Longest One-Fare Car
Ride In World. Chicago

Chicago. Aug. 9.--(P)-The longest
street car ride in the world for one
fare of seven cents may be had in
Chicago.
From the south city limits. with
its glimpses Of green farms, to the

Eight transfers are necessary.
The route covers variety of
scenery. 1t passes Wolf Lake south

White City, an amusement park,
passes near the Armour Institute of
Technology, within a block Of the
Coliseum, near the famous Hull
House, passes Douglas Park, Garfield
Park, Humbolt Park, and near hide

to service as was Mr.. Lannigan, ana
as were many Of his predecessors.
The Commission was created by a
special act of the legislature in 1913
and II we recall correctly the original
board comprised: the late Colonel
William M. Aver Of Oakland, Philip
Deering, and Lyman II. Nelson, of
Portland. Paul D. Sargent, a Maine
boy, who was devoted all Of his life
to road engineering, and who at the
time of the creation of the Commits
sion was in the Federal employ at
Washington, was recalled to Maine
and was elected to the important
position Of chief engineer. These
men, Col. Aver, Phil" Deering. Ly-
man Nelson and Paul Sargent, laid
the foundation upon which Names
road system has been built. Others
who have come afterward have but
followed out the policy which was
established by these men in 1913.
There remains to be built but a
very small percentage of the state
roads as laid out in 1913 and in ad-
dition to this miles upon miles OF
state aid and third class highway
have been constructed. During all
this period Mr.. Sargent has stuck to
his post and the wonderful progress
which has been made in road con-
struction is q monument to his skill
and perseverance. He has his critics
at home of course, but in the outside
world he stands high in road en-
cheering circles. The Highway
Commission has spent millions OF
dollars in the last thirteen years ana
must spend millions more in the
wears to come. Roads which were
adequately built ten years ago VIII
not stand up under the present tra1-
fic. Many of them must be Wldeneu
and reconstructed to meet the pres
ent conditions which will prevail IN
the next few years. The salary OF
the members of the Highway Com
mission remains at the same hgure
as when the board was created IN
1914 one thousand dollars year and
travelling expenses, while the wolh
and the responsibilities are constant
" increasing. A few years ago a
movement was started to abolish
this present commission, when
works only under a part time basls
and TO create a full time commls-
sjon with a salary which would De
somewhere in accord with the duties
of the Job. This, however, was more
or less of a political move and wnile
the proposed act went through inc
legislature it was defeated by the
people in a referendum. The time Is
fast approaching however, when the
people will demand that the duties
of this board be performed by men
who are fitted by experience and by
training to assume these responsible
tiles. In order to secure such men,
however, adequate salaries must go
with the position and the men who
accept the Office must be In a posi-
ton to give their entire attention to
the work. The State Highway Com
mission, has in years past priced
itself that the board has kept itself
free from political influence, but at
the present time there is suspicion
in some quarters that politics, which
have always pervaded other offices,
is creeping into the highway depart
ment. with the result that the eff
ficiency of the various divisions is
greatly impaired.

A STATE RAILROAD

First thought might suggest that
If State wished to build q railroad
out of its own money the Interstate
Commerce Commission should not
assume to say anything about the
matter. However. the responsibility
Of fixing freight rates rests on the
Commission and that body wants all
the particulars.
The railroad Is one which the
State Of North Carolina has voted to
build from a point in that State to a
point in Tennessee. The Commits
sion asks for more definite informa-
ton as to costs and terms.
Under the rail act the railroads
are permitted to have and Y per-
cent of their aggregate value. as a
fair return. What would be the
value of. this North Carolina road?
That question is bound to come up
for the politicians have discovered
that the railroads, Notwithstanding
increased competition with the
motor, are for the most part i'm
proving in financial condition. The
employee has his hand out for more
wages; the ax-collector is smiling
around and this proposed new rail-
road to be built by State would
hardly be exempt from questioning.
The Commission would be informed.
The state may be able to estimate
the cost of building, but it's estimates
Of cost of operating would be open
to question.

trophy for which the men will COM
pete is a golden horseshoe.
