TRAIL MEETING
BRINGS ENTHUSIASM HERE

furnished In the required length of
time, the money which is allotted by
the government for this purpose is
given to some other state.
Between June 30, 1921, and June 80.
1922, Cottrell said, we must raise the
sum of $1.276.344 or we will lose the
government appropriation. He went
further into detail. explaining how the
government had expected western
roads to be built along the same plan
as roads in the East, but because of
different climatic conditions this Is
impossible.
After showing how highway work
had been impeded In the last few
years on account of the war, labor
shortage and unsatisfactory freight
shipments. the speaker outlined work
to be accomplished as soon as the
weather permits. especially in the ter
ritory east of Lovelock. He said that
this work. although delayed. could be
done cheaper now than it could have
been at an earlier date.
Cottrell mentioned the gasoline tax
which Is enforced in a few states and
recommended its use in Nevada. This
tax puts a. duty of three cents per
gallon on all gasoline used and this
tax is to be used for upbuilding of
highways.
He also stated that the commission
was in receipt of army equipment
which will be utilized by counties at
a very small cost.
Senator elect Tasker l.. Oddie then
took the floor. He emphasized the
fact that Nevada possessed fifteen per
cent of the mileage of the United
States and only had one-tenth of one
per cent of the population. He ex-
pressed the view that we had gotten
the worst of it on the road PROPOSE
tion, but advised citizens not to be
discouraged and explained how water
constantly dropping on solid rock will
eventually leave an impression. The
Senator then told of his experiences
in road building In the first days of
automobiles around Tonopah, and
pointed out the fact that perseverance
always wins and will win wonderful
road for northern Nevada.
Immediately following oddie's talk
these committees were appointed:
Nominating committee-R. W. Hes
son, II. J. Murrish and D. Quilici.
Resolutions committee-H. U. Cas-
tie, L. A. Lemaire and J. w. Pruett.
Auditing committee-C. E. Havi-
land. Freed Johnson and J. l. Peter
son.
Adjournment was then taken for
lunch. the visitors being guests OF
the Humboldt County Chamber OF
Commerce at Winneva hall.
After a two-hour recess. during
which the speakers and visitors
lunched, the meeting was continued
L. A. Mares of Fresno. chairman OF
the good roads committee of the Cali
fornia State Automobile Association
was the first speaker of the afternoon
session. He prophesies better CON-
mercial conditions over the whole
country within a month and believes
that the United States will have
reached normalcy again by next April
Mares is doing all he can to get good
roads in Nevada and is giving up two
or three months of his valuable time
to the raising of finances to see this
project put through.
At the time of going to press the
next sneaker is not known and there
are several more yet to be heard.

Great enthusiasm was manifested
for coast-to-coast highway of excel
lent character during the annual
meeting Of the Overland Trail Club
held here today In the new court
house building.
Mayor T. A. Brandon opened the
meeting with a welcome to visitors
and expressed the desire of citizens
for good roads, pledging support of
this city.
He was followed by w. H. Goodin,
president OF the Overland Trail Club.
who outlined the work OF the club
during 1920 and what is hoped to be
accomplished during 1921. He ex-
planned that this is the fourth annual
meeting and by far the most impor-
tant one held since March, 1917. He
expressed the idea that in the promo
ton of highways the work of commits
sioners would be selling" good roads
to the tax-paying public. comparing
any highway system to a system of
arteries and veins. He explained how
the human body is incapable of doing
proper work IL these veins and ar
teries are in poor condition--so II is
with the country at large IL its roads
are not in good shape. Goodin also
went into details concerning social
advantages. marketing facilities. and
better financial conditions to be real
ized where a country's roads are In
good condition, explaining how good
roads cost money but bad ones cost
more.
After announcing that a meeting Of
highway commissioners will be held
at Reno on the 14th and 18th of Janu-
ary, to which everyone interested In
this movement is invited. Goodin
called upon c. C. Cottrell. state high
way engineer, to take up the matter OF
financing the project.
Cottrell gave brief sketch of high
way work accomplished previous to
the year 1916 He said that an Office
had been created some time in the
'90s for the purpose OF determining
some way In which the federal gov
ernment could aid counties and states
In road construction Although the
aid given by the government was in
| finitely valuable, there was much COM
plant from these counties on account
OF numerous restrictions. In the first
place there were not nearly enough
roads for the area taxation was too
much according to population. and
the money which had been appro-
priated for building highways was
specified to be used only on post
roads. However, in 1919 this bill was
amended and additional money was
granted for other roads. He pointed
out the injustice of the way the money
had been appropriated by comparing
the mileage of two kinds Of roads.
For instance, to 1850 miles OF high
way, only $50 came under the post
road class, and they were the only
ones for which this money could be
used. Also in the 425 miles of Over
land Trail in Nevada. only twenty-five
were post roads.
Cottrell explained how all highway
improvement was made at the ex-
pense of the county and after all sur
veys and estimates had been made
the government reimbursed the coun-
ty. but according to ratio of "a to S.
That is. for every Sc the county has to
pay, 81 is returned by the government
Also this money has to all be fur
nished by the county before the work
can be commenced. And II 1t is not

"Smilin' Through" sends word
ahead that is most interesting.
