with his many friends here and let
it be known that he was very much
interested in the project Of making
Government Park out of the

The idea of making this a Govern

longs to Colin. P. Wise of this city

papers took it up and looked on the
project favorably of turning this
piece of ground into a National

prominence.
The grounds now belong to the

tween 5000 and 1000 acres, which

NECESSARY, SAYS CORBIN TIMES

The Corbin Times calls for cheers
on account of the fact that the City
of Corbin will work on its streets
and especially on Main Street where
the asphalt has become threadbare
and "holy"-the Times has ceased
to approve of its condition. 1t says
that the children will be able to
come uptown at night without hav-
ing to bring a lantern and rope to
be prepared for eventualities.

which has graduated into the class

MOSS WOULD GO
BACK TO SENATE

Senator White L. Moss, of Pine
Vile, was in Louisville yesterday on
his way home from Sturgis, where
he made a good road speach. Sena-
tor Moss, who is author of the pres
ent primary road law ofKentucky,
and also was the propounder of the
$50, 100000 road bond bill which
was defeated in the Senate at the
1922 session, said that he had de-
cided to besome a candidate for re-
election from the district composed
Of Bell, Knox and Laurel counties.
Louisville Herald.
The Advocate is glad to know
that Senator Moss has decided defi-
nitely to return to the Senate. The
need for good roads thruout this
whole section is so great, that to
have this protagonist of good roads
continually at work, is of the great
est Importance. Those who believe
that we shall be content with the
improved national highways that
are to run through the various
counties have another think coming.
When it has been demonstrate
what such roads mean to the COM
munities fortunate enough to poss-
ess them, there will be an insistent
demand for more of them to cover
the rest of the county.
There are many children who sell
dom move more than a few miles
from the farm on which they we're
born. going to school with more or
less regularity and never getting as
far as the town. There are even
grown-ups who visit the towns so
seldom that they lose all touch of
life with the outside.
The pulsation of the human blood
throughout the whole body is Rece-
ssary to good health and no one may
stay on the farm year after year
and attain the best mentally.
With a good pathway leading to
town from the farm, the invitation
to go there would become too strong
to resist and the farmers wife who
now does much of her shopping
through her husband and has there
fore to accept his taste in purchases,
would herself come to town and buy
what most suited her. This would
inevitably lead to better business
fer the merchants, especially as the
wife would be able to bring the
wherewithal with her with which to
buy.
We talk about our Anglo-Saxon
blood and brains, but it is impos-
sible for them to do their best work
without easier contact with what is
going on in the way of progress.
The way of the Roman empire
was over good roads, many of them
being in existence today and the
way to education and general pro-
gress for our people lies over good
roads.
Let us stick to men like Moss and
Robsion who are working for them
tooth and claw.

DOUBLE TRACK FROM
BAILEY SWITCH TO PINEVILLE

Double tracking of the L. & N.
railroad from Bailey Switch, Just
below Heidrick, Knox County, to
Pineville, about Is miles, was an
nounced here Saturday by Senator
White L. Moss, who got the inform
alton, he said, from o. B. Hollings-
worth, of Middlesboro, superintend-
ent of the Cumberland division.
Advertisement for bids for the
big job, which will cost approxi-
mately S2,000,OOO, will be let i'm
mediately, Mr.. Hollingsworth said
as quoted by Mr.. Moss, and the work
will be completed in about eighteen
months. The proposed new double
tracking, when completed, will give
the L. & N. double track facilities
from Corbin, the junction point with
the main line, to Pineville, a dis
tance of 81 miles, and will increase
the capacity of the road 100 per
cent in handling of coal shipments
from the Bell and Harlan fields, ac-
cording to estimate of Mr. Hollings-
worth.
One thousand cars a day is as
much of a load as the L. & N. has
been able to handle thru the divi-
sion in the past because of the sin
gle track congestion between Pine
vile and Bailey Switch, and with
the new double track completed,
this number can be largely increas-
ed.
The large majority of the L. G. n.
tonnage over the Cumberland divi-
sion originates in Harlan county,
and the maximum tonnage cannot
be hauled out of this field until the
present road is doubled tracked we'll
up into the Harlan field and many
believe and all hope that the double
tracking will be continued on up the
Parlan road as soon as the Bailey
Switch extension reaches Pineville.
Much engineering work has been
done in the Cumberland field in re-
cent years preparing for the time
when the road could see it's way to
build double tracks into the Harlan
coal fields. The cost of the second
track following the present Cumber-
land river line has been estimated;
also that of a second line down
Straight Greek, crossing the noun
tain from the present line up about
Wilhoit. This route, engineers say,
would reduce the Pineville-Wilhoit
mileage, approximately thirty-four
miles along the Cumberland river
route by nearly ten miles, and with
six miles already constructed to Ket-
tie Island, would reduce the actual
construction on the Straight Creek
route to approximately eighteen
miles, to provide a double track to
Wilhoit, as compared to "a miles by
following the present river route.
Also a survey has been made cross
ing Pine Mountain and Kentucky
Ridge. then going down the Red
Bird to the Kentucky river and out
by Beattyville, but the estimated
cost Of this route has never been an
nounced by L. & N. officials.-Pine-
