ROADS AND HEAVY TRAFFIC.

About every material used In road construction has
been tried out in Indiana, both for city streets and
country roads. lndianas experience would be prac-
tcally the experience Of all Of the states west Of the
Allegheny mountains. The coming of the motor truck
and heavy loads has presented a new problem which
is yet to be solved by the engineers and road build
ers. Writing on the subject the indianapolis Star
says:
Interests having to do with transportation by mo-
tor truck are naturally eager for good roads. So is
the public. But unfortunately the good road that will
stand heavy traffic has not yet been evolved. The
hard macadam goes to pieces like so much tissue pa
per under very heavy loads on solid tires. The truck
men declare that the cement highway as it is being
constructed today is of little value, and probably ii
will not stand much heavy traffic. The only sugpes-
ton that appears from their conference thus far is
that there should be deeper road foundations. going
below the frost line.
But would that help much? How long does a
pavement last on Kentucky avenue or any of the In
dianapohs thoroughfares where very heavy hauling is
the rule? These foundations are deep enough and
solid enough, but it is usually a question Of only a
short time until the surface is tut to pieces and the
street is full of chuck holes. Asphalt, brick, creosoted
cedar blocks and various other surfaces nave been
tried VI much the same result; the pavement goes
to piec .lickly.
the way to more satisfactory road making. Many of
the Roman. roads on the continent of Europe and in
England are still-in existence. The foundations were
generally very heavy blocks of stone and the surface
was made of dirt or gravel or whatever material was
accessible AS the centuries 0assed there have
Deen' OF course, many surf many kinds of
surface, but the foundations 1t is pener.uv
neither a difficult nor a highly ensive proposit;on
to build good roads over them"

many resorts along the New Jersey coast, it is sah
considered immodest for ladies to go swimming or
bathing without encasing their legs IN unaooreVateo
stockings. The length of skirt is also legally pre-
seribed, and is usually quite sufficient to make SWIM
ming a painful effort. North and south OF New iork
and New Jersey the rules are not quite so strict, put
the general beach attitude IS likely TO be somewhat
mid Victorian.
Progressing westward one notes a rapidly deereas-
ing rigidity Of beach censorship which we are unwlll-
ing TO believe denotes a lowering of the standards Of
morality. In Cleveland. for instance, 1t has been many
years since the powers that be have made any at
tempt to compel girls and women to wear stockings
on the municipal beaches, and the exposed knees Of a
fair bather are considered no more novel or immodest
than the bare shanks of her male escort In Chicago
there is still more latitude, and the length of q bath
ing skirt does not greatly perturb the municipal au-
thorities. And so on, till the Pacific coast is reached,
and there almost anything goes
at would be hard work to persuade any one, even
a New Yorker, that New York is more moral or more
modest than the middle west. Yet it is a fact that
New Workers who have been accustomed to seeing
female bathers concealingly arrayed, not to say
swathed, are amazed at the trans-Appalaehian free
dom of the sands. 1t is a geographical state of mind.
New York thinks nothing at all of semi-nade choruses
in musical shows, but when one Of these shows ira
verses the middle west the wardrobe mistress pru-
IDENTIFY adds to her stock in order to escape the atten-
ton of censorious police and societies for the pres
e~rvation of public morals.
at is a strange quirk of New York provincialism
that it frowns on sensibly and properly dnclad legs
at the seashore while it applauds talcum-tinted knees
that are needlessly displayed behind the footlights."

REDUCE The PRICES.

