WITH THE EDITORS
MICHIGAN FOR GOOD ROADS

While the voters of Michigan were declining on
Monday with some emphasis to experiment with
the eight wine and beer modification Of prohb-
tion they also endorsed Heartily the project for
spending fifty million dollars Oh permanent. road
ways throughout the state. Unfettered by any
such constitutional difficulties as exist in Mime
sofa, they approved the bond issue plan, and
work will doubtless be in active progress on the
Michigan roads some time before Minnesota gets
around to a vote on the similar hundred million
dollar project in November 1920.
1t may be asked why Minnesota is planning to
spend twice as much as Michigan on permanent
roadways. There are two reasons: Minnesota
has greater road mileage than Michigan, and a
smaller proportion Of it is surfaced The latest
figures of the Federal Public Roads Bureau show
the following: Road mileage in Minnesota, 93,517;
in Michigan, 74,190; mileage surfaced roads, Min
nesota, 1868; Michigan, 1928; percentage sur
faced, Minnesota, 4.24; Michigan, 1885,
The vote in Michigan is fresh evidence of the
good roads awakening. We are told that the sup
port was as great in the rural districts in the
cities, showing that the Michigan farmer is alive
to the economic need for good road to market,
and is willing to pay his share Of the bill.-Min-

PAYING THE WAR DEBT

The astronomical figures Of Americas war
debt swing far beyond the orbit OF pre-war flnan-
ciering. Its payment, together with the vast ex-
penditures demanded in the process Of readJust-
ment to the higher civilization the war has made
possible will test even the stupendous tf
this nation.
All the formerly warning nations are worrying
over the same problem. Some thought they were
going to "let Fritz do it," But Fritz threatens to
go into Boshevk bankruptcy, with less assets for
the creditors than might have been expected.
1t is becoming evident that for nations as for
individual citizens there is royal road to riches.
Economy and increased production must furnish
the needed funds But the funds are so great
that, like the debt they must touch new industrial
orbits
We have been prodgal nation, robbing our
resources recklessly away. We must now begin
to save on similar stupendous scale. Little pinch
penny savings will not meet the emergency.
In 1910, at a time of comparative prosperity,
the census found more than 100000 workers who
had been idle a considerable portion Of the current
year. In 1907 variety of authorities estimated
the army Of the unemployed at around 100000.
1t is seldom much less than 100000 The cities
reported directly to the United States Employment
Service found over 100000 unwilling idle in the
month Of March. .# -..~ 81 r..f "
l. This is an army twenty times as large as was
ever employed at one time upon the Panama
canal. Engaged in needed labor their product
would go far toward paying the interest on the
great public debt. 4M&ssxts4
Our farmers, with younger soil and better
tools raise less than half the bushels per acre of
the standard crops that are produced in England,
Italy or France. Raising this to three-fourths the
European yield would soon wipe out the debt. If
the dairy cows Of the nation averaged as great a
productsas those of many large, carefully selected
= herds the added income would furnish another i'm
portant source of debt paying income.

