ONTHE ROlDS AMENDMENT NEXT
ELECTION DAY, APRIL 7
RON COUNTY WILL GAIN
Proposition is Net For Bonds But
a Scheme to Help Counties to
Build Roads Now

Every voter in Iron county ought
TO vote yes upon the amendment
which will be submitted at the next
election to enable the state to bond
for good roads. 1t Is called the good
roads amendment" and while IL en-
ables the state to bond II Is not at
all vote for Fifty Million Bonds" as
has been reported many times.
What 1t does seek to do is to enable
H. state to raise sufficient money
whereby the counties may be assisted
in finishing up the trunk roads that
have been projected.
1t proposes to assist the counties I'm
this way. A county which Is unable
TO bond may get assistance from the
state to an amount approved by the
highway department and may repay
the state in small tax assessed
against all the property of the county
In addition it empowers the state
to contribute portion Of the cost OF
such construction and as will be seen
by the following table the state is
going to stand very large share Of
this expense.
You will note from this table that
Iron county Will get 65 per cent OF
the cost of this remaining construction
from the state and that only 80 per
cent will come out OF the county cof-
fers. Iron county has 101 miles OF
approved trunk line highway. This
includes the connection between Iron
Rivar and the trunk line from Wis
consin which is projected up through
Forest county 1t also includes the
line from Amasa north to the Baraga
line.

CONTINUE WORK TO JUNE ist
National Red Cross Decides Still Nee
essary 10 Produce Garments.

Mr. w + Jacka,
Chm Iron County Chapter.
Crystal Falls, Michigan.
My Dear Mr.. Jacka.
After a careful consideration Of the
factors concerned in chapter produc-
tion, the National Organization has
decided to recommend to chapters thai
the production OF refugee garments
should be continued until at least the
first of June.
Briefly stated. two reasons are ad-
vanced for this plan. namely: (a) the
women and children IN the war devast-
ated countries need warm. serviceable
clothing, and (b) the division Office
and also some chapters have stocks
OF materials suitable for refugee gar
mepts.
In view of the present uncertain in
dustrial situation the possibilities of
having garments made in factories is
being considered. In addition, a large
percentage OF the national stock OF
materials is likely 10 be shipped
abroad to be made up there. Notwith
standing these possible methods OF
helping to meet the need for garments
and OF using surplus stocks with good
results large quality of material
remains which cannot be disposed OF
economically except by having it made
into garments by the women workers
in the chapters.
II is recognized that your chapter
workers on production have completed
their war service and have received
an honorable discharge. 1t is believed
however, that many OF these workers
may re-enlist for the purpose Of max
ing garments for the women and child
ren in the ware devastated countries
II your chapter or its branches has
OF which we have no rec
ord and that are suitable for the arti-
Giles mentioned on the enclosed quota,
II IS desired that these materials
should be made up even IL in conse-
quence the quota is exceeded
Please be assured that we are not
imposing an obligation upon your
chapter. The quota is offered so that
these women who wish to continue
their service to the Red Cross, may do
so

Iron River Line Should Go.

The Iron River extension should be
the first piece of new work TO be at
tempted and something ought TO be
done to get II built the coming sum
mer when labor is as plentiful as Il
promises to be- This line will open
a fine tract Of country almost all OF
II through Stambaugh township which
is the only township in the county
that has no county road so far.
II Is also proposed to branch of
this new road near Stanley lake and
continue west TO a connection with
Villas county. Some who are ac-
qualnted with conditions say that II
will be cheaper and better to build
this Villas county connection from
point near Golden Lake where a sew
en-mile grade would connect up with
the Villas road which is now built to
the line.
The Villas road will open up tho
immense lake resort country to traf-
fic from the upper peninsula Atthe
present time one must go around by
Watersmeet and the road that way is
none too good
The lake country OF Villas county Is
a celebrated pleasure ground and is
visited by thousands OF tourists from
the cities, many OF them having homes
there. II can easily be seen what
benefit this connection would be TO
