"sno,.. Burnt" Rails Dangerous

A curious cause of railway accidents
10 brought out In q United States
interstate commerce commission re-
port on the derailment Of passengss
train. The derailment was caused ey
the breaking Of opposite rails which
had been -snow-burnt," this condition
apparently resulting from the friction
OF an engines wheels slipping on ac-
count Of being stalled in the snow.
The report states that "the means Of
distinguishing between safe and un-
safe rails Of this type unfortunately
has not been made known as yet.
These "snow-burnt" rails are somewhat

Ell VEN MILES OF
PAYlNCF FOR COUNTY
Large Sum Of Federal Aid Secured
By Go. Commissioners For
!. 49,. Trunk Line Road.

+ County Commissioner VIM. O. John
SON. Highway Engineer H.. E. Wadell,
Atty. H. G. Young and w. J. Ruddy
conferred with Mr.. Babcock of the
State Highway Department last week
and the following is the substance of
the report made by them of the in
formation received and of the situa-
ton as it stands and outlined to a
Tribune reporter:
: -Four years ago the County Commits
sioners of this County took a step
which is now rebounding to the bene-
fit of the people of this County to the
extent of several hundred thousand
dollars. This huge sum will come in
to the possession of and for the use
;of our County during the coming year
on the trunk lines which traverse it.
The amount is offered thru Federal
Aid and thru the application of the
Babcock Amendment The factors
which have made the obtainment OF
these thousands for the County can
be outlined briefly in the following bit
of history.
In 1917 the Commissioners voted
and carried out their decision to ex
pend some 100000 on the graveling
of Trunk Line No. 10 running East to
West thru the center of the County
area. OF this sum $4,000 was raised
by the Commissioners as the first eff
fort in the task. State Aid to the
amount of $4,000 was then secured
without difficulty. The County Their
possessed $4,000. In application fol
Federal Aid the Commissioners re
ceived 100000, giving them command
of 100000 with which to do the gravel
ing. This work was done in 1918 anc
the fore part of 1919 on a road stretch
of "a miles. BY their action the Com
missioners had secured for THO coun
ty $4,000 in Federal Aid.
Then in 1919 came the Babcock plar
which the Commissioners examined
and acted upon. An authorization wa:
given Counties in the state to issue
bonds to the extent of $25o,ooo. Il
this sum was expended and the bond!
issued the Babcock Amendment, i
| passed, would refund to the County
what it had spent. The Commission
ers decided to issue $15o,000 worth O
the bonds and found ready market
This money has been used on Trunk
Line No. 10 on which three miles have
been paved, East of Willmar and si'
miles West of the City are now under
process Of construction. In this polio,
the Commissioners showed themsel
YES to be far-sighted. The Babcocl
Amendment became law and the Coun
! ty will receive it's return on the in
vestment. Federal Aid to the amount
of $l33, 900 will be given to the Coun
ty and spent on the trunk line fol
pavement purposes. $4,000 of thi:
Willmar tribune. [volume] (Willmar, Minn.) 1895-1931, 1921-05-04

sum was secured thru the action of
County Engineer Wadell and Commits
sioner VIM. O. Johnson upon proper
Adding the Federal Aid
of $4,000 for the crawling in 1918
1919, the total amount Of Federal Aid
reaches 100000.
This Federal Aid will mean refund
ments to the county on the following
roadwork. All construction work done
on Trunk line No. 10 since Feb. /,
1919, including paving which embraces
the three miles completed East Of the
city, the three miles completed West
of the city and the three miles to Pen
mock now being laid. On Road No. 4
refundment will be made under the
Babcock Amendment TOR AL work
done between 'spicef and New Lon
don villages in 1920 hid also for work
done on the Olivia road during 1920.
The paving contract for the nine
miles on Trunk Line No. 10 was set at
a bid of s2a5,oOe. witktthe Federal
Aid of $1es, 900 besides the bond issue
of $4,000 the County is enabled to
successfully finance tha undertaking.
The State in the future will assume
the care of the roads as to construc-
ton and maintenance. hThe bonds
which the County issued will be TAX
en- over by the state and with only a
small obligation of a. Financial nature
on the County. tn
If the County issues the remaining
100000 of the $25O,0O0 in bonds the
Aid pledged to the County will be
100000 This sum of 100000 will
build six miles of paving beginning
at the Eastern extremity of the three
mile stretch East of the City. The
paving will then run nine miles from
Willmar and with only five miles to
the Meeker County line. But even
this length of road will receive atten-
ton. Should the County issue the
100000 in bonds it will not only re-
ceive the 100000 in Federal Aid but
the State will present to the County,
in the nature of a gift, five miles of
paving. This five miles will give us
full stretch of paving from Willmar
East to Meeker County. These five
miles will require an estimated sum
If S135 900 which will all be given by
the state.
In view of these facts it appears that
Kandiyohi County has been especially
fortunate in securing these financial
aids. Only a scattered few of the
Counties of the state took this bold
step four years ago, and when the
terms of the Babcock Amendment
were clearly understood

