Dispassionate observers of cases
such as those cited-and there are |
many others-say that debate as to
what is right or wrong, or what is
constitutional or unconstitutional, is
futile until there has been a revision
of the Constitution. Nobody can win
such a debate because nobody can be
sure which side is right. These can
be, and will be, of course. court deci-
sions, but even In the case Of final
adjudications there may remain doubts

In addition, Mr., Rossberg and his

changing the soldier preference law

Legion favors a state memorial to
commemorate the deeds of hero dead,
it does not push this project now.
The state legislature is urged to re-

disabled veterans from the federal
government, and to ask Congress to
pass the Tyson-Fitzgerald Bill which
grants justice to disabled emergency
officers of the world war.

Forestry.

Our forestry should be taken care of
because if they are not they would
all too soon be gone. There are twen-
ty-three billion cubic feet of trees
used year and there are two billion
destroyed by insects and fires. There
are about six times as many trees
used as there are planted. There
should be more trees planted because
if there was not there would be no
lumber left and people could not re-
build burned homes and factories or
destroyed ships. There should be no
tax on trees that are not cut. Taxes
on trees should be low at first and
higher gradually. This is to en-
courage men to pay. taxes. Taxes
should be paid only on timber cut.
1t represents that taxation without
representation is tyranny which was
said in a speech by Patrick Henry.
1t will cost quite lot to grow for
ests at first but it will pay you back
twice as much as you put in it. Trees
do not grow fast for the first year or
two but after that they grow faster.
They should also have wind protection
so that they will not be choked out
and they need fire protection.
There is enough timber used every
year for papers that it would reach
to the sun and back again to earth,
There is quite bit wasted in
states in mills and when doing car
penter work. There are lot of the
northern and western timber lands
that have been burned over and if
this land would be cleared up and
planted with trees it would give the
people good crop if it was given
a chance. There is no use of letting
all this good land go to waste if it
is good for planting trees on. If this
| is not done in few years from now
there will be no forests left and
nothing to rebuild with and then peo-
pie will not be able to live. They
would freeze in the winter time be-
cause they would have no wood to
build fires with in their homes. Some
| would not have lumber to even build
| themselves a home.

BETTER ROADS SAVE s
$48, 600, 900 IN YEAR
Operating Costs ! to q Cents
Higher in Other States, Sales
me1's Accounts Show.

If all the $4,000 automobiles in
Minnesota were scattered through
the central states east of here, the
owners would have to pay $4,000, 900
year more than they do in Minneso-
ia for operating costs. This state
is based upon cost accounts of two
Minneapolis firms, one of which oper-
ates so salesmen's cars in ten north
central states the other in four
These firms found their average costs
from a half cent to 2.5 cents per mile
higher in the other states than in
Minnesota.
One of these firms gave its average
cost in Minnesota in 1926 at 3.4 cents
mile, 3.9 in one other state, Al in
another, 4.3, "A, At and 5.5 in other
states and 46 in three states. The
company buys tires and supplies in
large quantities, at wholesale, and
this with the large mileage covered
and low depreciation, accounts for the
low cost per mile, but this would not
affect the ratio between the states.
The second company reported that
their average was IL cents a mile
higher in one state than in Minnesota,
1.9 in another and 2.5 in another.
Both companies, for business reasons.
did not make public the names of the
states. The statesmen of both COM
panies use both trunk highways and
secondary roads. The states which
| showed the lowest average, next to
Minnesota, have large mileage of
paved. highways, but the secondary
roads are not as well developed. In
Minnesota the trunk highway plan re-
| leased the state aid funds for use on
secondary roads, and in proportion to
traffic these have seen as much i'm
provement as the trunk highways.
By multiplying the number of ma
chimes by the number of miles the
| average person drives, and multiply
| ing this by one-half cent mile, it is
found that good roads saved Minnesota
motorists $1S,0O0,0OO in 1925, as COM
pared to the state with the next best
average, and $95,5OO,OOO as compared
to the state with the highest
| average cost. The difference between
Minnesota and the average of all the
other states in the group was 1 1-3
cent a mile, and on this basis good
roads save car owners in the state
| $4S,000,O00 year.
Completing the necessary improve
| ~, onto on tho NHippocoto trunk hiOh
ways, which carry more than half the
| total traffic of the state, and at the
same time continuing the betterments
on the secondary roads, will mean a
still further reduction in gasoline,
tire, and repair bills. 1t is quite ap-
parent, says the bulletin, that eve
pay for good roads whether we have
them or not, and we pay more when
we do not have them"
