 Progress in road building has usually followed the construction of object les son roads. In this regard the chamber Of commerce points to year book for 1907, page 135, which says: ''The sec retary concludes that roads should be built according to a predetermined and unified system, based upon q careful investigation of materials, amount of traffic, revenue available, methods of construction adopted to local needs, or ganization and administration and all other factors entering directly or in- directly into the road work"

POSTOFF|CE RECEIPTS
 INCREASE MORE THAN s1O.OOO IN SIX MONTHS

Rapid growth and prosperity are re- fIected in postal receipts at the Phoe- nix postoffice for the first six months of 1920 as compared with the corre spending period in 1919. In face of one third drop in first-class postal rates, totals at the local office for the period beginning January 1, 1920, and ending June 30. were approximately s10.0O0 greater than for the same period in 1919.
 First class postal rates for the first six months of 1919 were 3 cents per ounce or fraction thereof, while for the same period in 1920, the rate was 2 cents per ounce or fraction thereof All first-class matter was affected, except drop letters, which remain al 2 cents per ounce.
 The average net decrease in postal rates for the first six months of this year, including first-class, registered, special delivery and parcel post, is TIT per cent.
 Receipts at the local postoffice, there fore, show a figurative increase of 2T. 2 per cent for the first six months of 1920 as compared with the same period in 1919. Under a recent postal ruling, however, postal authorities are nc longer permitted to give actual figures Receipts only can be appreximated-

COMES TO SEE ABOUT
 ROAD ID PEAKS TOP

J. w. Weatherford arrived yesterday from Flagstaff on business with the state corporation commission in con- nection with the building of the boule ward to the top of the San Francisco Peaks. This is a project devised by Mr. Weatherford several years ago and his preparations were well under way when the war intervened and all other than warlike activities stopped. MT. Weatherford had secured the necessary authorization from the interior depart ment. 4 preliminary survey had been made and the necessary money was in sight.
 Then for three years there was noth- ing to do but mark time. Since the war, though, the work has been re- stunned and the location survey is now being made and actual construction will be begun soon.
 The present plans include only the construction of the road to the top of one of the peaks, but Mir. Weatherford is looking beyond that-to the building of a commodium on the peak or part way up on the peak. But that will be a later development of the project, and . when completed that will be one of the most remarkable resorts in the country for SightSeers.

NIaddock has advised the commission that if it is impossible to secure bids, the state will undertake the construc ton of the highway.
 The commission will issue call on Monday for bids to be received within 10 days, and if bids are not received and. if received, are not satisfactory, Il is believed the state will take over the work
