Editor Gateway:
 In your write-up of Sunday nights basketball game you have given me all the credit of winning the game, and I want to say just few words to put you right I was only one of the seven boys that com pose our team but only five of the seven got chance to play but the other six boys besides myself played just as hard as I did and should be given the same amount of praise as was given, for we fought our best to win the glory for our colors the Blue and White and for one man, and that man is Mr. Bath, our coach It was just my good duck to have the breaks come in my favor but without Francis, our tower of strength in cen ter and Captain Howard, the brains of the team, to figure out the plays and brother Guy, whom it seems can always get the ball back for us when we loose it, and is always there to shoot them long shots for us, why if he had half the luck I had the score would have been 100 for us Then there is Jack; if you think that pal of mine didn't play one grand game you just think again. We all did our very best and should all share the same amount of glory
 Thanking you am yours very truly,
 Raymond Manthey.

SHORTER HIGHWAYS
SAVING MILLIONS
MANY MILES ELIMINATED FROM
STATE TRUNK ROUTES BY
RELOCATION AND STRAIGHT
ENING.

A saving of $5,OOO,OOO is being
made to motorists of Minnesota this
year by elimination Of crooked and
round about stretches of trunk high
way, according to figures compiled
by the Minnesota Highway depart
ment. A bulletin issued by the de-
partment gives some interesting fig
ures on mileage of routes near Red
wood County.
A total reduction of 24O miles has
been made in the seventy routes in
the trunk highway system, according
to the bulletin. In some cases routes
have been entirely relocated between
two points, while in other cases they
have merely been Strengthened by
taking out long turns and sharp cor
ners. But since the average route,
as shown by the traffic census, car
ries a little over 1000 vehicles per
day, the department figures that cut
ting out 240 miles saves road users
100000 vehicle miles every day. AL
lowing for the drop in traffic in WIN
ter, this still makes a saving of 64,-
100000 vehicle miles for the year.
At eight cents a mile, the cost of
running the average car, this means
a net saving of $5,184,OO0 year.
This saving, however, is believed
to be small item compared to the
total saving to motorists through i'm
proved highways. A saving of two
or three cents a mile, the difference
between the cost of running car
on a good road and on a poor one,
counts up to a lot of money in a year.
Then there is the saving in time, as
we'll as the safety factor, brought
about by making roads straighter, re-
ducing steep grades, removing grade
crossings and making roads wider.
How few of the routes are affect
ed by the shortening process is shown
by the following mileages on some of
the routes in 1921 and 1927, only those
routes where reductions of five miles
or more have been effected.

AUTOS REGISTERED

The tide of automobile traffic IN
Minnesota continues to increase. On
September Both the registrations for
1927 had reached S,026 motor veh-
icles, more than were registered for
the entire year of 1926, according to a
report received by the Gazette from
Mike Holm, secretary of state. The
total revenue collected on the regis
trations amounts to S10,075, 465 which
is $94,667 more than for the whole
of 1926. The average tax per car war
slightly higher in 1927 than the year
before, rising from an average of
Sl5.71 in 1926 to $15.79 this year.

BANKS FACE BETTER
. DAYS,VEICEL SAYS
CONDITION BEST IN SIX YEARS,
COMMISSIONER OF BANKS RE-
PORTS IN RADIO MESSAGE
LAST WEEK. -..

Better times ahead" was the dag
nosis of Minnesota's Banking situation
given Thursday night of last week by
A. ]. Veigel, state commissioner OF
banks, in a talk broadcast over
WCCO.
Banking depression in the past, Mr.
Veigel asserted, was caused primarily
by postwar depression throughout
the Northwest, particularly as it at
fected farming and land values. The
existence of too many banks, char
tered during the initiation era, also
was cited as the cause of past diff
culties.
Now, Mr.. Veigel said, banking con-
ditions are better than they have been
in the past six years.
eve are not entirely through with
the results of the business depres-
sions," said the commissioner, "but
we can see the clouds lifting and bet
ter days ahead. Bank examinations
are much more thorough than in the
past.
"We are doing everything possible
to encourage consultations, wherever
one larger and stronger bank car
serve a community better than two
smaller banks, and under new legisla,
tive authority we have denied char
tiers to new institutions unless the
public interest clearly requires addi-
tional banking facilities.
"All bankers have learned valuable
lessons from experience and will be
better bankers in the future. We can
face the future with renewed conf.
dence in ourselves and our bankers.
'In the long run banks must have
earnings in excess of expenses. 1t is
therefore, the duty of all bankers to
increase earnings and reduce expen-
ses.
"The public is more interested IL
safe banks than in free services
There is no good reason why banks
like every other business, should not
charge for their services and for the
supplies they furnish.
"Under present conditions we &c
not believe that any bank can AFFORD
to pay more than per cent interest
on time deposits"
