of the burden of living would be lifted
from the laborer in the city and at the
mills. Prosperity would be added TO the
toiler in the factory The city man
would pay less and the farmer would
get more. Besides the tremendous an
nual waste would be eliminated.
Hard surface roads would make the
farmer the most prosperous man on
earth. 1t would give him schools equal
to any in the cities. Ii would build
up the rural church. which is slowly
strangling TO death. 1t would solve for
all time the grave question of back to
the farm. 1t would cure many Of the
economic ills from which our rural pop
ulation has suffered for 10 these many
years.
Most of the panaceas Offered to solve
the problem of the cost of living are
destructive. They seek to place
shackles on progress and would aggra
vate instead of cure. But road building
is constructive program and at the
very worst cannot be destructive. 1t
offers to annihilate most of the distance
between the consumer and the farm.
1t places every farm next door to an
open market. 1t converts his annual
wastage into ready cash. 1t reduces

his carriage bill and increases his prof
il. 1t makes him the leading citizen
and most important citizen of the state
Last May the people of Oklahoma
by a gigantic majority refused to ac
cept a good roads program that would
have proved the economic salvation OF
the state They acted largely through
misinformation. Politicians promised
the people to give them something bet
ter in the immediate future. That prom
Use has not been kept because it was
not made to keep. 1t was just another
case of anything to fool the people. And
we are spending seven million of good
hard dollars each year on ghastly
thing called a road.
Now we face a problem OF living,
problem that threatens the peace of the
republic a problem that contains, within
its elements the facts of life and death.
II is a problem of millions Of people
working full time at unprecedented
wages and yet unable to pay the prices
demanded for the means of living. And
nothing will go farther to solve this
problem than a system of hard surface
roads leading from the farm to the
market place.
