ROAD. BUILDING WILL
PROVIDE EMPLOYMENT
FOR THOUSANDS IDLE

WASHINGTON, Feb.7.-Work for
thousands of unemployed will be pro-
vided through road building, Repre-
sentative Sells, Republican, Tennes-
Gee, said in urging favorable action on
the measureswhich the House passed
today in appropriating 500, 900, 900
additional aid for the states in road
building.
In addition to the labor situation,
construction materials are more reas-
enable in price and more adequate
transportation is available, Mr.. Sells
told the House.
The government has appropriated
$266, ,750 600 for aid in road building
since 1915, the House was told, and
In addition the states supplemented
this in 1919 with more than $780,
600, 900, and in 1920 it was estimated
the states spent $500.000, 900.
The balance of $117,000,0o0 of
federal funds available on June 1 will
he expended before the end of the
fiscal year, the House was informed
and unless an additional fund was
made available new projects in many
states would have to be Abandoned
Representative Almond, Democrat.
Louisiana, said federal aid to roads
was now an established policy and
both major political parties i'm their
90 platforms had declared f,r con-
tinaed liberal national aid in road
building

PRIVATES in THE
RANKS MUST RULE
THE DEM. PARTY
PPVAM
Commoner Comments ON His
Reorganization Plan.

II the Democratic party is going to
be force in this country it must have
the members and the voters will not
be willing to act through the Demo-
cratic party unless they can control
it, said William J. Bryan in discussing
the announcement recently in New
York by former Judge r. C. Roper of
Nebraska that he (Bryan) and his
brother, Charles Bryan planned re-
organization of the Democratic party.
Mr.. Bryan said he had not known
of the setting of definite date for
the launching of the movement, as
announced by Judge Roper.
II do not expect much of any SUI
face movements, that is, movements
among the party officials" he said.
Progress will come through activity
among the voters, and they cannot
act until they have chance to select
committeeman. Prior to this they can
organize among themselves, discuss
questions, pick out spokesmen and
get ready for effective action when
the time for the selection of commit
teemen comes"
''Past differences" he continued,
sought to be forgotten among those
who agree as to future action, but
there can be no harmony in the<party
organization as long as the "wets" of
Wall Street or any other special in
terest attempts to use the party or
ganization to keep the party from do
ing its duty to the public.
sour party must deserve to win to
have any chance of success, and it win
not deserve to until it puts the cause
of the people above the ambition Of
any individual.
"The people are intensely IN ear
nest and the committee can best serve
the party mot by burning incense l.e-
fore any particular idol, but by get
ting down to work for the protection
of hte public against exploiters.
''It makes comparatively little diff
ference who is chairman of the ma
tional committee, but it makes tre-
inendous difference whether the COM
mittee II interested iii personal ambI-
tions or the welfare Of the masses"

sell that he would appoint him cir

proval of the members of the bar over

BOND URGES AGAINST
BURNING OF FORESTS

JACKSON, Miss, Feb. 13.-W. F.
Bond, state superintendent of educa-
ton, alive as always to the best inter-
ests of the reonle of the state as a
whole, and realizing the value of the
school as a means of disseminating
knowledge of more kinds than that
included in the "Three RS" has sent
to the county superintendents of ed
ucation and teachers of the "piney
woods" section the-following letter:
"Ever since / can remer Der it has
been the custom to burn off annually
the grass on the wild lands of your
section of the, state on the supposition
that the range was thereby improved.
We now know the following things to
be the facts in the case"
81. The range is not improved, for
where the dead grass is left it war rs
the soil and causes the young grass TO
grow faster in the late winter and
early spring. In the course of two
or more years the dead grass will
form such a mating on the ground as
to protect and keep alive all winter
the young and tender grass urder-
meath the top cover sheen will live
on this grass all winter; cattle will al
so get good picking
"2. The mating of dead grass al
so enrichesT the soil. IN srehy r.; king

year and also making the soil better
for cultivation, should it ever be cul-
tivated.

and will be, if the seed and young
trees are not burned up anuallv. 1t
is too bad the way our beautiful pine
forests have been mutilated and al
most destroyed by the lumbermen.
There should be laws prohibiting the
cutting of young pine trees less than
foot in diameter two feet from the
ground. If our cut over lands can be
seeded and the young trees protected
we shall have another pine forest
within the next so or 100 years. VIII

STARPOINTS THAT
FORETELL PROSPERITY

If you are one of those glooms who
think that business is going to be deaC
with its attendant unemployment
what do you think that the following
facts foretell?
Bonds are still in the hands Of The
mass of the people and they constitute
an enormous buying power.
Hundreds and hundreds of millions
that were annually spent in liq1oI
will now be spent in general merchan-
disc and the building of homes.
Everybody now recognizes that our
new banking system is rock of Gil
braltar and that the Federal Reserve
Bank will prevent any panic no mat
ter what happens.
Lower taxation is coming sure.
AS a result of the war the United
States is the richest nation in the
world.
An impetus has been given foreign
trade which cannot be lost-anyhow,
not soon.
National advertising has become a
great force--so great that it will con-
stantly and enormously increase,
more business.
The war standardized many busi-
nesses and in others it has caused
much greater efficiency in produc-
ton. And there will be much more
efficiency in distribution.
If all these facts do not foretell
renewed prosperity, what in all con-
science do they foretell?

Discomfort OF LABOR
AND CAPITAL

Thomas A. Edison, the wizard of
electricity, who celebrated his seven
ty-third birthday the other day. hit
at the very root of the cause of dis
contented labor when he said:
II am not against the eight-hour
day, or any other thing that protects
labor from exploitation at the hands
of ruthless employers, but it makes
me sad to see young Americans shac-
kle their abilities by blindly conform
ing with rules which force the indus
trious man to keep in step with the
shirker. / have always felt that one
of the principal reasons for American
progress in the past has been that ev-
cry man had chance to become
whatever he wanted to be. The en-
ployee planned to become an employ
er; the unskilled man sought to be-
come skillful. A young man was not
well thought of if he were not striv-
ing for a-higher place in life.
To-day am wondering what
would have happened to me by now
If fifty years ago some fluent talker
had converted me to the theory of the
eight-hour day and convinced me that
it was not fair to my fellow workers
to put forth my best efforts in my
work. ! am glad that the eight hour
day had not tAeen invented when l was
young man. If my life had been
made up of eight-hour days | do not
believe could have accomplished a
great deal. This country would not
amount to as much as it does if the
young men of fifty years ago had
been afraid that they might earn more
than they were peaid. They ought 10
be some labor leader strong enough
and wise enough to make trade un-
ions means Of fitting their members
for better jobs and greater response
bilities."
