ured In the transaction.
In the calculations made by bond
experts and road engineers. upon
which this plan is based, the fact that
the yearly income for roads under
present tax laws will be largely in
creased Is not taken into consldera-
ton. We all know that good roads
win bring more automobile and gas
oline taxes and that all values will
grow.
Without a bond issue we shall be
forced to stagger along. building by
piecemeal, paying the same amount
annually as the bond issue would cost,
and carrying the crushing burden OF
bad roads.
Kentucky has been asleep through
all the years that other states have
been actively engaged in road build
ing. We can make no progress until
we do. something big in the matter OF
roads. The plan proposed certainly is
the best that can be devised.
The excuse given by some that they
fear graft in the expenditure Of the
money is good only to keep Kentucky
back. The penitentiary Is open and
yawning for any office holding CRATER
The laws are sufficient to catch and
punish them. All we have to do Is to
execute the law. The suspicion OF
grating is very common in this coun-
try, but very seldom is It well found
ed in Kentucky's state departments.
1t would be very unfortunate II the
fear of graft should prevent Kentucky
from taking the great forward step
contemplated by this bond issue.

The resignation of Mr.. Posey, divis-
ion engineer for the State Road De-
partment, will be received with deep
regret by the people of the Big Sandy
Valley. He is man who does things
and does them as he believes to be
right. His energetic work put the
Mayo Trail and Midland Trail in con-
dition to get aid from the State and
Federal funds ahead Of other projects
in Kentucky because he was ready
sooner with the plans and the local
financing. Offers have been coming to
him from other sources for several
months. with larger salary and oppor-
tunity, and in justice to himself he n
nally decided that he must accept one

The politicians are afraid to speak
out against a bonus for the young SOL
diers Secretary of the Treasury Mel
lon is not politician enough to suit
some Of his associates, so he has warn
ed Congress against passing any such
legislation now. He shows the fabu-
lous cost and asks where the money
is to come from. When a proposition
arises that will add billions to the war
burdens under which the country al
ready is grooming 1t is time to call a
halt. The war is not over yet in all
its phases. Patriotism has not done
its full work and the appeal should
be sounded far and wide for an ex-
tension of time. Give every wounded
soldier all he needs. now and through
out his life Take care of him. Make
him as comfortable as possible. But
not many of the able bodied young
patriots are insisting upon a bonus
with the enormous war debt yet I'M
paid. In later life there will be many
who will need help and the United
States government may safely be
trusted to attend to that
The possibility of four billion dol
lar bond issue to raise money for a
soldier bonus is causing the price of
liberty bonds to decline. If the issue
should come they will decrease very
considerably in price. Victory liberty
bonds have been slightly above par
lately and the other issues ranging
from 90 to 9S. The Victories now are
par and $95.46 to 5000 per 500 for
the other issues.

Just why the Legislature would re-
fuse to allow the people of Kentucky
to vote for bond issue for roads it
is difficult to see. The people have the
right to decide such questions under
our form OF government The Legis-
lature is not assuming any respon-'
sibility in putting it in the peoples
hands. If II is decided that the vote
should be taken in November 1923 in
stead OF 1922 nobody will question the
right to exercise this judgment. But
the proposition should not be withheld
altogether nor delayed until the next
session. two years hence for action.
This bond issue is different from the
usual bond proposition in the most es-
sential point possible. The amount the
people are paying now for roads each
year will pay off this bond issue in 80
years, taking care OF the interest, etc.
The issue OF bonds is simply a means
OF cashing in within years about the
sum that will be paid in anyway in 80
years. This win make possible the
construction of great system OF
roads, through every county, so that
the present generation will get the use
OF them and they win be turned over
in good condition to posterity who will
not have the struggle that we are ex-
periencing in trying to build roads.
The maintenance Of the roads is fig-
