Inadequate Road Fund.


Assemblyman David Young's pub
lished reasons for quitting the State
Highway commission can be boiled
down into a few wordS-the job of
making bricks without straw does not
appeal to him. Probably he had
enough of that when superintendent
of the North Jersey Street Railway
TO last him a lifetime. AS Mr.. Young
sees ii, the money available for road
building purposes is rldiculOusly made
quate to carry out the plans already
adopted. The people demand that the
roads shall be built at once, and at
present prices the sum appropriated
for roads will suffice for but a small
percentage of the highways planned.
When the people come to realize this,
Young believes, there will be pro-
found dissatisfaction, which will be
directed mostly at the highway boald.
That body will be blamed for not per-
forming impossibilities.
The state engineers estimate of the
cost of roads and bridges to complete
the system of state highways as plan
ned is $76,O00,O00, 5S,000,000 for roads
and $1S.0O0,000 for bridges. Mr..
Young evidently has no expectation
that any such sum will be granted. He
suggests IN $1S,000,000 bond issue to
rebuild bridges; double the present l
mill state tax for road construction,
which now yields about $3,0OO,OOO a
year; pass the 20 per cent Increase for
automobiles and motor trucks, to take
effect next year. 1t is evident that ne
fully comprehends that these recon-
mendations are not likely to be receiv-
ed with joy by the voters, who are vo-
ciferous for good roads, but are averse
to putting up the money to pay for
them.
Mr.. YounS's assertion that many of
the bridges G. the state are In an ap-
pallingly dangerous condition Is sert-
Ously to be considered.

SENTENCES FROM ORIENTAL
WISE MEN
By DR.. Frank Crane

Far away and long ago lived these Chi
nese wise men, yet their wisdom is green
today and the need thereof.
CONTIGUOUS said: A man must first de-
spise himself, and then others will despise
him. Works of Mencius. Book ", Part
I, Oh. VIII, A.
Mencius said: With those who throw
themselves away it is impossible to do any
thing. Och. TX, ~
Mencus said: The path of duty lies in
what is near, and men seek for it in what
is remote. (Ch XII
The work of duty lies in what is easy,
and men seek for it in what is difficult.
(Same.)
Sincerity is the way of heaven. To think
how to be sincere is the way of men. (Same,
Oh. XII, 2)
Mencius said: Of all the parts of the
body there is none more excellent than the
pupil of the eye. The pupil cannot be used
to hide mans wickedness. Same, Oh.
XVII
Listen to a mans words and look at the
pupil of his eye. (Same, Ch XIV, 2)
Mencius said: The respectful do not de-
spise others. The economical do not plum
der others, (Ch. XVII
Kung-sun Chow said: Why is it that
the superior man does not himself teach
his son? och. XVII, ~
Mencius replied: The circumstances of
the case forbid its being done. The teacher
must inculcate what is correct. When his
lessons are not practlCed ne is angry. When
he is angry he is offended with his son.
Also the son says: My master inculcates in
me what is correct, but he himself does not
proceed in correct path: The result is that
father and son are offended with each other.
When father and son are offended with each
other, the case is evil. (Ch. XVIII, 2.)
The ancents exchanged sons, and one
taught the son of another. Och. XVIII 3D.
There are many services (things one
must do for others), but the service of
parents is the root of all others. There
are many charges (things to watch over
and keep but the charge of ones self is
the root of all others och. XIX, 2.)
Mencius said. The evil of men is that
they like to be teachers of others. (Ch
Mencius said: Men must be decided on
what they will not do, and then they will
be able to act with vigor in what they ought
to do. (Book ", Part II, Oh. VIII
Mencius said: The great man does not
think beforehand of his words that they
may be sincere, nor of his actions that they
may be just; he simply is what is sincere
and right. och. XII
Mencius said: The great man is he who
does not lose his child-heart. (Ch. XIII
Mencius said: (and Oh, that moder-
nifty might heedD In learning extensively
and discussing infinitely what is learned the
object of the superior man is that he may
set forth in brief what is essential (Ch
