New York, Sept. 10-(By A. P)-
With soft coal production reaching
satisfactory levels and with the
hard coal strike practically settled,
interest and business and financial
circles has centered during the past
week in the extent Of industrial re-
covery and the prospects for fall
business. The steel industry, perhaps
the chief sufferer from the strikes,
shows signs Of improvement. The so
per cent Of capacity level OF OPERA
tions to which the industry was re-
duced by the strikes, has been bet

expected. With a continued restric-
ton Of fuel and car supplies, how
ever, the trade is moderate in it's an

Reports on the railroad traffic
movement continue to be reasonably

.EX-G0V. MILLIkEN
AGAINST FULL Time
HIGHWAY C0MM|S'N

Governor Carl E. Milliken last
night issued a statement saying that
he would vote NO" on the act to
create full time highway commits
sion in the election Monday belev-
ing it better to continue the present
efficient organization than to try a
new experiment in the midst of the
great road construction program.
AS one business man has put it,
it is better to have the part-time
services of ten or twenty thousand
dollar men to decide general queS-
tons Of highway policy for the pub
lie than add $l1 900 to the annual
cost of the department and create
three political plums which will be
the objects of ambition for the sal
aries paid" said EX-Gov. Mlliken...
The great and growing interest in
good roads makes us all eager to
have our own roads Euilt first and
this feeling often finds expression in
unjustifiabe criticism of the High
way Commission Their overhead
expense has been critized though in
in fact is is less than in any other
eastern State and less than one
third that in some states. They
have been attacked for not building
gravel roads while in fact they have
had to suit the road to the traffic
it had to bear and have built nine
miles of gravel to one of more ex-
pensive type. They have been urged
to build country roads. Under the
law every dollar Of State road con-
country roads.
Because of climatic and soil con-
ditions and our great road mileage
in proportion to taxable wealth
Names road problem is more severe
than that of any other state. The
present commission has made great
progress, not only in new construc-
ton but in teaching better mainten-
ante methods through the patrol
system 1t would take new COM
mission years to get as we'll inform
ed about road conditions all over
Maine as are the two old members
of the present commission. This is
the form of commission endorsed by
the Bureau Of Public Roads Of
the United States Department of
Agriculture and the form existing in
most Of the states. I shall vote NO"
because I believe that the present
commission under all the circum-
stances has done during the past
nine years a wonderful piece Of work
and that it is better to continue the
present program than to break off
and take leap in the dark"
