MAYOR DECLINES
TO Be HITCHCOCK
COMMIT TEEMAN
Silent About Bryan, But Would
Like to See Hitchcock
Get "Compliment-
ary"-Vote.

Mayor Ed P. Smith yesterday an
nounced that he has declined tc
serve as a member of the state com,
mittee of the Hitchcock-for-Pres
dent club, and has so advised Johr
H. Mithen, president.
Mr.. Mithen, who was one of the
foremost promoters of the recent Ed
p. Smith gubernatorial boom, named
lanes c. Dahlman and Mayor Smith
as members from this congressional
district to serve together on the
Hitchcock state committee.
Says Neither Made Break"
Democrats whose memory is serv.
ing them we'll at this time, assert
that Mr.. Milthen made a political
faux pas when he named Dahlmar
and the mayor as teammates on the
committee. Others are specializing
as to whether Mayor Smith will be
lined up with the Bryan hosts during
the forthcoming state democratic
free-for-all.
Mr.. Mithen yesterday afternoon
dismissed lightly the mayors letter
of declination, insisting that it had
no political significance.
81 would like to see Senator
Hitchcock receive the compli.
mentary vote of this state, but an
too busy to serve on any Hitchcock
committee" the mayor explained
with an air of finality. The mayor
reserved his answer concerning en-
listing in the Bryan forces.
Dinner Will "Reverberate."
Arthur F. Mullen, democratic ma
tional committeeman, stated he. is
looking forward with interest to the
Hitchcock dinner to be given at the
Paxton hotel Friday night, March
u. He explained yesterday that this
function will reverberate through
the state something akin to the shot
that was heard around the world.
Assuming a serious expression,
Mr.. Mullen stated that he is going
to run so fast to retain his commit
teenenship that Billy" Thompson
of Grand Island will be singing,
you'd Be Surprised"

RURAL ROADS NOT IMPROVED
Cent Of Nations Roads Suitable
for Motor Traffic.

Ohicial figures show that there are
In the United States approximately q
10000 miles of rural roads Of which
II per cent are classed as improved.
Road engineers, however, estimate that
no more than one-fourth Of / per cent
Of the nations roads are suitable for
motortruck traffic. More than 6OOO,.
600 motor vehicles are now using the
highways. and of this number about
10000 are trucks varying from less
than ton capacity to vehicles capa-
BILE of hauling five to seventeen loads.
The most conspicuous example Of
anything approaching the efficiency of
a national thoroughfare in the United
States is the Lincoln highway. Or
ganized as private enterprise six
years ago, to stimulate good.road
building. the officers Of the association
have raised several million dollars by
private subscription and have stimu-
lated the Improvement Of many Sec
tions of the highway by the states and
counties through which It passes.
