ROAD TO FAIRFIELD

Pcmaria, S. c.,
Ny 16, 1921.

NY 16, 1921.
Mr.. Editor:
/ notice that in all the talk about
roads l never hear anything said
about a highway connecting Fairfield
and Newberry or Winnsboro and
Newberry. l often wonder if my
hope for a good road connecting tneSe
points shall be blasted by these mod
ern engineers and highway road
builders, that generally go the ;ong
way and worst routes in order to pass
somebody's store or some little sta
ton or to please some special friend,
with no thought for the public.
Take this old thoroughfare, the
Ashford ferry road, from Winasboro
to Newberry and it makes almost a
bee line, having every advantage for
a road bed, being hard and firm, with
enough sand to make it permanent.
1t is the nearest ana most dlfect way,
and the right way, with Ashfords
ferry as the best crossing on the riv-
er and the only impeachment being a
hill which I can get around. | Will
gladly give the land to relocate the
road. There is no pull at the landing
and across the river a car can be run
in high for five miles Find another
place on the river with the same ad-
vantages and III throw up the sponge.
Now, gentlemen of the highway
commission, | ask you to at least
make a trip over this route, consider
conditions as they are. Then if you
decide in favor of Blairs, shall go
to work on an invention which | be-
lieve | can make (and more than nee

p S. I Go not object to a road via
Blairs. Those are good people and
they need road. But we first need
this old direct route via Ashford fer
ry, good bridge there, and then a
road via Blairs. Then Of course my
invention which | will gladly donate
to the place will make the matter
complete. J. Sd. 5.

 MAY BE DEPOS|TARY
 FUR |NDEMN|T FUND
TRepubIlcan A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON. March 17.-Inclu- sion by the allied separations commls- sion of the American Federal Reserve banks as an optional depositary TOT German indemnity payments, brought from treasury officials tonight the statement that the commission possi- bly had two purposes in view.
 TO enable Germany to call upon vast credits which it is said to hold through private agents in the United States.
 To employ in favor of the allied gov ernment the tremendous difference in exchange rates.
 Information gathered by the reserve banks was said to show that since the arrnistice Germany has been amassing credits in United States National banks holding the funds in the names of individuals.
 Officials said the amount would run | into many millions. This money, 1t was said, was presumed to be for use in Germany's future trade, much of which would center in the United States.
 | There had been no intimation given l the United States that it's banking | system might be employed as the rep arations note forwarded to Berlin to- day suggested. officials stated. The mere fact that this governments 's banks would serve as practically neu- tral territory so far as reparations were concerned was not accepted as the full reason for the commissioner proposal, although the reserve banks 1 have acted as depositaries for several l foreign governments.