excitement. too. A new combination
of emotions for Celia French. She had
never been ali adventurer.
But then, everything about her pres
ent situation was new. It was new
thing to need-absolutely to nced-- n
hundred dollars. 1t was new thing
to be thrown. definitely and unescap
ably, upon her own resources for get
ting It. Consequently the thrilling
excitement attendant upon her discov-
cry Of way to get it was also new.
After her first gasp Of relief when It
occurred to her that she could get that
hundred dollars by selling her clothes,
she had for few minutes, felt pretty
sick. She'd seen herself lugging d
great bundle from one secondhand
store to another, battered-discOurage1
She had wept few tears, there in the
street-car, Of pure sclf-pity, and then
had dried them with a sudden flame
of self contempt. Why shouldn't she
play the game as well as she could,
instead of as badly: II any bullying
was to be done, why not do it herself!
The entertainment of that idea be-
gan an epoch with Celit-really chang
ed the texture Of life for her. She had
sat down at the telephone as soon as
she reached the house, called up, out OF
the classified directory, u dealer who
advirtscd most liberal disposition
toward the purchase Of used gowns.
and told him curtly that if he cared to
come to her house before eight o'clock
tomorrow morning, she would do bus
ness with him. She was very busy
and would be engaged later.
There had been All enormous salts
faction in feeling that she had got just
the right intimidating ring into her
voice. There had even been satisfaction
in recognizing that the man at the
other telephone was playing the same
game-didn't know whether he could
come or not; doubted whether the
things she had to show him would be
worth the trouble. The ring at the
bell at n quarter to eight this morning
meant that she'd won this first skir-
mish. She'd played the game better
than he had.
Now. AS she waited. shed was keen TO
follow up this victory. A feeling she
did not even note the absence Of was
shame humiliation. She didn't bit
mind letting Marie know the nature
Of the transaction, and was quite in
different as to what the maid might
think, or whom she might confide her
speculations about II to. II was the
sort Of secret she'd have guarded with
her life week ago.
You see money-the need Of money
had always been the skeleton in the
arenchs' closet. The assumption "a.
llent in that family from the time of
Ceia's earliest memories had been that
all people-all people Of the sort one

to turn up some time the next day,
and settled down In Il street-car, home
ward bound, to wrcstle with this new
problem.
She couldn't use any OF her own fur
niture. The Golfers would want
every stick Of It. Everything must be
bought new. She had, at first, only
vague idea Of how much this oper-
ation would cost. But presently, out
OF nowhere an advertisement that had
once adorned the bill-boards came VI
into her memory.
1--WE will feather your nest" 1t had
read. for one rundred dollars" She
was grateful for that figure. though
she meant to do her own feathering.
But where was she going to get the
one hundred dollars?
Well, there was the first months
rent on their own house-twO hundred
dollars payable in advance. The scll-
sible way to do would be to 60 ahead
and get what she wanted. ut once. of
one OF the big department stores where
they had a charge account and let the
Golfers check cover It. But this didn't
satisfy her. That two hundred month
rent was sacred to the payment Of old
bills. For other purposes It should be
treated as II it didn't exist. If ever
she began dipping into that. where
would her vengeance on Alfred be--her
triumphant demonstration that he'd
misjudged her?
The next possibility she thought OF
was OF buying 1t on the installment
plan. She could ask Fred to appro
pirate 10 much week out Of his salary
to pay It off. But this would involve
taking her husband IN on it,, and she
didn't like the idea. She wanted some
thing to hurl ut him complete. If she
were to 20 to him with the problem
he'd be entitled to say as to what she
bought. It would give him another op.
portunity to act generously and feel
aggrieved, which, she told herself paf
siOnately, she never meant to give him
again. No, somehow she must find
that hundred dollars herself.

A former secretary of agriculture estimated
that it cost as much to move crops from the farm
to the consumer as to raise them War market
ing investigations confirm or increase this figure;
while Hoover has recently stated that o.ig,
slow and wasteful is the marketing process that
half the product is lost upon the way.
Yet when the Panama canal was being built it
was found that the average cost Of transportation,
marketing and waste of bringing products from
the United States to the employees Of the canal
was but ten per cent Of the price Reducing the
cost proportionatey on domestic marketing would
give surplus big enough to pay the debt in a
couple Of years.
The list Of these almost cosmic wastes that
cumber our present industrial system, exhaust
our energies and confne our possibilities might be
almost endlessly extended. The wastes of duplica-
tion of effort, Of strikes and industrial friction
offer fields for vast economies. 1t was the tenn
porary removal or reduction Of some of these dur
ing the war that made possible the colossal efforts
that brought victory.
Intelligence and economy in industry on a scale
as vast as the operations Of the and the size
of the debt offer the only alternative to crushing
taxation and possible bankruptcy.
