OILED ROADS A FAILURE
Kansas Counties Wasting Money, Says
State Highway Commission.


Oiling of roads, which has recently
been proposed in several portions of
the state, is discouraged by M. w.
Watson, state highway engineer. He
maintains that oiled roads are at best
a makeshift and that the cost would
better be applied to hard surfacing.
Watson states that only two Kansas
counties-Johnson and Miami-have
extent, and that California, one of the
original states to take up the idea,
has practically abandoned It.
While freely admitting the bene-
fits of oiled roads. such as the allay-
ing of dust, Watson points to certain
unfavorable features.
I'm the first place" he said, there
is the dirt which is inevitably tracked
into the homes. Freezing and thaw-
ing invariably causes the road to dis
integrate. Numerous chuck holes ap-
pear as a rule and the second or third
year the road must be reshaped. Some
soils, too, simply are not adapted to
OIL
To obtain the best results with oil
the road must first be graded prop
erly. This may cost anywhere from
500 to $4,000 a mile, depending on
the nature of the ground, Watson
said. The average cost for the first
year is about 81 ,0oe a mile, while the
average to maintain the road is about
$500 a year, Watson estimated.
/. In view eff the bad features and
the high eest of oiled reads, am
strongly urging that counties use
what money they have available in
building permanent roads rather than
in oiling," Watson concluded.

HAS A BIG PLANT
Enlargement Badders Motor Co.
to $4,000 Square Feet.
Move Was Made in Six Hours
Second Largest Here.

Less than a year ago George S.
Badders opened the second Ford
agency in Topeka, securing a tenn
porary location. at 427-42e jackson
street. Forced out" is the way Bad
ders explains how his growing BUSH
ness has made it necessary to move to
larger quarters at 417-419-421-423,
formerly occupied by the Taft Motor
company. Badders will retain his old
location for the assembling of new
cars, tractors, trucks and commercial
cars. This will give the Badders
Motor company a frontage of $50 feet
on Jackson street with $4,000 square
feet of floor space, making it the sec
ond largest automobile agency in To-
peka-
Badders moved his entire plant be-
tween o'clock Saturday night and
midnight. 1T was easy to do this"
said BaddeFs, who is theroly schoOled
in Ford efficiency methods. 1--WE
simply had our new parts, pins. ETC.,
ready and moved the entire lot consist
ing OF over 1000 boxes without a
single Ford part in our $4,000 stock
becoming misplaced. Customers were
served as usual in the new location
Monday"
The front portion of the new build
ing is divided into two large display
rooms. The south one is used for
cars. tractors and offices, The north
portion is the passenger car display
room. where one of each of the Ford
models are shown. In connection with
the north room is a modern rest room
furnished with day beds, davenports,
rockers. reading table, electric fan,
telephone and everything to please the
tired traveller waiting for repairs on
his car.
An up-to-the-minute salesmen's
room with individual desks connects
with the sales room proper. Badders
was formerly in the parts department
of the Ford Motor company, and later
represented the company as a road
man in Kansas and Missouri. Il will
never be without every part of the
Ford car" says Badders. His stock is
complete enough to assemble a couple
of carloads of Fords.
Back of the display rooms is a used
awaiting delivery to customers line the
other side. The shop extends 100 feet
across the rear of the building, and is
thornly equipped with modern ma
chinery.
Contrary to the regulations of most
shops in excluding patrons, Badders
takes the attitude that the customer
has a right to see his car being re-
paired.
A formal opening Of the Padders
Motor company's new location will &C.
cur in the near future. Anyway in
less than a year from the time we
started saws BadderS.

LOCK OUT PLOT
American Federation Chief
Charges Conspiracy.
Declares Six Million Men in En-:

MANY ONLY WORK PART time
Financial Interests Adopt
"BIOOd and Iron" Policy.
Says Capital Determined to
"RuIe or Ruin" Now.
MANY ONLY WORK PART TIME

Washington, Aug. 19.-Frank Nor
rison, secretary OF the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, today declared the
nationwide unemployment now pre-
vailing is the most gigantic and wide
spread lockout of wage earners in the
history of the country"
It's a lockout-you can't call it
anything else" Morrison said. ITS a
deliberate shutting out of labor to
starve it into submission even if the
country goes to ruin.
eff congress wants to know why ap-
proximately 5000, 900 workers are out
of employment, as the secretary of
labor estimates, let it investigate the
gigantic conspiracy to crush organized
labor by financial interests with an
iron and blood policy that would do
credit to the kaiser and his crew.
Rule or ruin is the slogan of these
interests They are cold bloodedly
starving women and children and they
intend to keep business depression
until they have the workers submitting
to lower wages and working stand
ards"
Immediate action by the administra-
ton to relieve the unprecedented un-
employment conditions will be de-
manded by the executive council of
lantic City, August %, for a two weeks
session, it was learned.
Labor Sounds Warning.
Secretary of Labor Davis in his re-
port to congress dealt only with the
number of unemployed" said Nor
rison He did not estimate the mill
lions more who are employed only on
partial time, earning just enough to
keep body and soul together.
TT is time for the public to wake
up before it is too late. That is labor S
warning.
1T is astounding that congress
should think anything as important
right now as legislation to provide jobs
for the millions of jobless anxious to
labor. 1t is idle talk about business
revival when nearly 100000 men and
women are out of employment and
millions more are making starvation
wages. With the purchasing power OF
these millions either cut off entirely
or reduced to a minimum. there can
be no return to normalcy."
