The conference on the limitation OF
ornaments holding its deliberations in
Washington. hrs accomplished much
during the last week along the lines
set forth. at the opening Of the con-
ference by Secretary Of State Charles
r. Hughes. The "5-5-3" policy so-call-
ed has been partially agreed upon by
the three powers involved, the United
States. England and Japan. These
figures refer TO the proportion Of war
ships in the three powers mentioned.
Other matters such as the open door
policy for China, land armament FOR
France and other important phases are
coming before the conference at their
meetings and there seems TO be fine
shirt of cooperation among the dele
gates and much can be expected from
this august assemblage.

.Tr COSTS TO MAINTAIN
OUR GOOD ROADS

With regard g the position Of the
Journal on the Rad question the Rut'
Hard Herald says:
"The contemporary, OF course,
does not mean 20 advocate hard
surfaced roads FOR all the high
ways Of the state
We do not advocate an appropria-
ton or a bond issue 10 coayert all the
highways Of the state into hard-sur-
faced roads any more than we adyo-
cate an appropriation at one session
70 take care Of all the state school
needs which will ever in the future be
required
We beg leave to be credited with q
modicum Of common sense. We do not
anticipate that it will ever be desir-
able or practicable TO pave every road
in Vermont. There is a place for
gravel roads. There are places where
even dirt rods will suffice for q long
tine. There may be places where
other types than cement roads will be
best We do say that in our road
system there are certain highways
which, because Of their importance
and the heavy traffic which they are
already called upon 10 carry, should be
Of hard surface, probably OF cement,
and we expect that the mileage OF
roads which will be found to require
hard surfaces, will continually in
crease.
What we advocate at the present
time is beginning ir the construction
OF permanent roads. There is no use
in figuring at the present time how
many millions or billions n dollars it
is going TO cost to pave every highway
and by-way in the state.
We anticipate that a traffic survey
will show where cement roads are
needed. The Highway Department is
competent to pass on this question.
II there is a doubt IN anybody's
mind about the insufficiency Of grav-
el surface for the traffic between Man
chester and Rutland, let him carefully
observe the rev Federal road between
Manchester and Wallingford. Here is
a new road, built under Federal sup
ervision in what is supposed to be the
most approved way, but we miss our
guess II il IL not soon demonstrated
that the cost Of maintenance will be so
great as to show that cement road in
its place would have been real econ
omy.
Where the other advantages, which
include dustlessress, economy in auto
mobile operation, profitable publicity,
and twelve month availability are con
we can see nothing but econ
omy in cement roads on trunk lines.
