GOOD ROADS WILL CUT
HIGH COST OF LIVING

Springfield, ILL.,, March Good
rUaus in the country viii do mere 10
lower the cost OF high living and more
for the prosperity, comfort, culture
and happiness OF the people than
things fought over in twelve presiden-
tial campaigns. Governor OnYer IL.
Shoup OF Colorado today told mem
bers of the Pixies Peak Ocean to
Ocean highway association at its an
nual meeting here.
THE establishment OF motor truck
express lines in every farming COM
munity will stimulate the production
ing and probably will make public
markets successful in American
cities he continued.
Continuing he declared, industrial
revival is being retarded, we are told,
because of the agricultural situation.
When tine farmer can't buy, the man
ufacturer can't sell. The farmer can't
bly, because he is forced to carry d
large surplus of his products. Check
ing the markets it is found, that do
nestle CONSUMPTION is normal, the
price lew. We have an overproduc-
ton and no place to dispose Of it.
What needs to be done is plain
How to do it is quite another matter
The thing to do is to find market for
the surplus"
Depreciating the fact that the far
mer has been held up as the nations
bankrupt, Governor Shoup declared
that the farmer is no worse off than
men in other lines OF business and is
better Off than many. The farmer,
he continued, although still far from
prosperity has his feet on more Sc
cure economic footing than those ell
gagged in other vocations."
Quoting from government statistics
for 1918, Governor Shoup declared
that ut cost 80 cents per ton per mile
TO haul wheat by wagon as against Is
cents by truck Statistics further
show that it costs on good roads or
hard resistent surfaces, s cents to
haul one ton per mile. On poor roads
this cost increases materially as com
pared to what it would cost if we all
had good roads"
Quoting from a speech by Senator
Beveridge, Governor Shoup declared
that the throwing away of actual pro-
duce because of bad roads or no roads
would build every year forty perma-
nent ocean to ocean highways, such

4 Proper Refusal

sgNHE AMERICAN state department lost no time
Il either in declining the invitation of the presi-
dent of the Genoa conference to attend the proposed
conference at The Hague next month or in making
public the reasons for its declination,' says the Bos-
ton Transcript. Examination OF the invitation dis
closed the fact that although the conference proposes
TO change its base from Genoa to The Hague the
conferees contemplate no change in the basis upon
which Russian affairs would be discussed. Conse-
uuently the reasons that account for the absence Of
the American government from Genoa remain equally
good reasons why it should not participate in the
'scon-iruance u-der n different nomenclature of that
conference at The Hague.
There is more than the merit of alacrity in the
departments reply. There is the additional merit OF
clarity of statement and steadfastness of spirit. The
world will not have to read between the lines of this
state paper TO find a new reminder that it cannot
ment in dealing with the Russian problem until Rus
STA within herself provides the conditions essential
to the restoration of productivity in that country.
"At a time when leadership is lacking in so many
places throughout this great country President Hard
ing and Secretary Hughes can be certain that the
average American is proud of the leadership which
the administration is offering the American people
in relation to European affairs. Our government has
q policy regarding Russia and what is more our
spokesren in foreign affairs have the courage to
adhere to that policy. The terms upon which this
government will act with other governments in assist
ing the rehabilitation of Europe have been repeatedly
stated. When those terms are met Amrican assistance
will be forthcoming. Presently, perhaps. Europe will
come to the conclusion that the American government
means what it says in this matter. When that con-
ciusion has been reached we shall not have to wait
long for the acceptance of our terms. Meantime the
frequency with which new invitations are thrust upon
Washington only %reinforces the wisdom of admins
tration in refusing to scrap the policy of Washington
and reduce the mandate of November, 1920, to a
scrap of paper"

The Proposed Paving

TT is that there should be opposi-
L ton to so urgent a public improvement as street
paving in the southwestern section of the city. Surely
it is needed. All winter long residents have been
complaining of mud and impossible condition of
streets and sidewalks. They have frequently written
their laments to the newspapers of the city. Grum-
blings at the mire through which school children were
compelled to wade have been both loud and long.
The southwestern division is possibly the most neg
lected portion of the city so far as the Improvement
Of streets is concerned. 1t contains a large popula-
ton, much valuable property to rent and a number
Of excellent private homes. All this property. i'm
value with paving. The cost is extremely low, esti-
mated at something like 5000 for the ordinary lot
with ten years in which to pay the assessments.
Property owners opposing the improvement are
standing in their own light, for the argument is alto
gether upon the other side of the question. And
there can be no doubt of the desirability of the
paving.
Ordinarily the Tribune would be the last to urge
any undertaking that would entail an unusual expen-
diture and the creation of a debt upon the people
in times like the present. But this section of the
city is well settled, is improving rapidly, and the
limits will have to be extended, very shortly, to ac-
immediate those desiring to build new homes here.
These people have waded through the mud long
enough. They should have relief. And the wide
awake and progressive citizens should not be held
own best interests.
A majority of the property owners of the proposed
district are undoubtedly willing and anxious to under
take the Improvement. They no doubt see their way
clear to meet the small costs without sacrifice. So
important an Improvement and so desirable a public
convenience in which all will share should not be pre-
vented by captiousness on the part of DIRECTORS.

eles which are the proper subjects OF
Importation There are others whose
status is debatable, but there Is one
question which it ough not to be mecca

much debated in the past three or four
years We refer e h Importation. of

Th,se importalions are now advised
by internationalists for the purpose Of
building Up u export trade. BY buy
ing these foreign competitive producA
they hope to lure h foreigner on TO
buy certain OF our own products. That
is sheer idiocy. for we destroy the
home market for an important domes-
tic product SO rs to try" TO secure
a foreign market for another domestic
product. Even II the scheme should
succeed IL would result in a distinct
loss to the business OF the country as
a unit.
Not only would the producer OF the
product which is thus shut out 81 the
home market suffer a loss. possibly a
total loss, but II would scarcely prove
a great benefit to the producer of the
exported article in question. foods
Which have TO be forced on the market
by any such tactics must necessarily
be sold at a very low margin OF profit.
and in some instances there may be
no such margin. Some OF our amateur
export companies have yet 10 realize
on their frozen credits which repre-
sent export goods forced on foreign
markets.
Ii is high time TO cease paying at
tdntion to the international ccono-
mists. Either they do not know what
they are talking about, or else they are
talking in their own selfish interest
and not for the interest OF the nation.
They tell us that other nations will
not buy OF us II they cannot sell to
US, a statement which we have proved
to be false by publishing statistics
showing hat the volume of our ex-
ports to different countries bear no re-
lation TO ~ imports from them.
People do not mix sentiment with
trade. Other nations sell to US what
thoy can and they buy of us because
they must-because we can best sup
ply their needs. That is the soil de
