Stop to Think

THAT good roads are great dis
counters of distance.
THAT they shorten distance from
farm to market.
THAT the delivery of farm pro-
ducts to the market at. all times OF
the year is made possible by good
roads.
THAT hey bring the consumer and
the producers closer together.
THAT they develop communities.
THAT they bring in new people.
THAT they are an aid to farming.
THAT they increase the value of
both city and country property.
THAT they make it possible to use
the motor truck for all short hauls.
THAT they cut automobile main
tenanee.
THAT they connect the large pop
ulation centers.
THAT they bring the consumer and
suburban homes and make it posi-
bic for the establishment of poultry,
dairy and truck. farms because of the
convenience of transporting she pro-
ducts to market
THAT good roads mus be kept to
the forefront as one of the most pro-
gressive enterprises to which any
community can direct its energy and
resources.
Good roads are best investments
any community ever made because
good roads build good, prosperous
communities.

American officials have declined to
make any comment on previous re-
ports that such move hy the
European governments was in pros
pect. Under the usual custom fol-
lowed in selling foreign Sucurities in
the United States some private
American financial group would
handle the issue. Such groups as q

the governments involved had hopes
to improve their finances by putting

CHICAGO ANTITRUST
CASE ARGUED HERE

The Sherman antitrust case from
Chicago, charging criminal conspiracy
there between millwork manufactur-
ers. building contractors and union
carpenters to restrain interstate COM
merce in non-union-made doors, sash
and other trim, was argued orally
Friday in the Supreme Court.
William J. Donovan, assistant to
the Attorney General. contended the
evidence showed an unlawful conspir-
acy under which manufacturers were
to monopoliZe the field by exclusion
Of non-union competition from mills
outside the State. He held it showed
contractors were to receive liberal dis
counts for ha ndling millwork of the
union manufacturers and that car

the demand for union carpenters in
mills.
He asserted the decision of the Cir.
cult Court of Appeals. which set aside
A verdict of the Federal Court at Chi
cago. should not be permitted to
stand.
Counsel for the manufacturers and
contractors submitted replies in print
ed briefs Union carpenters were
represented by Charles NJ. Beattie,
who asserted there was no relation
ship whatever between the agree
ments OF the union carpenters under
which they were not to install non
union trim and the arrangements be
tween the manufacturers and con
tractors. He denied there was. any
evidence of conspiracy.

A Matter for Study

Strangely, most individuals are neg
ligent regarding the proper settlement
of their estate affairs. They probably
make will, and name trust company,
but often too little study is given to
legal and business phases which if
properly settled may save their families
hundreds of dollars.
There are economies to be derived by
a resident of New Jersey, from the
