HIGHWAY TOLLS WOULD
Be BIG IN MINNESOTA
Former Mmnesotan Applies
Toll Rates of Southern
State to Minnnesotaa

Minnesota could collect more than
$5,OOO,O00 a month by applying on
its 1000 miles of trunk highways
the road and bridge tolls collected
on road in a certain southern stats;
a former resident Of Minnesota
writes in the state trunk highway
bulletin. !.
"With a few friends, I recently
made an automobile trip to a town
80 miles away to see football game
and we paid $2.1O in road and bridge
tolls" the letter reads. Out Of curl
osity, figured what the same rate
of 1-2 cents a mile would mean on
the average of 710 vehicles using
the so-called Babcock roads back
home. The totals of $174,950 day
or 500, ,491,750 a year may afford
Minnesota auto tax payers (.
something to think about and tolls
here may partly explain why this
state with more than $10O,0O0,O0O
for roads is starting to pull itself out
of the mud and abolish the tolls"
The bulletin adds an example Of
how Minnesota car owners are not
obliged to take generally antiquated
toll schedules to figure big savings
on better roads. Nearly $4,000

and averaging 5000 miles each, it

Curzon Notifies Turks That
KemaliSts Must Recede
From Opposition

Lausanne, Switzerland, Dec. 13--
Marquis Curzon, in behalf of the
allies, today notified the Turks that
the Near East conference here will
be abandoned unless the Kemalists
recede from their opposition to al
lied demands for the protection Of
Christian minorities in Turkish ter
ritories.
/ Marquis Curzon said the Turks
would only be to blame if the con-
ference breaks up on the minority
Question. The Turks must decide
quickly, the English foreign secre-
tary said, whether to join the League
Of Nations Or refuse its assistance
in the Near East settlement.
In threatening abandonment OF
the conference, Curzon asserted he
did SO with the full agreement Of
France and Italy. Ambassador Childs
had previously declared in behalf Of
America that Christians in the Near
East must be protected as well as
the interests Of the United States.
It is understood that the conference
will suspend Immediately if the
Turks do not change their attitude.
