HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT TOP
HEAVY.

The Newport News Timis-lierald
publishes oditorially tabulated
statement taken from the Loudon
County Times, showing the amount
of annual expenditures for public
roads i'll Il number of leading states,
including road funds and salaries of
highway officials in these several
states. This exhibit is interesting and
surprising rs we'll For instance: The
great state Of New York, with q
road fund Of $37, 592,244 (192D pays
a salary to the highway commission
or of $4,000 per year. Pennsylvania,
road fund, 1921, $39,54S,534, high
way commissioner, $4,000. Ohio,
road fund 90 1-2 million, commits
sioners salary, S6,50O.OO; Texas, $685.
100000 road fund, salary. $4,000;
North Carolina, $11,450OOO road
fund, salary, $4,000; California, ST.
600, salary $500; Virginia for 1929,
road fund, $5,76s SGD. Salary of
highway commissioner, $l2,5OOOO.
Presenting that these figures are
correct the question will be asked
why the state of Virginia, with only
little over 1-2 million dollar
should pay more than the great
states of Pennsylvania and New
York, which states have near seven
times as much road money, or twice
as Ohio, whose road fund is S23.
10000, as compared with Virginia's
$5,768,ec: Ohio's commissioner gets
$4,000 i. Vmginias nearly twice MS
much?
Now, add to the commissioners
salary the salaries of clerks, engin-
GERS, book-keepers, etc, nd infinitum,
and some idea may be had of the
vast amount of money spent in Office
and clerical work.
The above figures may be inac,l.
rate or misleading, but if correct, o,
approximately so, "tirs ,.ch is GER
tain," remarks the Times
that unless Virginia is to increase
her road fund by the issuance Of
bonds she will have to reduce
the expenses of the Highway De.
partment. AS the case now stands
1t is very top heavy" Perhaps some
one can explain.

levied, it confessed failure in West
Virginia, where use of United States
troops was necessary to suppress,
what was literally war to unionize
that State. Now the union has tnc
assurance to demand that the coln-
~ give i complee monopoly and trust
TO it's good will.
The United Mine Workers must
think that the President and the
country have short memories. During
the strike President Harding wrote
TO the Governor of Michigan that
the big issue raised by the coal
strike was the assumption of the
power to dictate by the strikers
policy of naturalization of the indus
try. No State in the union would
submit to such plan on the part of
the coal operators, ne President said.
and he added that national lcgisla
ton was necessary to control the
union. Such legislation may well DC
urged on Congress before the unions
action next April.
No monopoly is more odious than
That Of labor. 1t is the elimination of
i"rnmanity toward all other classes.
1t matters not on what promises of
good behavior the monopoly may be
established, because this union is no
torlously faithless. In the words of
PRESIDENT Wilson, written to Presi.
dent Lewis: mo Government, no en-
ployer. no person having any reputa-
ton to protect, can afford to enter
INTO contractual obligations with anv
organization That repeatedly or sys-
temalcally. violaes its contract" Yet
the United Mine Workers in 1920
struck in violation of an agreement
with the operators based OH the find
ings of the Bituminous Coal Com
mission. The defation of war wages
was the real issue then, and peac.. !
was reached temporarily by making
local instead of national agreements. |
Now the national demands are rails.

loyalty and regard for their con-
tracts, the United Mine Workers
would have stood higher in public
esteem, and world have gained a bet

might make.

war. DR.. Hill was first heard of in
Tazewell when he came here under
the Wilson administration and spoke
IN the interest of Liberty Bond

day that probably DIR. Hill had gone
to Texas.
The above squib and scribble ap-
peared in the Graham Daily News
section of the Bluefield Telegraph. in

This should be said, in order to
keep the record straight:
Mr.. Hill was brought here both
times by the Hon. C. Bascom Slemp.
not in the interest of the Liberty

NEW YORK, March 1S.-Knick-

They're coming for everyday use
for women, Next logical step is
from short skirts to Knockers!
Just as surely as the hoopskirt

surely as the hustled skirt became

fun skirt became the hobble skirt.
Just so will the short skirt become
the knicker.

"Hobble skirts? Dangerous!
Short skirts? Sensible.
"Kntckers? - An - they're the

Thus says Ryan-and further:
Copied the Stage.
Women of the ordinary walks OF
life watched stage women display
their legs and win admiration with
their beauty. And they reasoned
each One-why not try it herself?
80. under the influence of the
tPeater, skirts began 20 get shorter
and shorter until they pretty nearly
reached the knees. That is one OF
the best movements for freedom
women have ever made.
Short skirts leave a woman leg

why should she cover her leFs2
