STOCK Statesmen.

There are entirely too many stock
statesmen in the country and they
seem to specialize on persons who
want to make a lot of money in a
hurry without working
1t is remarkable how frequently
the man or woman who accumulates
q little money is so easily caught in
the snares of the gilt-tongued sales
man who has worthless securities to
market.
We have known of cases in Dillon
county where stock was purchased in
concerns that a man with business
intelligence would know in a moment
would never pay dividends and in the
end lead to loss of the capital in
vested by suckers.
If there is anyone in Dillon county
willing and anxious to invest capital
there are plenty of good bankers at
hand to show them how to invest
with safety. And remember, folks,
safety is more important than any
thing else connected with the busi-
ness of lending money.

Construction Of Freak Highways
Should Be Stopped-Permaneney
Should BE Sought.

]. ]. Hill, in a speech in Mime
apolis, January %, 1910, said: IF the
problem of the railroad terminals be
neglected for the next five years as
it has for the last ten,, it will blight
every form of activity by paralyzing
the whole trade"
w. c. Brown, president of the New
York Central lines, said November 5,
1912: "If cars are kept in motion at
the average speed of freight trains at
at present time, they would make on
the average four times the mileage
they do now. The trouble is the cars,
as a rule, are held longer to load and
unload than the time involved in the
actual movement of the cars"-that Is,
the terminal had the railroad by the
throat and was choking three-quarters
of its efficiency out of it. The predic-
ton of Hill was absolutely correct.

road transportation had already set in

MORE BRICK HOUSES.

1t is stated by brick manufacturers
that not enough persons in the United
States build brick houses. They say
so for self-evident reasons, but their
contentious as to lasting qualities
are undoubtedly incontestable.
The flame house found in most
small cities could be improved upon,
and it is worthy of comment that in
such cities where there are both brick
and frame houses, the brick were in
many instances built 80 or 40 years
ago are still in good use. and if the
interior fixings have been kept up to
date and modern, are as good as the
modern frame houses that areecon-
structed. Of course, if owners 10 not
keep up with the procession in the
addition of modern indoor improve
ments there is a marked difference
between the houses and those of more
recent building, so far as convenience
is concerned.
Brick manufacturers are beginning
to learn why there are comparatively
few brick houses built-lack of ad-
vertising.

WHO BENEFITS BY GOOD ROADS?

The old and ancient arguments as
to whom good roads benefit the most,
city or country people, is perennially
to the fore.
Improved highways benefits the
rural and town dweller equally as
far as bringing of products to nearby
town markets is concerned 1t is
hard to compute such matter in
dollars and cents, or course, but it
is undoubtedly true that when trucks
can haul larger loads with three or
four times the speed than teams for
merly hauled them there is saving
somewhere, and that this saving is
divided between farmer and consum-
er.
AS far pleasure riding, the farmer
and town dweller benefit fro ma good
highway in the proportion that au-
tomobiIes are owned in city and
country. In many portions of the ma
ton the farmers proportionately own
more machines than the people in
the cities. Where that is the case the
owners of these machines, when they
are so inclined, get more benefits out
Of the roads even when pleasure rid
ing only is considered than the city
folks do. On tie other hand, where
proportionately more city people than
country people own machines as is
the case in the vicinity of large cities
where there frequently are no farms
at all, it is evident that roads in
adjoining counties give more benefit
TO the city people using them than
the residents that live along them.
In the case of a county that is COM
posed of three -fourths rural residents
and one-fourth living in towns, the
rural residents will get the greatest
benefit from the good roads provided
they own proportionately to popula-
ton as many auto cars as the town
folks. And the reverse is true provid-
ed they don't own proportionately as
many.
The Dillon herald. [volume] (Dillon, S.C.) 1894-????, 1919-10-09

and stagnation not only in this coun-
try, but in the world.
The future prosperity Of the coun-
try depends upon production and dis
tribution; curtailed production means
high prices; higher prices means cur
tailed distribution; curtailed distri-
button means that the rank and file
OF persons will get less OF the essen
tials and luxuries to enjoy.
The worth while things Of life are
no good to the world unless they
are used-not by a few but by the
masses. Prohibitive prices effectual
ly eliminate wide istribution among
the masses.

and would have gone to the bitter end
of paralyzing every form of activity
had not the motor truck, which had
no terminals, gone to the rescue. Now
at this time, May 1, 1919, another thing
has got the motor truck by the throat
and is choking three-quarters of its
efficiency out of 1t.
This time it is the dime museum
freak construction of our so-called
good roads, not by tying up the motor
truck as the locomotive was tied up
in the terminal, but by knock
ing it and it's trailers to pieces, thus
cutting short the life Of the rolling
stock, as we'll as making 1t move
slower and with not over one-quar-
ter of load over the imperfect sur
faces, increasing the cost of motor
truck transportation way beyond what
it ought to be for what the motor
truck does, as well as limiting the
amount it can do way down below the
normal, writes Frederic J. Nash, in
New York World. Had these roads
been properly constructed they would
have gone to the stock exchanges and
been bought and sold there, like every
other kind of transportation securi-
ties. AS it is, they have gone to pieces
and left the bondholders, the states,
counties and townships, their bonds on
their hands and only scrap heap Of
bad roads to show for them. /, These
freak roads, had they been offered on
the stock exchanges with only them
selves as security would not have sold
for one cent on the dollar. They are
built on the credit of the states, coun-
ties and townships through which
they passed. This at the rate of two
hundred millions Of dollars per year.
A speed Of $50 miles an hour on the
beach at Daytona, Fla, was made last
Lincoln'S birthday, a rate of speed
which the locomotive has never been
able to reach. Anything beyond a
three-ton truck load is more than
freak highway can safely carry, while
the ordinary normal load of the freight
car on It's railroad is so tons. If these
few things could be combined in the
highway-absence of terminals, rate
Of speed beyond that of the railroad
a freight-carrying tonnage equal to
that of the railroad, cost of abe up
keep less than that Of the railroad
this would multiply our present means
OF transportation seven or eight times
and give this country prosperity dur
ing the next dozen years such as we
have never even dreamed of. We
want to change our form of highway
construction over night and put oul
highway securities on the stock ex
changes and not our highways on the
dump heap. Highway stocks anC
bonds based on the value Of this prop
erly-constructed highway Will pay Q