Instead of taking up the usual appeal of the coal
operators to fill up the coal bin during the dull sea-
son, thereby assisting the poor coal producer to af-
ford the miner a day or two more work during the
week, the press of the country has declined to push
the propaganda and has i~nsolentiy inquired of the
operator when he proposed to cease profteering? And
II he was not aware that the war was long since over
and peace actually declared? And did he not think
that the people had been exploited to about the full
limit the traffic would stand?
The consumer too began expressing somewhat the
same sentiments. He proclaimed that he would suf-
fer the old coal bin to remain vacant. That threats
of shortage in supply when cold weather arrived had
not so much terror for him as the present prices de-
handed by the retailers. He and his fellows had gone
on strike. The cost of coal is outrageous and the ex.
The old war bunk has lost its scare. That old stuff
- all off. Men who deal in coal, mine it and sell 1t
o the customer, may talk themselves pink in the face
in defense of a business that EFFORTS the highest
prices ever known, but they cannot convince the pub
lie that they are not profteering.' II they are not,
then why do they move heaven and earth to head off
legislative inquiry? Why do they not come forward
with their books and figures and prove what they as
sert to be the facts.
There is nothing wrong in the secretaries of the
Interior and commerce securing the information de-
handed by the public about the costs. The old cry
bout the governments undue interference with bust
less don't get the coal producers any sympathy. They
10 not come clean and they do not propose to as long
s they can stave off the day of the showdown.
The very attitude of the coal men, themselves. is
what is casting suspicion upon them. Then when they
maintain an expensive lobby to defeat the govern
nents objects, that is about the last straw. The pub.
&c is long suffering and has patience but it finally
wears out. The coal men are just about due for a
trimming. The season of gouging is at an end, they
had better cooperate in the re~adjustment of prices
nd profits and save, their business. The American
public is up in arms.

TRANSPORTATION AND REVENUES.

The government of the United States built the
Panama canal to provide more convenient and quick
er communication by water between the east and west
sections of the country. There are countless other
advantages and among them cheaper coast-to-coast
transportation for bulky commodities. The federal
government, states and local communities have built
hard surfaced highways, providing among other ben
Gifts cheaper and more convenient transportation for
short hauls.
Al a result of these two public improvements much
business has been taken away from both the trans
continental and short lime railroads.
This is apparently a benefit to the shipper who gets
the lower rate provided by the convenience estab-
lished at government expense; but developments DEM
onstrate that there must be an equalization some
where and that in the end the cheaper means of
transportation is not likely to prove n net gain to
the shipping public. Railroad owners, whether gov
eminent or private, must somehow or other realize
profit or the roads win be abandoned. If the govern
ment sells bonds to raise money to buy the roads, the
taxpayers must pay the interest on the debt as well
as the excessive cost of government operation. If
the railroads lose part of the coast-to-coast and the
short haul traffic, they must realize enough on the
remaining traffic to make up the loss, for it is well
known that they are not now making even a reason
able profit upon the value of their property. To deny
them the right TO make a fair profit is practically con-
fscation, and this the constitution forbids.
This is not arguing that the Panama canal and the
hard surfaced highways should not have been con-
structed. Far from it. Both are modern conveniences,
which are an economic benefit to the nation and the
world. The fact to be kept in mind, is that benefits
of this kind usually, if not always, have their coun-
terbalancing burdens, and people must expect to pay
for the original cost and the upkeep of the canal, as
also of the highways, and, if these new means of
transportation cut into the revenues of the railroads,
for which the government fixes rates, it must be ex-
pected that other rates will be fixed upon a basis
which, in the end, will provide a fair return upon the
investment. The government cannot undertake to
limit profits, without in some manner giving assur-
ance against losses. To do so would be dishonest,
and dishonesty never pays in the end.

BATHING EAST AND WEST.

writing on a strictly summer subject and one that
receives miles of written attention and acres of illus.
tration during the season, the Cleveland Plain Dealer
thus daintily alludes to the bathing fairies from Heil,s
Gate to the Golden State:
AT Atlantic City there is a considerable revolt
against what the revolters consider the old-fogeyism
of the beach rules that prescribe considerable skirts
and complete stockings for bathers not lucky enough
to be males. The tiny tumult calls attention to the
1act that the varying standards of ~propriety in respect
to the beach costume of the female of the species are
almost wholly a matter of geography.
