millions for pefanseD

CHARLES G. Pinckney was one ol
three ENJOYS sent by the United States
to France in 1897 to settle disputes
which had arisen between France and
the United States. The American
grievance was caused by the seizure
of American vessels by France The
French grievance was that commercials
privileges had been granted to England
Talleyrand, the French foreign minis
ter, refused to receive the ENJOYS, but
it had been conveyed to them by secret
agents that before any settlement
could be reached it would be neces
sary for the United States to pay g
large sum of money, which was, in
fact, little more than bribe. II
was then that Pinckney made his ia
nous declaration that the United
had millions for defense. but net one
cent for tribute"

Gus Protests.

All industry and a great portion OF
the agricultural interests of the coun-
try are up in arms against the hasty
and ll-advised legislation already en-
acted by few states and pending III
others which threatens to strangle one
Of the nations most essential indus
tries, motortruck transportation. says
q writer in an exchange.
The protests come from highway
engineers, dairy farmers. fruit and
vegetable growers, grain belt shippers.
all lines of industry and commerce and
other operators of motortrucks and
their patrons.
They say increased license fees and
restrictive legislation have been eff
fected without sufficient investigation
and without conclusive evidence.
A sensible solution is being worked
out by the state of Illinois. The state
highway department has under con-
strucfion an experimental road con

differing from the others in design.

IMPROVED
ROADS
PROPER WIDTH OF HIGHWAYS
Eighteen Feet Should Be the Mini.
mum, Not the Maximum on Main
Travelled Roads,

Through all the years we have been
trying to maintain from forty to sixty
foot roads in large percentage OF
our public highways when such a
width was wholly unnecessary. The
road sides have not been cared for
because they were waste land and
this lack of care has made them
spreaders of weed seed and hay fever.
narrower roadway, well kept, would
in most cases serve all the purposes
required, drainage and safety, says
the Successful Farming.
Now that the roads are to be hard
surfaced the tendency is to go to the
other extreme in order to save taxes
for paving. We must look ahead II
we put down paving that will last
fifteen or twenty years, we must esti-
mate if possible the amount and kind
of traffic it will bear at that time
