the Council perhaps, will have to follow
the same course as the one taken by Nor

The public would rather pay cents with

pay : cents than see the company in tho

tt/ii HoN the iOrmaUiy OF giving ii
w hearing, Senator r. Lee Trinkle rejects
the plan OF the Virginia Good Roads Asso-
citation whereby it suggests that the State
can ISSUE good roads bonds without one
cent of increased taxation. In a statement
issued yesterday the Wythe candidate for
Governor made thu fiat declaration, 1T
would not be wise for me to recommend to
the next. General Assembly that any bill
should be passed committing Virginia to
bond issue OF S50000.000 or any fixed
amount II will he noted that he specifies
the next General Assembly leaving him
self free for that OF 1924. when an entire
new Assembly will have been elected and
business conditions may have changed
The Senator's statement is a carefully
prepared. adroit handling OF the good roads
issue designed apparently to attract all
those who oppose any issue OF bonds for the
building OF roads, and not unnecessarily to
ALLEVIATE any members OF the Virginia Good
Roads Association or others who believe
them TO be desirable. II would seem. how
ever that the senator has gone bit further
than IL was politically wise for him to 20

the Good Roads Association without giving
1t chance 10 prove that the bonds il will

creased taxation. Its figures have been

eminent fiscal experts. and courtesy would
seem 10 demand ihht these representative
citizens, who are giving their time and ,hoir

Harding breaches Sound Doctrine


d RESIDENT HARDING preached sound
1 American doctrine in his two New York
addresses Yesterday 1t is not too much to
say that this Republicac President voiced
a doctrine that is fundamentally Democratic
in its clear conception of the line of de-
marcation between the business of govern
ment and the business OF private capital.
and OF the line between this nations duty
TO itself and its International obligations.
Like breath OF fresh air after the fetd
atmosphere of governmental interference in
the nations private business-engendered
partly through wars emergencies and
partly through INSTRUCTED power in Wash
inGton-comcs Mr. Harding's statement that
he purposes 10 regard business honest
until it shall have proved its dishonesty
and not to regard mere bigness in business
as a crime 1t has been fashionable in
governmental circles in the last few years
when muckrakers and long-haircd theorists
have tourshed and waxed fat-to hold to
the reverse OF this rule. To-Day the nation
beholds The results. Government Interior
encc and government regulation have all
but torn down a vast business structure.
Every business that progressed beyond
certain stage of prosperity Immediately fell
under the governments suspicious eye and
became the object of legislative or other
regulatory repression and restriction The
railroads furnish the most striking example
OF government interference and death by
legislation hut there are scores OF other
illustrations OF what happens when gov
eminent ceases 10 restrain itself TO proper
governmental functioninG and reaches out
10 gather in private business just because
ii can.
The message to the business world is far
and away the most important thing the
President said-and he said many good
things--in his two addresses. His advice
20 the country to get back to work is time
~. His demand for honest wages for an
honest days work is sound. His stand for
tho farmers will give them encouragement.
Ills comment on international relations
finds a responsive echo. but his assurance
: that business honestly conducted is to have
its chance with nothing 10 fcaT from Wash
ington. and that mere size no longer is TO
hc considered prima iacic evidence OF crime,
( will do more to revive tagging industrial
wheels. and bring the return of normal
prosperous conditions than any other thing
E. has said or done since he entered upon
the presidency May he have the strength
90 impress his convictions of what con-
stitutcs hmericanism on every department
OF the government.
