NO ROAD ACTION
TAKEN BY STATE
HIGHWAY COMMISSION HEARS
DELEGATIONS FROM ALL OVER
STATE.

Tallahassee, Jan. 29.-The state
road department, after a two days
session, adjourned shortly after noon
today. No further action has as yet
been taken upon the bid of J. Y. Will
son, Of Jacksonville, contractor for
paving section A of state road number
one, between Jacksonville and Lake
City.
1t was stated at the state department
today that the convicts would continue
to work at clearing the right of way
and when that has been accomplished
will probably begin the grading. Forces
are now doing such work on parts Of
roads one and two.
Among the actions taken today were
the following: The road from Pensa-
cola to Flomaton was designated as
state aid road. The funds available
for use by the department on this
road consists of the automobile license
fund apportioned to Escambia county
and aggregate approximately 100000
Under the law the county will have
to furnish an equal amount for the
construction of the road. The road
from Monticello to the Georgia line
enroute to ThomasvilIe was designated
as a state aid road, the department de-
signated as a state aid road, the road
beginning at Haines City, in Polk
county, where it intercepts state road
number two, via Frost Proof, Avon
Park and Sebring, to Lake Annie in
DeSoto county, where it intersects
state aid road number nine. The de-
partment was engaged up to the last
moment in hearing delegations from
various parts of the state, all of whom
received attention. The delegation in
cluded those from the following cOun-
ties: jefferson, Gasden, Leon, Els-
Gambia, Santa Rosa, Holmes, Hills
boro, DeSoto, Lake and Clay.
The following resolution was a
dopted:
Whereas, ever increasing travel
over the public roads in Florida calls
for a greater width of roadway than

the rights of way of all roads upon
which such federal aid funds viii be
expended shall be at least 66 feet IN
width and
Whereas, it is the sense of this de-
partment that it will be necessary to
provide rights of way of the width
stated,
Therefore, be it resolved, that in
future road construction overtaken by
the state road department including
projects as have not yet been definate-
ly planned, but are under considera-
ton, the rights of way shall be not
less than IS feet in width.

WANT INTERIOR
 MAILS ROUTED ] VIA SEWARD

The Chamber of Commerce has been advised by wire from Fairbanks that the postoffice department is GOntem- plating changing the routing of. In- terior mail from Cord0ya via tIats Rich ardson road to Seward and the Broad Pass route. For several months Ne mana, Anchorage, and SowarGa ~:hanrz bers have been attempting to 4 have mail and express routed via the Broad Pass route instead of via Chitir5a and the Richardson road, and apparently their efforts have been successful
 Fairbanks has made strong pro test over the change, as has Cordova, but if the postoffce. department ex- hibits the perspicacity in this matter it has shown in other matters touch ing Alaska mails it may yet route the mails via Iliamna and Cold Bay.
 If the mails are routed via Broad Pass, Fairbanks citizens will be from four to eight days longer in getting their mails, and the. change will cause a great inconvenience to roadhouses and mine owners along the Richard son road, unless a branch mail line is established.
 The government officials face an| enormous deficit in the operation, of the Interior railway and must makeI good somehow.

OSCAR DOBSS NAMED
As CITY MANAGER

The city council has re-employed
Oscar Dobbs as City Manager. The
News believes this was wise move
on the part Of the council. Without
any noise about his work Mr.. Dobbs
has been giving the city n most eff
cient administration as city manager.
During the past several months the
city indebtedness has been materially
reduced and the prospects now are
good that the greater part Of the in
debtedness with the exception of
bonds) against the city will be wiped
out within the next yea, Mr.. Dobbs
is not only a good business man but n
good engineer and his services will
be of much value TO the city in con-
nection with the paving program now
ahead. The office Of city manager
relieves the mayor and aldermen of
much Of the work in connection with
the city's business, and the News pre-
diets that Mr.. Dobbs will save the
city many times his salary during the
coming two years, the term for which
he was employed by the council.

PUBLIC SCHOOL DISPLAY
A GREAT SUCCESS

The fourth annual exhibition of
school work of the Clovis public
schools was held last Friday, and
judging from the many expressions
of approval the work of the local
teachers has not been in vain. From
one o'clock until after five O'Clock
crowds gathered in each of the rooms
and viewed the work accomplished by
the pupils. The domestic science
girls had their sewing on display, and
served cakes and cookies and punch
to visitors in their department. More
than two hundred-fifty people were
served. The manual training boys
had library tables, davenport, rock
ers, book cases, step-ladders, and
numerous other articles Of a useful
nature on display. In the grades the
teachers saved the work Of individual
pupils month by month throughout
the year and had this work on exhi-
bition, showing the progress made
as the work progressed through the
year. 1t is estimated that more than
one thousand visitors were present
At three-thir4y o'clock the music de-
.partment gave an exhibition which
was very pleasing. However only q
small portion of the crowd could gel
into the larg auditorium to hear the
music.

NEW WHOLESALE
GROCERY FOR CLOVIS

The Waples-Platter Wholesale Gro
cery Company will soon be operating
a store in Clovis. This company has
number Of branch houses in differ
ent cities in Texas. A new building
which will be occupied by the firm is
now upder construction on the track
age about a block east Of the Latta
Grocer Co. The new building is two
stories with large loading platform
and is 5Ox100 feet. 1t is being coh-
structed of reinforced concrete and
every effort is being made to have
the building ready for occupancy by
July LIST.
There are persistent rumors that
two or three other big wholesale gro
cery houses will locate in Clovis with
in the next few months. Clovis has
superior railroad facilities to any
town in eastern New Mexico and no
other town can serve the big terri
tory in a wholesale way as easily as
the Magic City can.

CLOVIS SCHOOLS WIN
STATE HEALTH PENANTS

The Health Crusade conducted by
the Clovis schools last winter resulted
in their winning three first places, en-
titlmg them to three pennants. The
lucky teachers whose rooms receive
pennants are Miss Cecile Thompson,
Miss Ella Powers, Mr.. J. W. Tanner.
Much Of the success of the campaign
is attributed to the work Of the
teachers in encouraging the pupils
to do the health chores. The pen
ants will be presented in person by
the state health officer in May, at
which time appropriate exercises will
be held. Considering ihe fact that
Clovis schools competed with schools
throughout the state the showing
was exceptional.

ciation's store and will have capa-
city of $4,000 bushels. Work will
