It's the most absurd perversion OF facts

Rose Macaulay, however, also finds il
necessary to sweeten what she has to

In contrast with the two books we
have menti9ped Leonard Merrick's
The House Of Lynch seems dreadfully
old-fashioned and dull as we'll Mr.
Merrick wrote it back in the dark
ages when the chief objection raised
against monopolies was that some OF
the monopolists were bad men. Mr.
Merrick has evidently seen one of the
cartoons of the fat gentleman with the
dollar marks on his clothes, who is
pictured as squeezing the common peo-
pie or stepping on the fingers of labor
and Mr.. Merrick believes that he exists
as an individual. Indeed, he puts him
into the story as the chief adversary
of young artist drawn in one Of Mer-
rick's priggish streaks. The book has
hardly a CLINT of humor or any other
thoroughfare to reality.

CROW Of GOOD
ROADS BROUGHT
ABOUT BY AUTOS

at is an amazing tale, the growth
of good roads since the dav when
the first auto got stuck in the good
rich dobe Of New Mexico today,
when a 100000 bond issue will
be voted on at the coming state
election. In 1910 a. l.. Westgard,
pioneer in the national good
roads movement. came through
New Mexico in his car, stalled be-
tween here and Santa Fe, was
obliged to send for help in extri-
eating his machine.
That was the beginning of the
realization to the thoughtful, that
New Mexico would never he able
to enter the automobile era if she
could not do something about her
roads, and do it quickly. col. y.

and the next year he called for
900 men to work the road to

thousand business men of Albu-
querque, lawyers, doctors and shop
Keepers, dOnned their Overalls and
shouldering picks and shoels which
were borrowed from the transfer
company, streamed out to the
Isleta highway. The women of the
city volunteered TO provide lunch
for the workers and an all day af-
fair was made of it. The roads
were hoed and Taked over and
turned over and made just a little
bit worse than they were before,

CHEAPER SUGAR

Herbert Hoover Says Two

to Get Back TO Normal.
tsr MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED w,as


Washington, May 1.-two or
three years will be required for the
sugar situation TO get back to nor
NAL, Herbert Hoover, former food
administrator, estimated today be-
fore the house committee investi-
g9ting the sugar situation.
Mr.. Hoover expressing what he
said was an "off hand" opinion, as
serted that there would have been
d less rapid rise in domestic
sugar prices had Attorney General
Palmer not agreed that Louisiana
producers could sell their crop at
IT and 8 cents a pound.
Prices have never been fixed by
the government or mortal man by
threats of Jail" declared Mr. Hoov-
er. They have got to be fixed by
the business process of purchase
and sale"
The witness said the Cuban price
was due to far wider cause.-the
worlds shortage"
Purchase of the Cuban crop last
July with government control over
distribution would have given the
people 12B cent sugar at this time
instead of 25 cent sugar, Mr..
Hoover testified.
Reverting to the Louisiana situa-
ton, Mr.. Hoover said he under
stood the crop was short and that
there probably was some justice in
the larger price. He thought, how
ever, that it had influenced Cubans
to stimulate the price of their
products.

necessity for doing something. At
least culverts were built for the
irrigation bitches. Up to that time
the road to Isleta had been crossed
by about 200 irrigation bitches.
Wherever it suited the farmer a
little ditch meandered across the
road, and when the banks became
broken by traffic, spread out over
the road.
In 1912 Colonel Sellers asked the
legislature for an appropriation Of
$l,600,000 for good roads and the
legislature laughed. People thought
the idea crazy. During the last days
they actually did authorize a bond
issue of half n million, and at the
coming state election in 1921 win
vote for a measure applauded by
everyone, the two million dollar
bond inssue for good roads.
The state has walked up to what
an investment in good roads means
to it. 1t realizes that the thousands
of tourists who pass through our
state every year will be increased
to tens of thousands and will bring
money into New Mexico If the
roads are improved. Federal aid
for the good roads bureau has
made possible a tremendous
amount of development with the
state bearing about 80 per cent of
the cost The forest service is
opening up the recreational areas,
so that motors can penetrate into
the heart of the pine woods; towns
and cities are paving their streets
and are improving the main high
ways which lead from the corpora
ton centers.
