Especial to the Kcnncbcc JournaD
Gray, oct. 26.-Maine's Million
Dollar Highway was officially OPEN
ed here today with a parade Of auto
mobiles and several addresses. the
main one being delivered by Paul D.
Sargent, chief engineer OF the State
Highway Commission.
The new highway which is of con-
crete is 80 miles in length and runs
from Portland, through Falmouth,
Cumberland, Gray, New Gloucester,
and Auburn to Lewiston.
Gov. Percival =. Baxter who was
scheduled TO speak, was unable to be
present. but sent word OF cOngratula-
lions by his representative, Henry NJ.
Dunnack, State librarian. Excellent
music was furnished by the Lewiston
Brass Band of Is pieces. An interest
ing feature was the singing by the
entire assembly of Il clever parody on
The Long Lost Trail written for the
occasion. Among the prominent
visitors were: Henry f. Dunnack,
State librarian and representative OF
GOV. Baxter: Mayor Cummings OF
Auburn; Chief of Highway Com
mission Paul Sargent-About 5000
were present.
For four long years the High
way Commission has been looking
forward to this day. said Mr.. Sar-
gent.
Immediately following the favor
able vote for an increased bond issue
in 1919. the commission began max :
ing plans for constructing this road
between Portland and Lewiston and
Auburn" continued Mr.. Sargent.
"AttempS We're made in 1920 to let
contracts for the whole length or the
road, without success. The road IN
Falmouth and Cumberland. however
was put under contract that year.
The next year contract was let for
the section through Gray. and in 1922
the remaining sections in New
Gloucester and Auburn were put un-
der contract This road is without
doubt the best road which the High
way Commission has ever built. The
Commission have felt justified. how
ever. in making considerable eXpen-
diture. on account of the fact that
this road will serve one-siXth OF the
population of the State.
While much criticism has appear
ed in the newspapers on account OF
the expenditure involved in the con-
structon of this highway. the Com
mission have been clear from the
start that the investment here made
would be a paving one for the state.
It is always possible to figure the
dollars and cents value of an I'M
proved highway. As good an eN-
ample as I can give YOU, and one
which is based on experience. is IN

Prices win begin to fan gradually

Friday. president Of Michigan Agtf-
cultural College, addressing local
audience. Predicting prosperity fofs
the United States, President Friday
said that wages are twice as high
as before the war, while the cost OF
living is IS per cent higher.
People don't have to act as eerv.

President Friday. They can make
more money at some other occupa-
ton. That Is democracy. IT has
been brought about by Americas
industrial revolution. Of which we
were unconscious until the war
called 1t TO our attention.
Before the war economists could
prove conclusively that this country
could not possibly devote more than
$4,000 900 900 q year for the. pur-
poses Of carrying on d war. Upon
our entry into the conflict, how
ever, we took 100000 men from
productive occupations and turned
them into soldiers and nanufac-
tured $4,000 000, 900 worth Of sup
plies for military purposes.
I'VE did not realize we had had
an industrial revolution. The
foundation Of this revolution lay in
our taking science and applying IL
to industry. Further, economists
have revolutionized business man.

America has added III much pro
duced wealth to her resources since
1897 as in the entire period before
that time. That is why we. have
