Of comment On its remarks about
Chairman Philips letter. Almost ey-
erybody thinks the letter was raw and
the Stars remarks fitted the case;
others, that it would have been better
policy to have kept quiet until it was
seen how much the road department
would do for this county.
There is more than one definition of
policy One means the line of thought,
speech and action decided upon by
nation, party, corporation, firm,
newspaper or even an Individual
something ike consistency. The other
means by seeming acquiescence, IA
vors. fattery and other false demea-
nor, TO try to get something out of
somebody else.
There is no use in using this va
riety of policy toward a politician. It
viii only encourage him to impose on
you further. The way to make him
favor you is to make him afraid of
you
We heard something when Governor
Hardee came into Office about taking
the road department out of politics.
You can't take any government de-
partment out of politics any more
than you can take hell out of its fires.
Politics is one of the elements of life.
It is not only in the parties-it is in
the churches and schools, the clubs
and the lodges-even in the average
family you viii find factions.
The Star doesn't object to a good
highway along the top of the state
from Pensacola to Jacksonville. 1t
thinks this is logical and necessary
thing. But it does object to the road
department using the states money
to improve another road down the
East Coast. The East Coast is already
famed for its good roads The Star
thinks the next road should be down
the center of the state. from Live Oak
or Lake City, thru Gainesville and
Ocala to Leesburg. This would con-
meet the center of the state with the
north and south and both coasts,
which already have good roads, and
make good system for the state.
There will be an election next year
and the conduct of state affairs will
depend principally on the lower house
Of the legislature.

OCALA Is TO HAVE
A PROMISING INDUSTRY

The "Sure Shot" Timber Killer Co.
is the name of new enterprise to be
opened in Ocala. The new company
will manufacture a chemical liquid
preparation for the purpose of killing
trees, stumps. sprouts, roots, grass
and weeds. The officers of the COM
pany are E. H. Hopkins, Reddick,
president; S. T. Sistrunk, Ocala, vice
president; John Dozier, Ocala, secre-
tary and treasurer; H. l. Summerfeld,
Memphis, Tenn, director. The new
concern has secured exclusive manu-
featuring and sales rights for Flor
ida and Cuba. The patent rights and
trade mark of the "Sure Shot" prepa-
ration are owned by the Summerield
Bros, of Memphis 1t is claimed that
the preparation will kill trees in 55
days. The liquid will be shipped in
two to five-gallon containers, and the
officers of the company announce that
they expect to begin making ship
ments from Ocala on Sept. 1st

GO TO JACKSONVILLE

The secretary of the board of trade
has sent out letters to number of
our citizens, asking them to attend
the meeting of the state road depart
ment in Jacksonville Monday, at
which meeting the department, he
says, is expected to decide in what
way it win assist Marion in the con-
strllction of state roads two and five
thru the county.
After seeing the letter of Chairman
Philips of Aug. 8 to Commissioner
Meffert of this county, we are rather
dubious about the department giving
help to Marion. In part, it said:
III suggest that you get your data
as to the amount of money you will
spend on this road, condition of the
road. its length, available materials
for road building, and other pertinent
matters, in shape so that they can be
submitted to the board. This is to be
strictly business meeting and it will
not be necessary for. you to have
big delegation here. The truth is, the
larger the delegation the less amount
of good is accomplished called the
meeting to be held in Jacksonville for
the reason that I found majority of
the members preferred to meet in
Jacksonville and most of them know
all the conditions of this road, so it
will not be necessary to go over it
personally"
This letter has angered a number
of our citizens, and we have not seen
one who has not at elast conceded that
it was lacking in courtesy. 1t is hard
to put any construction on it except
that members of the road department
have already made up their minds
and they do not think much of Mar
ion county anyhow.
As aforesaid, we think Chairman
Philips was sincere when he spoke of
a meeting of the members of the de-
partment in Ocala, but if ne will take
his letter and read it, trying to put
himself in the place of the man who
received it, we are almost sure he will
agre with the people of Marion that it
is discourteous, and looks like infiu-
ence hostile to our county has been
brought to bear on him.
We would advise as many of Mar
IONS citizens as can go to Jackson
Vile next Monday to go and appear
before the department and try to i'm
press on it that while our people are
divided among themselves on some
subjects that they are united when
our county is sighted or imposed on.

