Express Confidence in State g

Below is a resolution adopted
recently by the Iron county highway

missioner:
Whereas, In view of the I'M
warranted and unmanly attack that

who, after fifteen years of faithful
and untiring efforts has placed Wis

Roads State" and who is considered
second to no highway engineer in the
United States, we deem it our duty
to refute the attack made on him by
petty politicians and express our
confidence in him.
Therefore, Be 1t Resolved, That
we, the Iron county highway COM
mittee and highway commissioner
hereby express our confidence in Mr..
A. r. Hirst, state highway engineer,
for his honesty and ability. We have
found him fair and honest in all his
dealings with US, and he has, at all
times, guarded the interests of the
state.
Be 1t Further Resolved, That a
copy of this resolution be forwarded
to the governor of Wisconsin, the
Wisconsin state highway commission
and to all county highway COM
mittees of Wisconsin.
Dated at Hurley, Wis, the 9th
day of March, 1924.

PRAISE FOR ASHLAND DISTRICT
BASKET TOURNEY
Principal of Ashland High School
Receives Many Letters of Com
mendation From Participants.

That the recent Ashland district
basket ball tournament was a
success, both financially and in the
sense that everyone taking part was
pleased with it, can hardly be
doubted by anyone who is privileged
to read the many commendatory
letters that Principal Bassford, who
was the tournament president, has
received from participants, says the
Ashland Press.
Principal Bassford received the
following from Harold F. Connors.
principal of the Hurley high school:
coach Melvin and his boys were
uniformly pleased with the reception
accorded them in your city. We
are always satisfied with the
courtesy and craftsmanship of the
Ashland high school. l wish to
thank you for your kindly interest
and to extend to you my congratula-
tons for the efficient manner in
which the tournament was conduct
ed this year"
The financial report of the
tournament shows that receipts
totalled $1,S77.35, the disbursements
totalled $1,144.53, leaving a net
cash balance of $232.82. One-half
of this goes to the state w. |. A. A.

Automobile Take. Pay Federal Aid

Automobile Taxes Pay Federal Aid.
According to statistics compiled
and sent out by the State Road Com
mission of West Virginia, the total
Federal aid bill of the United States
is paid by automobile taxes, with a
comfortable balance left over.
Since 1917. the Federal Govern
ment has collected from the auto
mobile industry, in taxes, the sum of
$589,012,021. In the same period
the total of Federal aid for road
building has been $264,7S2,216, or
only As per cent of the special motor
vehicle and accessory taxes For the
last fiscal year the Government
collected $146,0O0,O0O in these
special taxes, and paid out for
Federal aid to the State only S72,-
600, 900.
Thus, the special motor vehicle and
accessory tax has not only paid all
of the Federal aid on road building
but has left balance in the
Treasury of more than the amount
paid.
