KILL THIS BOND ISSUE

The intent pavement trust still has its grip upon the
Republican party, apparently. In spite of the pledge which
the Republicans gave the people prior to the election last
fall there has been no legislation this session requiring open
specifcations for road paving. Two bills were introduced
in the senate with the idea of fulfilling the party's campaign
promise in this particular, but both died in committee.
How long does the party think it can go on fooing the peo-
pie in this manner?
I 1t is to be noticed, however, that while nothing was
done to shake off the strangle hold that the patent pavement
interests have Oh the state, a bill was passed opening the
way for pouring more millions of the taxpayers money into
The Golfers of this patent pavement crowd. The measure
provides for a forty million dollar bond issue to be spent
on permanent pavements for the state highways without
the necessity of competition. Thanks TO the wisdom of the
makers of the state constitution, this enormous grab CALI
not succeed without the approval of the people. 1t is up
to the people to turn it down hard until such time as the
Legislature is willing to provide open specifications as was
promised prior to election.
That the people want good roads is evident and the
patent pavement people are banking on this desire to over
come the prejudice against their excessive prices. AS long
as they can keep control of the party in power SO as to
prevent legislation being passed that will require competi-
ton, they feel that public sentiment will insist upon the
paving going on regardless of what it costs.
isn't it about time for the people to wake UP to this
little game? Why go on feeding this rapacious monopoly
when taxes are SO high and expenditures arg continually
creeping up? AS much as we want good roads we do not
want them badly enough to turn tho bull, IF the forty mil
lions of dollars over to the patent pavement interests.
-ThsA-Repubican Legislators have. chosen to serve the
patent pavement trust. So be it. The people can give them
their answer next November. At the same time the peo-
Die can show that they are not willing to sell their soul for
patent pavements by turning down the $4,000, 600 bond
issue. t~~fa gMA XA+ ~

REAL sTATEsMANsHIP At WASHINGTON

Once in awhile real craftsmanship crops out at Wash
ington. There is so much petty stuff down there that when
something above the average does appear it cannot help
but attract attention.
There was such an occasion on Saturday when Sem
ator Underwood, leader of the minority, arose and read a
letter he had received from Secretary of State Charles T..
Hughes regarding the Four Power treaty which is now
before the senate for ratification. The letter itself was
mastery, and Senator Underwood's presentation thereof
was so far above the petty, narrow, partisan attitude that is
so customary among senators in handling great questions
Of state, that the country arises en- masse and applauds.
The Four Power treaty is one of the greatest docu-
ments that modern civilization has produced. 1t is exactly
in accord with the League of Nations. 1t guarantees peace
of the Pacific, just as the League of Nations would guaran-
tee the peace of the whole world, by safeguarding national
boundaries, thereby removing the most direct cause for
strife.
Opponents of the treaty have tried to make something
mysterious out of the document. Their faith in America
nil. In their opinion this country is always getting the worst
of everything.
But, thank God, there are others who have more faith
and confidence in America. These men of greater faith
and larger vision called a conference to meet in Washing
ton to discuss limitation of armament and to settle some of
the problems that seemed to make armament necessary.
Never before has such q conference been held in such an
open and above-board manner. Everything was done in
the open that could possibly be done. This Four-Power
treaty is one of the results of this conference.
In supporting the treaty against the nagging of these
petty carpers, Secretary Hughes, in his letter to Senator
Underwood, assumed the responsibility for drawing the
document, at the same time he administered a well-de-
served rebuke to those who were criticizing it by saying
that the treaty stood on its merits regardless of who drew
it. If it was a good treaty it made no difference who drew
1t. Senator Underwood, although of a different political
party, strongly backed the secretary of state. The SEN
ator eulogized Mr.. Hughes as a man whose word should
carry with every American, no matter what his politics.
Il have in my hand" Senator Underwood said, presenting
Mr.. Hughes letter, " a letter from a great American, a man
who is entitled to the confidence of his fellow citizens, re-
CARELESS of their political alignment. The letter is from
the man who primarily wrote the treaty, and 1 ask my col
leagues TO listen to it,
That was a big thing for the leader of the Democratic
party in the senate to say. The letter itself was a big thing.
The letter and the manner of its presentation together
bring out a craftsmanship that is seldom seen in Washington
these days.
