NICARAGUANS HOLD UP
CENTRAL AMERICA PACT
Clause Dealing With Treaty Which
Was Concluded With This Coun-
try Subjected to Revision.

SAN SALVADOR. Republic of Sal
vador, January 3.-The signing of the
pact creating a union of Centrai
American republics, which has been
the subject of discussion at the Cen
trail American Union congress at San
Jose, Costa Rica, has again been de-
layed through the bolting of the
Nicaraguan delegation, which at the
last moment objected to the clause
dealing with the Bryan -Chamorro
treaty between the United States and
Nicaragua. This necessitated new
discussions and a revision of the
clause.
The Nicaraguans, in accordance
! with their instructions, declared that
| the clause referring to conventions
concluded with foreign nations by
the Central American states was op-
posed to their views.
In the final draft as revised. this
clause, although not mentioning the
Bryan -Chamorro treaty, satisfied the
Nicaraguan proposal, it Is understood
| to the other states. 1t pledges all
states to the fulfllment of their in
ternational obligations entered into
with foreign nations. With reference
| to the Bryan-Chamorro treaty II
merely says that it is not a per.
fected instrument until revised by the
United States Senate in a way that
will not affect or interfere with the
interests and rights Of Salvador. Hon
duras and Costa Rica.
The Nicaraguan delegate. Senor
Castillo, has left San Jose for Man.
aqua to consult with his government
on the revised pact. He has until
January 27 to make known Mica
ragua'S decision.

Porras' New Year Message States
Harding Is Disposed to Remove
Friction Between Countries,

PANAMA. January 1. Confidence
that Panama was capable Of solving
her problems without foreign inter-
ference was expressed in a New Year
message to the people from Presi-
dent Porras today. The presidents
statement was based upon a review of
events during the past year.
In discussing international relations
the president devoted a paragraph to
Taboga Island. which dominates the
Pacific entrance to the Panama canal
He declared the country had saved
almost the entire island, although
recognizing this victory was indefi-
mite, since. Judging from statements in
the United States press. we must re-
main alert to renew our defense"
Declaring the republics financial
condition was highly gratifying, the
president said the present surplus
was more than $2.500,000. and de-
clared this amount was intended for
the carrying out of an ambitious road
building program, which would ex-
tend highways connecting states

The Hartford republican. (Hartford, Ky.) 18??-1926, 1921-12-23

We hear some talk in favor of
again submitting to the voters Of
Ohio county the proposition of a
bond issue for the creation OF a spe-
eial road fund, or proposition for
providing for a special road tax over
a period of a few years for the sane
purpose. The Republican ms, in
mild manner, always given support
to any sort of proposition wherein
there was contained prospect for
the betterment of our pubic high
WAYS. We are not the owner OF an
automobile, neither do we possess
any sort of vehicle to be moved over
the roads, and would pay our proper
tionate share of whatever the sum
might be, if approved by the voters
of the County. But believms that
profit. direct ano undeniable. would
result from the wise and judicious
spending of a moderate sized road
fund in our county we have therefore
been inclined to give the propositions
our support. The Federal Govern
ment has appropriated an immense
fund, for road improvement, to be APP
Dortioned among the various states.
We do not recall and have not the
figures at hand, but remember that
the portion of the fund coming TO
Kentucky is to be somewhere near
$500, 900, and that the state is to
appropriate a like sum maybe, the
total amount to be, by the state, APP
portioned amongst the various Coun-
ties, contingent of course upon the
County putting up a certain sum out
of its own treasury. If we be right,
and we feel reasonably certain that
we are not far in the wrong, II ONO
County is to have any of this money
spent within her confines for the I'M
proyement of her roads she must
raise the required sum in order 10
obtain it. From a selfish standpoint,
leaving out to a great extent, the
good to be derived from road I'M
movement, the amount we invest
would, or might be fairly well spent,
because our people who need work.
the farmers with teams and hundreds
of others would naturally share in
the distribution of the funds by CIV
ing of their labor etc. For every
$4,000 spent amongst us ana ior
our benefit, taxpayers of Ohio County
would perhaps not be called upon TO
nut up more than $500 to $1,000
An Ohio County citizen who would
not take from his own pocket $50 to
S1OO to be spent for improving his
dwelling, barns, fencing etc. when
citizens of some other County were
offering to augment the sum by
$500 or $500, even If he did possess
some sort of improvements that he
had been making answer his purposes
for 25 years or more, would be the
talk of his neighborhood and in all
probability barely escape being the
subject OF an inquest. We are
prone TO talk about and grumble at
what we term high taxes and being
already overburdened, but money
spent for permanent Improvement OF
our roads. especially when so much
of Il comes from outside sources, can
not possibly be a burden on the peo-
pie as a whole, there may be, doubt
less would be few exceptions how
over. IL is a notorious and self-ev-
ident fact that Ohio County cannot
build roads, under the present tax
rate upon existing valuations. II
We are TO have permanent improve
ment Il must be by outside aid and
we cannot have outside aid without
adding TO that offered us,and we can't
