SOME SOUTHERN
OBJECTIONS TO
TOWNSEND BILL
Senator Heflin and Others Bring
States Rights Issue Into Debate
Contention is That States Will
Furnish Half of Money, With No
Power on Board.

Washington, May 31.-The issue
Of the rights of the states, as op-
posed to those Of the federal gov
crnment promises to become the
subject of debate in congress on the
subject of highways.
The issue thus far has reached the
stage of discusson only in the senate
pcstoffice and post roads committee
at hearings soon to be completed On
The Townsend bill to establish an in
terstate highway system and to create
a federal highway commission. Mem
Gers Of the committee from the south
ern states have indicated, however,
that the question of authority as be-
tween the states and the federal gov
crnE?entt will be raised when the
Townsend bill reaches the senate.
Provisions of the Townsend bill
giving the proposed highway com,
mission Of five members authority to
pass finally on the roads to be, con-
structed with the S100,000,000 fed
eral aid appropriation have raised
the states rights questions at COM
mittee hearings. Questions put to
witnesses by Senator Hehin, of Ala
bama, and other senators from the
south sitting on the committee have
indicated an intention to attack the
bill on the ground that it would pro
vide a federal agency with a veto
power over highway routes to be Sc
lected by the highway commission of
the several states.
Witness after witness appearing
before the committee has been cues
toned on this point by Senator Hef-
lin and those supporting his conten-
ton, which the Alabama senator usu-
ally at the close of the interrogation
states as follows:
my contention is that the states
are required at the outset to put up
half of this fund to build the post
roads of the government, then they
are required to put up all the funds
for the upkeep of the roads for all
times to come, and they are going to
nave no power or voice-practically
none-in saying where these roads
shall be constructed"
Republican members of the COM
pittee and some of the witnesses
have disputed this contention, as
serting that the federal commission
would naturally rely on the advice
of the state commission as to road
routes. Creation of federal COM
mission also has been defended, pro-
ponents of the plan asserting that
direction by federal authority of in
terstate road construction is neces-
sary for otherwise, it is contended,
the $1o0,00O,00O appropriation to
be made annually for two years un-
der the bill would be used to build
roads "that start nowhere and go
nowhere"

The Horse Of ThlrtY.Elve.

Study OF the relation between the to-
tai length OF life and the time required
10 reach maturity has brought out an
interesting comparison between men
and horses. A horse at five years old
is said to be, comparatively, as old az a
man at twenty, and doubtless may be
expected TO behave, according to
equine standards, after the manner OF
the average college student following
human standards. A ten-year old
horse resembles, so far as age and ex-
perlence go, a man Of forty, while a
horse that has attained the ripe age OF
thirty-five is comparable with man nj
