State and Federal
( Railway Ownership
Plan Of W. !. Bryan

Washington. Aug. 29.-William
Jennings Bryan today laid before
the house interstate commerce COM
uittee his dual plan of state and
federal ownership of railway lines
as a solution of the railroad reor-
ganization problems. In doing so,
the former secretary of state de-
nounced private ownership of the
railroads as indefensible and intol-
cradle, and characterized railroad
magnates as political corruptionists.
Mr.. Bryan advocated that the fed
eral government own skeleton
trunk line system, reaching into
every state, which in turn would
own the other carriers within the
state boundaries. His plan, he esti-
mated would cost the government
four or FIVE billion dollars, while
state ownership would be decided
by the people, who might decide for
temporary private ownership.

TWO MILLION BON ISSUE

= Putnam county has delayed plan
ming and constructing a good road
system until other counties around
are clamoring that she fix up so that
they can connect up their roads. In
other words, Putnam county. with its
bad roads, is in the way of the coun-
ties which wish to make progress.
To talk of a two million dollar bond
issue will make some of the hard boil
ed eggs gasp. But that's what Put
nam needs and it will not be many
years before it will be painfully APP
parent that a great mistake was made
in not assuming the obligation.
Our observation is that the towns
and counties in Florida which have
gone ahead and assumed obligations
in the way of bonds. are making the
most progress. A county in Florida
now without good roads has little
chance to attract settlers from coun-
ties where he highways are paved
with brick or asphalt. With good
roads property values increase. more
settlers come in and in the long run
the load is no heavier on each indivi-
dual than it was before the bond is
sue. 1t is a simple problem of finance
The more money you put into bus
mess the more it is worth. II the
ratio of increasing in enhancement of
value is greater than that of the in
vestment the investment is wise
one.
There's we'll defined movement on
foot to hold bonding election in Put
nam. The amount has not been deter
mined. In fact that will be determin-
ed by the property owners, but we
would like to offer the suggestion
that it should be made large enough
to establish a road system in this
county that will attract motorists COM
ing from every direction. for the more
travel there is through the county the
more the county will grow and in
CT ease in Importance. Two million
dollars in bonds will make it possible
to absorb all outstanding obligations
aud fix definitely the county's indebt-
e.l-ass ut that amount.-Palatka
