COMPLETES SERIES HEARINGS
HIGHWAY ESTIMATES PRESENTED

work Of the State Highway Commits
sion were explained by Chief Engin-
eer Sargent. The Commission request
ed total of s2,6OO,OOO for the two
coming fiscal periods, which amount
must be secured by new legislation
from other sources than those now
provided by the statut :.
Regarding the 100000 which
should be expended for road main
tenance during each of the two com i
ing fiscal periods. Mr.. Sergeant stat
ed that this would allow for carrying
the ordinary patrol maintenance and
gradually strengthening and resur-
facing sections Of State highway
which are now inadequate to carry
the increased traffic brought upon
them since they We're originally con-
structed. Several sections of State
highway which were built with a
gravel surface should be replaced
with a hard pavement to adequately
meet the needs Of traffic and this re-
placement should be properly charged
70 maintenance.
If sufficient funds are to be forth
coming to meet these needs, addi j.
tional sources Of revenue must be
found. The three sources open are a
direct State tax, increased automobile
fees. or a gasoline tax.
The Commission believe that all
citizens Of Maine will agree that the
States investments in State and
State aid highways should be protec-
ted by proper maintenance.
Improvement Of State Roads
At the present time the statue pro-
vides for a direct appropriation OF
100000 and that this amount be sup.
plemented by an appropriation Of
100000 from the highway mill tag
fund. said Mr.. Sargent. In 1921 ap.
plications were received for State ait
amounting to $4,000. An additional
$4,000 had been provided by the
legislature to bridge over the 81,
month period incident to change il
the fiscal year. making $650.0o0 avail.
able for State aid for that period. The
Commission was, therefore, short OF
funds to meet the requests for State
aid to the extent Of $4,000 and ir
consequence about 100000 appropri.
ated by towns for the purpose of Sc.
curing State aid was not expended

Modes vs.. Morals Discussed in New
Warner PhotopIay-Character and
Star Of "Why Girls Leave Home"
Give Varied Views.
Is an evening gown the garb of
degradation?
Without hesitation most of us
would say that it is not. but the stern
parent in "Why Girls Leave Home
which will be shown at the Opera
House tomorrow and Saturday, is
firm in the belief that it is sham
and ingenious mode of revealing the
back of women. In direct contrast
to this assertion Anna @. Nilsson,
who is the featured player in the
screen play, contends that there is
nothing suggestive about an evening
gown. and that furthermore it serves
to make women more attractive in
the eyes of their admirers.
practically all of a woman's life
is centered on being attractive to
either her husband or intimate
friends" said Miss Nilsson, smiling
demurely. Surely, if we take away
the right of a woman to look her
best, we rob her of the only possess
sion with which to hold her man.
But evening gowns are not to be
despised In the picture my father
sternly objects to my wearing the
gown simply because he is an old
Fashioned, minded person
whose foresight has never gone be-
yond the four walls of his home. The
broader viewpoint on this question
can be brought about by education
and religion, and by a saner and
mere appreciative consideration Of
their daughters problem by the par
ents."
Prominent members of the cast
supporting Miss Nilsson include
Claude King, Julia Swayne Gordon,
Maurine Powers, Colt Albertson,
George Lessey, Dan Mason, Kate
Blanke, Kathryn Perry (Mrs. Owen
Moore) and others of prominence in
the screen world. The production