ASSESSMENT NOT
 GREATLY REDUCED

Little Rock, Oct. 7.-Alarming state ments to the effect that there will De Ia reduction of $100,000,O00 or more in the assessed valuation of Arkan- sas property are discounted by figures given out by the Arkansas tax con- mission.
 Fifty-eig counties, which have SO far filed their assessment abstracts, show a total of $423, ,S32,16 for 1921, as compared with $440,431 ,415 for the same counties in the year 1920. This shows a decrease of only S16,599, ,254, or 3.78 per cent.
 The F counties not yet reported are estimated to show a decrease of 1 per cent, which will make the net de- crease for the whole state only $23.- 479,040.
 The county assessments include the assessment of public utilities made by the state tax commission, which show a decrease of $1,3S5,56 from last year.

placed at excessive prices in certain countries before the recovery of their export trade. Conditions of trade in these countries must be restored to normal. When they have been re- stored the exchanges will take care of themselves, he said.
 Sir Drummond warned the bankers that restricting of the credit of European countries means an inevit- able shrinkage of exports from the United States or other creditor nations and continued stagnation of foreign trade.
 Sir Drummond suggested the forma- tion of National Export Corporations in each of the lending countries, Unlt- ed States, England, France and Italy and others, backed by pro rata guar antee of the governments, banks and other financial institutions and said that such concerns if properly manag- ed should allow for normal foreign trade in as simple and effective a manner as the banks now handle do- mestic trade.

ARKANSAS
 TO BE FIRST IN OIL

Little Rock, Oct. 7.-Eminent geolo- gists claim that Arkansas will, with another year, become the leading oil and gas producing state of the United States. Arkansas has jumped to fourth position and oil experts as- sert that it will be third by the first of next year. The increase in price of crude oil has been an incentive to development and a number of wells which have not been producing, have resumed pumping. At the present time Texas, Louisiana and Oklahom1 are the only states which exceed Ar
 kansas in the production of oil. Tine
 Fl Dorado natural gas is heavy with
 gasoline and 1000 cubic feet will yield two gallons of gasoline. The
 Fl Dorado crude oil contains an aver age of 26 per cent gasoline and 3 gravity test of 37.5 at 60 decrees.
 The Crawford county gas has an exceptionally high heat value and ? 900 cubic feet of it is equal to ton of coal. Gas is supplied to factories in the Fort Smith district at 10 cents per thousand cubic feet, consequently these establishment secure fuel at the price of coal at 20 cents a ton. As the state law prohibits the use of more than 20 per cent of the daily flow ot a gas we'll, Fort Smith factories vii
 have cheap fuel for many years t7 come. Only one-fourth of the possible
 output of the Fort Smith gas wells
 is now consumed and the border city will be quite manufacturing center when the other three-fourths is pu, into use. One gas we'll in the Craw.
 word county field has been flowing for five years, a yield of over 2,000.0OO
 cubic feet or the equivalent of 100,. 900 tons of coal It is still flowing
 at the rate of 100000 feet daily.

PRESENTS FINANCE
 PLAN TO BANKERS
fBy the Associated Press)

Los Angeles, Oct. 6.-The Ter Meu- len bond scheme for the relief of war torn nations and new states will melt frozen credits," allow creditor na- tions to extend material help, revive the productive power of countries uo- set by the war and will restor normal oversea trading, said Sir D. Drum. mond Fraser, of London, organizer of the plan for the league of nations, II, an address delivered here today be- fore the American Bankers Associa- ton.
 He emphasized the following points : It will re-awaken the dormant corfi- dence in the ability of importers in war stricken countries to pay their way. Governments may keep expenoi. lures within their revenue. Revenue producing assets of borrowing coun. tries may be mobilized for the pur. chase of essential imports which ir turn will restore the buying power of those countries. Lending countrie, of which the United States is tn. most important may secure, with ! collateral bond, safe outlet for ex ports.
 The scheme does not attempt tc stabilize exchanges. These were dis located because war stocks were re