Would Affect French Credit

New York banks with French con-

tcrday regarding the report from Paris
that the French eNchequer is said to
be contemplating the issue Of 10000
100000 francs in new bank notes.
Bankers with an intimate knowledge
said that if the reports proved to be
accurate such a step would have q
most adverse effect upon French gov
eminent credit in the markets OF the
world. II don't believe" said one
banker, chat the French are likely to

their internal needs through printing
paper money by the BALE 1t was

has the circulation privilege in France,
and that it is limited TO approxim tely

Upward Trend
In Irregular
Stock Market
Little to Indicate Radical
Change i'm Previous Move
nient: Drop in Money
Rates Cause Rally

In the ebb and flow of prices in the
principal financial markets yesterday
there was little to indicate radical
break from the previous trend Quota
tions on stocks continued TO bob up and
down with much irregularity, with .
lightly downward tendency until IN the
stfternoon. when the rental charge ON
call loans dropped from to per cent
Since the present market in securj-
ties is largely in the hands OF prefes-
sional traders, who are sensitive to the
most delicate adjustments in the fnan-
cial world, the decline in money rates
vas forthwith seized upon as signal
for q rally in the marketplace. Traders
who had sold stocks short at hlgh,r
evels began to cover their commit
ments and to convert their paper
profits into tangible wealth. The up
ward surge, which came toward the
close OF market which was even
week, had the effect of elevating
slightly the average price Of both rail
road and industrial stocks. In the last
our the sudden smash in the quota
rions on Replogle Steel and Fanadium
vas Q conspicuous exception to the
General technical rally.
In the foreign exchanges, which have
been vaciilating this week as the time
for the conference at London between
the Allied premiers and German repre-
seutatiyes, beginning next Monday, ap-
proaches, quietude again prevailed yes
terday, with the trend toward moder-
ately higher prices. After their I'M
pressivc recovery during the early
weeks of this year from the low levels
of previous months, the exchanges re-
acted only slightly, and their steadi-
ness, after the sharp rally, is indica-
i've of better sentiment regarding the
currencies of the Old World. IN the
fluctuations of the last few days, how
ever. nothing except uncertainty re-
garding the settlement OF the repara~
tion problem and other pending issues
has been reflected. In spite of the re-
port from Paris that the French gov
ernment was about to have $4,000, ,000,-
400 francs of new bank notes, a fact
which up to closing time yesterday had
not been confirmed in cables to the
New York banks, francs followed the
lead of sterling yesterday. and showed
a gsin-measured in dollsrs-for the
day.
The unsettlement which prevails in
the silver market was brought to a
focus by q decline in the commercial
bar silver quotation to the lowest fig
ure since 1916. The rate Tell TO 3L~a
pence an ounce in the London mar
ket, drop of "a pence for the day,
The New York price shrank to 543sc
an ounce, off 15sc. The initiative in
the present movement is apparently
taken in the Far East, and is not dis
sociated with Improbable exchange
operations reported TO have been made
by the Shanghai Branch of the Philip
pine National Bank. OF course this
may have aggravated the situation, as
the bullion dealers contend, but the
basic cause of the movement is general
defation.
