 Good Roads Vital Need

quirements of modern traffic effectively l and economically.
 Good Roads Vital Need
 The day of the restricted area of horse drawn transportation has passed. Areas of production and distribution are widening. Because of the restrict ed horse drawn transportation, agricul- tural development in the past has been confined to narrow tsrips on each side of the railways. But with the wider range of travel made possible by mo- tor vehicles, production areas have been extended. unproductive areas put under cultivation, and the economic length of hauls greatly increased. The increased production and longer hauIs necessitate better roads over which pro duce may be hauled to market with the least waste and at the least expense.
 The need for quicker and less eX- pensive transportation exists in Mari copa county as it exists in every active community in the United States. Hun dreds of thousands of dollars worth of farm produce is waster annually be- cause of a lack of transportation fa- cilities. The only need to attain the desired transportation facilities is bet ter roads.
 The sudden growth of the automo- bile and motor truck industry has found the country unprepared with adequate roads. Old style improved roads are found to be woefully inadequate under this traffic and it was to meet the, need of an adequate, modern road that the paved highway was evolved As rapidly as possible dirl roads are being re- placed with permanent paved roads, and unimproved roads are being improved to successfully bear the traffic passing over them. The shortsiShted policy of building roads of low first cost and ex- cessive maintenance requirements is giving way to the progressive, busi- ness like policy of building for perma- hence and low upkeep. The value of the highway is judged by the sum to- tai of it's cost after a period of twenty or thirty years of service instead of by it's initial construction cost.
 Paved Roads Fill All Requirements Paved roads fulfill modern traffic re- quirements. They permit the use of motor vehicles with the least expense ] for fuel and upkeep. They are durable practically free from maintenance and usable every day in the year. They
 have met the need of the present day i transportation need in ever prospect | Thousands of communities have ex- perienced the satisfaction given by paved roads It is only by building permanent, hard surfaced roads that
 the fullest benefit of the motor truck
 and automobile can be realized. The intensive development of a community
 is impossible without an adequate sys- tenn of modern highways over which its product may be marketed. The mos insistent need of today is roads-road: capable of providing dependable trans
 portation facilities without excessive upkeep.

PAVED ROADS A REAL NECESSITY
 TO THIS COUNTY
System Of Permanent High ways Will Fill Demand For More Transportation Facilities
By E. Van Ribbink

To the vote of Maricopa county tax payers will be submitted on Dec. 51 a s4,500 900 bond issue for the purpose of completing the project of paved roads which will result in an increase of land values coupled with prosperity and progress throughout the county.
 Paved roads are a vital necessity for this county. They have proven a boon and a blessing to the counties of our sister state of California All the world knows what good roads have achieved in California, how lands on the Pacific coast have increased ten fold in value following the advent of miles upon miles of paved highways, and such is the story in every progres- sive part of the United States.
 If there ever was a time when du- rable adequate roads were needed that time is now. Factories are working at top speed turning out heavier and faster vehicles for transporting the nations produce over the country roads. Millions of men are at work in the fields and in the mines and in the manufac- turing plants producing the necessities of life, practically all of which must be transported over our highways Great CT tonnage and heavier, speedier ve- hicles have created demand for a type of road which will answer the re-

 JAR APPLICATIONS

Three applications to operate serv- ice cars in this state were denied by the corporation commission yesterday in two instances the ground for de- nial being that the traffic did not re- quire the additional service cars.

 A. NJ. Short was denied the right to operate between Tempe and the Yaqui village, the commission stating that the service car men operating in Tempe were able to accommodate this traffic
 sam Barber was denied the right to operate between Glendale and Peoria and Marionette, as traffic between these points are being satisfactorily handled, according to the commission.

PHOENIX COMPANY
 BUYS AN A|RPLA|VE

Plans of the Apache Aerial Trans portation company, announced nearly four years ago. matered yesterday when the state corporation commission gave it's official sanction to the company to purchase an airplane and. what was more to the purpose, turned over to the company $1,365.16, the proceeds of the sale of stock in the company and which had been held in trust by the commission.
 A condition imposed by the cornmis- sion was that the company should take out fire and collision insurance. There was no order of the commission pre- scribing the route to be taken by the
 machine.
 1 The plane purchased by Everett Til ] Ter, the secretary of the company, was one which was on exhibition at the state fair grounds. The original price 1 of it was $9,000, but the company took | it at the knockdown price of $2,250. It 1 is not intended, immediately at any rate. to put it into service in carrying passengers, but it will be used for exhibition and advertising purposes.
 The president of the company is Wes Hill, who spent som time in the east looking over planes a couple of years ago.
 Prior to the consummation of the deal whereby the plane became the property of the Apache Aerial Trans lportation company, Everett Tiller took a trial flight over the city and its sub- urbs The plane, with its 220 horse power Liberty motor. operated entirely satisfactorily and the plane was bought at noon yesterday. Plans for placing the company on an operating basis vii
 be announced later.

Attorney Swami Immediately offered
bail for his assistant but Justice
Weeks refused, saying that there was
prohlbitive law against a lawyer go-
ing on another's bond Pending the
signing of a bal. bond both men were
paroled in the custody of Mr.. Olcott
Mr.. Schwartz refused to make any
statement.
Mr.. Kilroe confined his remarks to:
MY conscience is clear. | did only my
duty"
District Attorney Swami said that
had his assistant acted in any other
way he should have been indicted, but
that as the case stood he had every
confidence in Mr.. Eilroe.
Mr.. Olcott, on behalf of Mr. Kilroe,
issued this statements:
1T is an outrage because it appears
on the face of the Indictment that Kill
roe received no money and is guilty OF
no corruption. 1t further appears from
the Indictment that it was his duty as
Assistant District Attorney and a law
yer to refrain from prosecution, be-
cause the first charge of bigamy cou d
not be prosecuted for the reason that
1t was predlcated on a second and third
marriage. The second charge of big
amy was outlawed by the statute Of
limitations.'
After pleading not guilty to the in

dictments the defendants left the court
Justice Weeks put the case over until
-,ovember 22, so that counsel for both
defendants could have time to go over
the indictments and make such motions
as they deemed necessary.
During the afternoon session of the
jury it was evident to those outside
that a heated argument was taking
place. Loud talking could be heard.
At one point Of the session the jury
sent for Justice Weeks. When the
justice appeared he was not admitted
to the grand jury room and returned
to his chamber. To the newspaper men
who were gathered near the jury room
the justice remarked: Like the Duke
OF York-he had hundred men. he
marched them up the hill and marched d
them down again. and with a smile
reentered the elevator.
Oidtimers at the Criminal Court
said was very unusual thing for
the jury to send for the court.
Mr.. Bauresse, whose marital trouble
was the cause of the whole procedure,
was not in court when the indictments
were returned.
