What Ails Gravel Roads.

Idaho's state highway depart
ment, CO. operating with theUnited
States bureau Of public roads, has
started a campaign TO find OUT
what causes a gravel highway to
become corrugated" and how tc
remedy H. Memorandums were
sent to all district engineers 10 the
state, asking them for their theor-
les on the cause and remedy, says
the Statesman.
The bureau of public roads, il
was announced by Fl. w. Gregory,
Idaho highway director, has assign.
ed nationally known scientist to
the task of finding out what m a akes
a gravel highway, after it has been
used several months, look like cor
rugated iron roofing.
Studies made by the Idaho high
way department this year indicate,
Mr.. Gregory said, that the little
ruts across the road are caused by
the impulses of the motor, which
recur in cycles Of four, six or eight,
depending on the number of cylIn-
ders the motor has. "Of course,
he said, "lhcsc impulses cannot be
noticed when riding, but they arc
felt at the tires and recorded on
the highway"
The department has also discov-
cred, he said, that it does 10 good
to attempt to smooth out these
ripples with a "drag." That
process, he says, only loesens
enough dirt to fill the ruts, and the
next car feels the corrugations al
over again.

Rockwell Pleads for Education

l
Boise, Idaho. -.Idaho must
either adopt, and continuously
support definite building program
for all state educational institu-
tions or limit the annual attcn-
dance"
This is the declaration made
last Friday by l. E. Rockwell,
president OF the state board of
education, upon his return from
Ethe board meeting at Moscow,
September Io. Mr.. Rockwell
stopped in Boise to attend to board
business on his way TO his home in
Bellevue, Idaho.
"The program does not have TO
consist of large amount of money
each year." he continued, "but
this state must set aside so much
each year to be used for construct
ing administration and instruction
buildings at its institutions.
Mr.. Rockwell indicated that a
small levy each year would answer
the purpose. Nss3
1.-The board should not have TO
call on the people Of the state TO
pay for dormitories. think that
problem has been solved in the
method now employed at both the
university and the Lewiston state

places dormitories have been built

,any which issues bonds. These
bonds are amortized over period
# years and the rentals Of the
lormitories ultimately pay the
principal and interest.
"All Idaho's sister states Of the
northwest have either building
unds or definitely outlined
programs ofsconstruetion for their
higher educational institutions.
Montana has IS, 900, 900 fund.
Washington has made provision

He lamented the Tact that after
several years of trying, ldaho's
1919 Legislature would give only q
threc-eighths- mill levy for school
building purposes.
'Idaho is doing less than 40
percent OF what is being done lin
sister states" he said, "and at the
same time we are trying TO
compete with them"
The educational board president
referred particularly to two instan-
ces OF the need. Of buildings in
Idaho.

Ireland Prepares to Redeem
Bonds Sold in America

Dublin, June l6.-(By the A. P.)-
A bill is to be introduced into the
Dali this session to carry into effect
the pledge made by Michael Collins
that the Irish government would re-
deem all the Irish Republican bonds.
These bonds, to the amount Of
about $4,000, 1000, were floated in the
United States, in Ireland and else
where, and contain an undertaking
that they would be redeemed six
months after the establishment in
Ireland of an Irish Republic. Mich
ael Collins claimed that the treaty
apart from its form, effectively es-
tablished Irish freedom, and that the
condition on which the bonds were
issued had been practically real
lied.
Despite the difficult Irish finan'
cial position, President cosgrove
as finance minister, has decided that
all the bonds shall be paid off.
