot
get in touch with the outside world
and ! say to you that it is a shame to
have bad roads in this enlightened,
progressive age.

ROdman Wiley's Address
Mr.. Wiley's Address

Il am indeed glad to be with you
today and judging from the delega-
tons from the various counties from
Daviess to Jefferson, I see that you
are deeply interested in the proposed
Federal Aid road.
at is not out of place at this time
to enumerate some of the many adj
vantages of good roads because in
our hurry through life in transact
ing our various businesses, we do not
have time to give to the road ques-
ton the serious consideration that it
deserves. Every man, it makes no
difference what his vocation, should
be interested in. the road question be-
cause roads affect men in every walk
of life the same as the schools.
Good Roads Develop County
Nothing will develope a county
quicker than good system of roads.
Each and every enlightened govern
ment is considering at this time the
question of keeping open the lines of
communication between producer and
consumer. You have not forgotten
that right in our own State in towns
not hundred miles distance from hte
richest coal fields in the world we ex-
perienced no longer ago than in the
winter of 1917-191s a coal famine be-
cause the railroads were not able to
transport the coal for home consump-
ton and at the same time take care of
the coal necessary to successfully pro-
secute the war. Such a condition is
most deplorable and I know it is
frowned down upon by all sensible
thinking Kentuckians. / venture to
say that in some parts of Hancock,
some parts of Breckenridge, some
parts of Meade, it actually costs more
to haul the products of the farm from
the producer to the railroad station
than it. does to haul that same mater
ial over the railroads from Louisville
to New York City. There is really
no reason for such state of affairs
except the bad condition of the roads.
Highways Most Important
System of Transport.
"Of all the systems of transporta-
ton, the highways are to my mind
the most important because the high
ways feed the railroads and the steam
ships. All of the wheat, all of the
corn, all of the potatoes-practically
everything that is needed for sustain
I ing life is hauled over the roads, and
there is no reason why the cost of
hauling over the highways should
differ SO widely from the cost of haul
ing over the railroads. 1t should be

THE BRECKENRIDGE NEWS, cLovERpoRr. KENTUCKY

cent OF the cost is represented in lab
or and teams. Suppose Hancock's
25 per cent of the cost OF a road
through the County was a 100000
that would mean a 100000 road and
there would be expended for labor
and teams at least 100000 three times
as much as the County furnished
would be distributed among the peo-
pie of the County and at the same
time they wound get the road. You
have the assurance of knowing il will
be constructed under both State and
Federal supervision, that it will be
built according to accepted engineer
ing principles and that every cent of
its cost will be properly accounted
for. Surely when the State and the
Federal Government are paying from
so per cent to IS per cent of the road,
they are interested and will get the
road built just as cheaply as possible.
Road Question Here To Stay.
at is not far distant when county
or State without roads might as well
be out of existence because this road
question is here to stay. The bust
ness men of this nation have seen the
importance of roads and they are de-
termined they shall be built. The
road question is now receiving as
much consideration at the hands OF
Congress as any kind of legislation
The very life of our nation depends
upon the building of good highways
States all around Kentucky this year
are expanding two or three times a:
much money as we are for road build.
ing and they are building high types
So it is necessary for us in Kentucky
to wake up, and there is if YOU please
some sentiment in the building OF
roads. This war has taught us that
the world is small indeed. You al
most feel now like you can reach &C
ross the expanse of three thousand
miles of water and shake the hand o.
Italy, England and France. Our boys
fought side by side with the boys OF
those three countries, and we feel we
are neighbors. We no longer lool
upon them as being separated from
us by a long distance.

One Good Road Will Benefit All
"One road through the county will
not pass in front of every mans farm
but it will benefit everybody in the
county and we should remember that
every main road cannot be built in
any one year. Some one road must
be the first built and if you cannot
get the highway, help your neighbor
and when his road is constructed you
stand a better chance of sgetting
yours. Remember the Golden Rule,
