The Arvada enterprise., 1924-03-13

by John E. Walker, former tax ad-
wiser of the U. S. treasury.
According to this report, the coun-
ties of the United States administer
so per cent and the states 40 per
cent Of all the highway funds spent.
Of all highway expenditures, 6O.5
per cent is spent for new or recon-
struction and the balance of 39.5 per
cent for maintenance, amortization
and interest. OF the general tax dol
lar Sc per cent-slightly more than
one-twentieth-is expended for high
ways.
A very interesting angle is brought
out in the statistics which show that
the total taxes levied on motor ve-
hicles are now more than equivalent
to the cost of highway maintenance.
In other words, after the road is
built, the users pay for its upkeep
without cost to the state or county
doing the building.
All transportation together, which
includes all motor vehicles, both pas
senger and freight, all electric rail
ways, all steam railways, and boats
of all kinds pay 81 per cent of the
nations total tax bill, which would
indicate that fair proportion of
what is being spent on highways
comes from highway users direct in
stead Of from the general tax dol
lar contributed by everyone, yet ev-
eryone benefits from highways.
1t is also interesting to note that
of the s1,15O,OO0,OO0 of "highway''
income, represented in the chart
1871 is derived from bonds, 44.2 from
taxation, 1916 from motor fees and
III from federal aid.

ROADS USEFUL ONLY
WHERE THEY ARE SAFE
NEWSPAPER ASSOCIATION
MEMBER NO. 1902

The maximum use of roads can
only come when they are made safe
for maximum use. A dangerous
road will always be less used than
safe one, and road dangerously
used by some will be less used by
others than road wisely used by
all.
At the present time two states
give licenses to drivers without any
examination of any kind. Ask for
it, pay for it-and get it! Drive
anyway, safely, dangerously, drunk
enly; these states apparently do not
care! Ten states have no age limits
on drivers; you can give child Of
five a car and tell him to drive to
town without violating the law.
Naturally, these states do not have
roads as safe as other states which
insist on ability to drive before they
grant license and recognize the fact
that ton and half Of steel at a
high speed is no missile to put in the
hands or the judgment Of a small
child.
One Of the great benefits which
will result from the establishment Of
national highways throughout the ma
ton, will be uniform laws for their
use. Such laws will not in any way
conflict with state laws, for the
states through which the highways
pass will have equal voices in the
making Of national highway laws. 1t
is evident that when a road is ma
tional property the nation is respon-
sible for who shall and who shall not
drive upon it and the speeds at which
driving shall be done. More and
more is it coming to be believed that
great trunk-line highways must be
more than single roads; that they
must have central span for fast go.
ing and other spans for slower 60
ing. The way to make speed safe is
not to hold it down but to make q
place for it. But the immediate
question is not so much safety from
speeding as safety from incompe.
tence of road building, which permits
the dangerous curve, the unfenced
bend near bluff, the too narrow
road, the absence of illumination
etc.
These and the problems of no laws
or poor laws, may be solved in time
under any system, but will be solved
speedily and solved we'll by the estab.
lishment of system of national
highways, great trunk lines, built and
forever maintained by the national
government, which will also super.

clared that when the course finally is
completed it will be one of the best in

JOHNNY M'GINTY
!. and BILL BROWN
TO MEET AGAIN
Signed For Return Go.
At B. A. C. On
April IA

Announcement was made Saturday
afternoon by Matchmaker Evans of
the Birmingham Athletic club, that
Billy Brown, Memphis welter, and
Johnny McGinty, the Erin Earthquake,
had just been signed for a return en-
gagement of 10 rounds at the Birming-
ham Athletic club Monday night. April
IA. Brown, at his own suggestion, will
appear in Birmingham this time on a
60-40 arrangement with McGinty, the
winner to get go and the loser 40.
Billy Brown won friends by the hun
dreds upon his first appearance in
Birmingham, and there are those who
believe that he would have triumphed
over McGinty had he not been handi-
capped on the night he met him. Brown
was suffering from a siege of boils
at that time and couldn't extend him
self, as would otherwise have been the
case. As a result, McGinty won the
decision from the man who had beaten
Dick Adams in New Orleans.
Fans Keen For Bout
Immediately following his contest in
Birmingham, Brown shipped to Mem
phis, loaded his trunks up, caught a
flyer and beat 1t for Hot Springs.
There he started a boiling-ou process,
and after a couple of weeks, after talk
ing the baths daily, he got rid of his.
nice boil crop. Brown wrote Evans
that he was once again In ideal shape
and that he had ditched the boils for
good and all. A crowded house had
seen him perform here against Nc
Ginty and hundreds of fans had petit
the boys together again under more
favorable conditions. Officials con-
sented to do this IL the match could
be arranged. Saturday the papers were
signed and now everything is all set
for another big boxing card.
MeGinty In BETTER Shape
Commenting on his coming scrap,
McGinty dropped into a characteristic
philosophical vein Saturday afternoon
and said: There is something to
Browns statement that he was handi-
capped by boils. 1 realized this on the
night we met, but you can just mark
It down in your little book that, sboiis
or no boils, l am better man than
Billy Brown. I'm no alibi artist, but
1 want to state that on the night that
I beat Brown that /, too, was working
under a handicap You will remember
that / hadn't fought since Adams
broke my nose In New Orleans. The
slowed me up bit and had to train
for the affair on a weeks notice. Con-
sequently I was far from top form
when went in against Brown. 1 eX-
pect the fans noticed this. 1 was a
bit overweight and slow to get started.
Now, however, 1 am in the best shape
of my entire career and 1 feel conf
dent OF repeating when I go against
Brown Monday night week. 1 wouldn't
be a bit surprised IL / didn't wind up
the bout before the tenth round, like
1 did against Adams"
Expect Large Crowd
With the bout assured, Evans Is GO
ing about arranging a great semi-wind-
up show and is combing the city for
the best preliminaries obtainable. He
hopes to make this the best all-around
show ever staged here, as he is ex-
pecting an even larger crowd than the
one which saw McGinty bump Adams
off at the B. A. C. last Monday night.
