Important Bill
WANTS GOOD ROADS
ENTIRE LENGTH
Towns Evade Their Share of Road I'm
provement Under Present Laws =
Only Three Out Of 25 Automobile
Bills Passed Last Legislature.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Sept. 5.-A bill
to have all through roads made state high
ways and supported by the state through
out their entire length is being prepared
by the Automobile club of Springfield and
will be introduced in the next legislature
by Gen. George D. Chamberlain Presi-
dent c. A. L. Wright of the club IN
speaking of the bill said that it is the
effort of the club to make the roads good
throughout their entire length Under
the present policy Of the state the high
way commission builds state road up to
the town line and leaves a long stretch
for the town to take care of and the
commission begins at the other town line
| and proceeds with the work and the town
does not do its share
Senator Chamberlain, who is an hon
orary member of the club said of the 2;
bills affecting automobiles introduced al
i the last legislature, three had only passed
| One of the chief duties of the legislator
he said, is to kill fool bills, and it il
often difficult to extract what is goot
among so many For instance bill wa
| introduced that fined automobiles VIII,
drove so recklessly that they bespatteret
any person. This bill Mr. Chamberlain
said might have kernel of good in it
The chief difficulty is in getting men t.
| have the same point of view. There i
a great deal of jealousy of automobiist
by people who do not own them and o
the amount that is expended on gooo
roads.
