Back To Toll Roads

Back To Toll Roads
: America is already back to the toll
road system.
This is the view of persons who
have studied highway taxation
methods carefully.
At one time in the history Of mo-
toring it was a common occurrence
to be held up at the toll house and
made to pay a fee for the privilege
OF continuing over the road. Now
you pay it to the state highway de-
partments instead Of the private in
terests. and the gasoline filling sta
lions have become the modern toll
houses.
The states are one by one falling
in line in the return of the toll sys-
tenn. Gas taxes are following each
other in quick succession, and an
other state is likely to join the ranks
any day. At the present writing the
tax is running strong in 81 states
and the District Of Columbia.
Only few states still have free
roads, and it is understood that only
the work involved in charging for
. the use of the roads stands as a
stumbling block.
The highways Of New York, New
Jersey. Rhode Island, Michigan, ILL
nois. Iowa and one or two others are
still free for limited period to the
motoristewho is not a resident of the
state. II you are a Pennsylvania or
California car owner, for instance
you can drive across the State OF
New York without paying New York
for the privilege.
You cannot, however, drive
through Pennsylvania or California
without paying a highway toll unless
you carry an extra supply tank OF
gas bought in a Ifon-tax state.
This return to the toll system Is
rapidly becoming universal. When
Missouri inaugurated a gas tax many
car owners got around it by buying
their gas in Kansas. It was good
for Kansas gas dealers, but evident
ly Kansas roads became too popu-
lar for Missouri motorists. Kansas
now charges two cents q gallon tax
which for the average owner Is the
equivalent of toll Of two cents
every fifteen miles.

Increased Sales Herald New
NV Price on Overland

Following closely on the heels OF
the announcement of price reduction
of the Overland six standard sedan,
from $685. to $685. greatly increased
sales and production of the new
Overland standard four-cylinder
sedan at the low price of $655, has
brought a deluge of orders for this
roomy five passenger closed car:
Only by the greatest concentra-
ton on production costs and detail
has WHY'S Overland been able 10
place on the market two door, five,
passenger sedan at such an unheard
of price-way below any other closed
car with sliding gear transmission.
Greeted on all sides by heavy
demand, the advent of the new
Standard sedan marked the first time
in automobile history that a full
size, ve-passenger sedan with slid
ing gear transmission has been Of
fered to the public at the aStound-
ingly low price of $685.. l.
A beautiful body with long, sweep
ing lines, narrow front and sweeping
panelled- effect rear windows adj
greatly to the appearance Of this
popular model produced by WHY'S
Overland Combined with the
beauty of the two door, long-lined
body effect. is the accessibility to the
rear seat of the Standard sedan
which has extra wide doors.
Easy riding qualities, so apparent
in the other models of WHY'S Over
lands four cylinder line, are incor-
porated in the new Standard sedan.
The famous patented triplex spring
is used in the new model, being pin
ion hung to absorb all heavy road
shocks and insure comfort to the
passengers. Deep and heavy cushions,
backed by specially constructed coil
springs, add greatly to the comfort
of the car, and beautiful cloth up
holstery and finely finished hardware
make for. beauty and simplicity of
the interior fittings.
The power plant Of the new Stand
ard sedan is the same four cylinder
motor that has long created such a
profound respect in the public's
mind as being associated with the
Overland four line. It's motor de-
velops 27 horsepower with more than
enough reserve power to carry over
the steepest grades, and with speed
to burn. The success of the Over
land four motor, known all over the
world, is a guarantee of the per-
Torrance of the new Overland
standard sedan in the hands of it's
owners.
Heavy duty axles of molybdenum
steel. greater rigidity and strength
| in the chassis parts, and a motor
that has proven its worth in years
of service, combine to make this new
| model one of the fastest selling cars
| of the WHY'S Overland line. Already

the favorable impression recorded by
buyers at it's announcement and its
| greater value and durability are set

to supply American car owners with
gasoline are the producing opera
tions of the Texas Company which,
at the close of 1924, had 2,751 pro-
duclng wells in the United States
and 20 more in Mexico. In addition,
the company purchased nearly 81
million barrels of crude oil in the
U. S. and Mexico. 1t requires l.423.-

VALUE OF LITERATURE.
Librarian Urges Teaching
American Authors.

American literature should be EN-.
ployed In the curricula Of American
colleges and universities as a deterrent
to radical tendencies that are working
against American ideals and institu-
tions. Prof. William l.. Corbin, libra
rian of the Smithsonian Institution
who recently was a professor of Eng
lish at the Boston University. declared
yesterday in an address before the
Society of the Danes of the Loyal
Legion at the home Of Mrs. Frank B.
King.
American literature is inferior to the
literature of the English and that of
some other nations. he said, but 1t has
real worth and should be given an i'm
portant place in the curricula of the
American colleges.
Our literature Is one Of the chief
ways in which our national spirit has
revealed ITSELF" he said. "It is an ex-
preston of our ideals, an interpreta-
ton Of our institutions, and In the
hands of the right teachers can be
made a valuable means Of training the
young people of our country In the
knowledge and love of American prin-
ciples, and so prepare them for more
