KILL q BIRDS WITH 1 STONE

The Denver Post introduces the
following scheme Of one Of its cit
iEens whereby the Denver poor will
be denied food and fuel in order to
use the funds to build the Moffat
tunnel. which will take five years to
construct. In the meantime while
the tunnel Is being constructed sew
eral thousand residents of north
central Colorado will have to do with
ont transportation for five years
permitted to starve Is it were. Den
yer business men probably are be-
ginning to realize that the Moffat
tunnel is an idl" dream and the Post
In desperation is grabbing this new
scheme in hope Of saving its pet
scheme. The great senile Post is to
be more pittied than blamed for the
following:
Col. A. E. Humphreys. Denver
capitalist. who Is now making mil
lions in the Mexia oil fields, and who
recently announced that he planned
to give away much Of his money to
local charities and missions, will be
asked to build the Moffat tunnel out
of his own purse and give it's yearly
earnings to the poor and needy.
Councilman Louis Straub is the
originator of the idea, and as soon
Is Colonel Humphreys returns to
Denver, Straub intends to discuss the
matter with him.
Colonel Humphreys could build a
permanent memorial to himself by
constructing the Moffat tunnel and
permanently provide for local mis-
sions and charities from the earn
ings of the tunnel. 1t Is suggested.
Councilman Straub has talked the
matter over with w. G. Evans, wide
~ known Moffat tunnel enthusiast,
Mayor Bailey and others, and they
are all convinced that his plan Is an
ideal one If Colonel Humphreys ap-
proves Of 1t. he declares. Mr.. Evans
and other students Of the tunnel
proposed as q connecting link
through the Rockies. for northwest
ern Colorado and Denver and vicin-
lty. estimate that the cost would be
about 100000.
Governor Shoup has announced
that he plans to call the legislature
in snecial session to authorize flood
protection measures for Pueblo and
the creation Of Q bonded district fol
the construction Of the 4o6at tunnel
Councilman Straub and otheri
fsvoring his plan point out that money
given TO the needy now BY Colonel
Humphreys will supply Temporary
wants, but that the money Will moi
last long. where's II he should cor.
sent to build ths tunnel. its yearly
earnings would create . perpetual
fund tor missions and charitable en-
tarprises.
