QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
ABOUT THE
PROPOSED ROAD BOND ISSUE

Q. Can this Federal and State
aid be gotten in any other way ex-
cept by putting up our fourth2
A. According to Mr.. Boggs, State
Highway Engineer, and Mr.. Green
Garrett, Chairman of the State
Highway Commission, it positively
cannot. They will probably he here
during this campaign and will tell
you the same. 4 letter to either of
them would probably bring you much
useful information. They said in a
recent speech here that there was
more calls for this money than they
could possibly take care of. Some
counties are, bidding for it on Il
fifty fifty basis. Mr.. Green Garrett
said that the completion of the Mid
land Trail through the Safe was one
of his pet projects and he would lik,
TO see us fix the matter up so that
he could contract with us before his
term of Office expires, Jan. 1St, 1923.
Q. Why do this now? Why not
put it off till some other time.
\. We have no assurance that
we can again get State and Federal
aid. Mr.. Garrett is our friend in the
matter and wants us to help Oursel-
YES. His successor will be a man
from Camel City in Morgan county
on the Ky. and Va. Trail, a new
project extending from Winchester
TO Pound Gap. And perhaps he
would not be interested in this road
project of ours.
q. Is it a fact that more money
will be spent in the county than is
taken from it!
A. 1t is. On the Midland Trail
project the taxpayers of Bath coun-
ty will pay in thirty years about
Sl50,000 and interest on the OUT
standing bonds during that time re-
firing them as rapidly as possible.
The Federal and State government
will spend in the county at the time
the work is done about 60 per cent.
of the total or approximately $780,
600. This money is paid for labor
of men and teams and will he put in
circulation in this county at once.
Owingsville outlook., 1922-07-20

Q. What is the amount of the
proposed bond issue!
A. The total amount as submitted
10 the voters at the election on Sep
tember 10th will he for $500, 900.
Q. If the bond issue should carry
when is it proposed that the bonds
will be issued!
4. As needed to cover the cost or
construction of hard surface road
work.
Q. Where and how will this mon
ey be used!
A. The Fiscal Court will make an
order showing Just how the money
will he spent and where, and this
order is not subject to change by
any subsequent Fiscal Court. 1t has
the force and effect of a contract
and has been so adjudged by the
Court of Appeals. The first order
will he for bonds to cover the coun-
tvs share of construction work on
the Midland Trail and will probably
lie for $l5O,OOO.
Q. Will the county get financial
help from other sources?
A. On roads approved for Federal
and State aid the county will put
up one fourth of the total cost. On
the Midland Trail the Federal gov
ernment will put up 81, the State 81
and the county 81. Thus you see
the Federal and State government
will put up 3 to our l. In other
words on the total Midland Trail
project through Bath county which
i about 20 miles and will cost about
$4,000 a mile or a total of about
100000, the Federal and State gov
, ernments pay about $45O,O00 of the
entire cost and then maintain them
henceforth. ., ...
Q. When do We pay for our part
of the work?
A. The work will probably be
done in sections and when a section
is completed and approved by the
State Highway Engineer, they will
pay their part and We will pay ours.
Bonds will be issued only as neces-
airy to pay this Indebtedness.
Owingsville outlook., 1922-07-20

q. Do | pay any kind of road
tax at present for which | get moth
ing!
A. You do. Look at your tax re-
ccipt and you will find that you are
paying taxes into the State road
fund that is being paid out for work
in other counties. If you are an
auto owner you are paying for
license to the tune of about $3.50
TO $50 depending on the kind of car
and this is being spent on State aid
road work throughout the State and
you are getting none of it.
Q. What will become of the pres
ent road fund in the event that the
road bond issue should carry!
\. 1t will be spent on the balance
of the roads of the county. With
this main artery out of the way ana
maintained by the government there
will be large road fund to be use1
on the other roads of the county,
bringing them up to a higher stand
ard of efficiency. There is no rea-
son why Bath county should not
then have Il system of roadways
second to none.
Owingsville outlook., 1922-07-20

Q. What is this going to cost me?
A. If you only pay poll tax it will
cost you nothing? If the bonds
were all issued at once it would cost
you more than the figure here named,
or if it were not for the fact that
the payment is made over a period
of thirty years it would also cost
you more. A conservative estimate
is that it will increase your taxes
about One-sixth. The law does not
allow an increase of over zoe on the
hundred assessed valuation and it
whl not likely take over Zoe on the
hundred at the most in any one year.
=, q. Can the Midland Trail in any
event be built through any other
section of Bath county!
A. 1t positively cannot. The Nat
ional government will not approve
for Federal aid any road that does
not run through a County Seat.

MADISON, Jan. 1.-Two coopera-

makers are involved in action begun
today by the Department of Markets
in furtherance Of its power to stop

AFTER STANDARD OIL

MADISON, Jan. 10-Department
of Markets against Standard Oil
company is the title of the first ac-
ton to be brought under the unfair
competition section of the new mar
keting law.
Complaint in this matter was serv-
ed at the Milwaukee Office of the cor
poration Monday afternoon by Alvin
C. Refs, Counsel for the Department
of Markets, who is in charge of the
case.
The gist of the complaint is that
the Standard Oil company has lessen
edand hindered competition through
out the state by its practice of SELL
ing gasoline to garage men at dis
criminatory price. Evidence of
this method of competition has been
collected b ythe Department of Mar
kets during the past two months
through it's investigator. Paul Pres
sentine, former director of the rent
bureau in Milwaukee.
Alleging that such practices
amounted to '.'rebating, illegal con-
spiracies and combination" and were
''fraught with tendencies of creating
fostering and perpetuating a mono
poly" petition was filed with the De-
pars.nent of Markets on October 26,
1921, by one the independent oil CON-
panies, of which there are over sixty
in the state, Wisconsin being the
strongest Independent state in the
country. This petition emphasizes
that "in no instance has the practice
hereinbefore mentioned, lessened the
price of gasoline to the public what
ever, and that the said practices are
not calculatd or intended to reduce
the price to the consumer, but on the
contrary, to destroy competition and
create and foster an absolute mono
poly"
Public hearing upon the charges
in this case will begin at $3.50 A. M
on Tuesday, February z, at the office
of the Department of Markets
Madison.
Violation of lawful order of the
Department of Markets under its un.
fair competition power is punishable
by $4,000 fine for each offense or by
FORGETTING of the corporations char
ter or license to do business in the
state.
