HOUSEKEEPING VANS RAISE
THEIR PRICES IN ATLANTA

ATLANTA, Ga, Sept-If there
was ever any truth in the old saying
that "its cheaper to move than to pay
rent" that time is past and gone in
Atlanta; for the moving vans have
caught the general epidemic of high
prices prevailing throughout the coun-
try and have increased their charges
very materially.
They justify the increase by very
peculiar logical process. 1t costs more
to operate motor trucks, on account of
the high cost Of gasoline; motor trucks
have taken the place of horse drawn
trucks; therefore the man who moves
must pay the difference. Of course
the man who moves contends that if
motor rutcks cost more than horse
drawn vans, why shouldn't the Trans
fer companies go back to horse
drawn vans? But the transfer com
panies can't see it that way

LET'S GET THE BRIDGE

xITH THE DEFEAT of the Car
U lyon good roads bill the per-
ment bodybuilding program of the
state is still left in a jackpot. 1t is
going to be up to the next legislature
to open the jackpot and hand out
about three millions of dollars of
road money. Those interests who
made the loudest heller against the
Carlyon bill will be on the job with
the biggest noise for all the road
money they can get.
While the Carlyon bill met defeat
it served to stimulate interest in road
building and to crystalize sentiment
in favor of the early paving of one
translate highway. In response to
this sentiment it is entirely likely
that the Legislature will designate
some one Of the proposed cross-state
highways for early completion. The
Spokane interests who fought the
Carlyon bill so strenuously are going
to fight just as strenuously to induce
the legislature to designate the Sunset
as the first Of the highways to be
built.
The fly in the Spokane ointment at
the present time is the proposed
bridge across the Columbia between
Kennewick and Pasco. If this bridge
project is financed before the legisla-
ture convenes, there is no question but
that the Inland Empire highway will
have the inside track in the race for
the big end Of the road money. If, on
the other hand, the Kennewick-P asco
project is allowed to drag as it has
during the past months, and Van
tage ferry bridge project is sprung
on the legislature, the paving Of the
Inland Empire highway will without
a doubt be indefinitely postponed.
