ROAD BUILDING
PROFIT ABLE
ENGINEER SAYS

CLEVELAND, Jan. 10 tR-While
engineers and state road officials
were painting rosy pictures of new
era in road building, contractors at
tending the American Road Builders
convention here today heard two ,ex-
pertS from their own number decry
the unhealthy condition of industry
for the rural highway contractor.
Rural highway construction has
wrecked more contractors than pre-
ferred bonds have wrecked homes, A.
r. Hirst, chief engineer of the Ameri-
can Vinbrolithic corporation, declared
in vOicing the contractors protests to
the practices Of bonding companies
who back unstable contractors through
unfair methods.
"The total money lost on rural
contracts in the last decade far eX-
ceeds the total money made" Hirst
said, which means that our states
and counties have more miles Of
roads than they have paid for. Prices
and conditions in the rural highway
field have been so unsatisfactory to
contractors that energetic attempts
have been made to find an appro-
pirate goat The goat usually elect
ed has been the surety bonding COM
panies, who are willing to bond un-,
stable bidders whose bids are too
low"
Allan Jay Paris, president of the
Illinois association of highway and
municipal contractors, Paris, Ill. de-
clared the industry was in sick
and precarious condition, . from the
contractors points of view.
'aThe average price of all work has
been taken at or below the cost Of
production" Parrish said ssFolloW-
ing the world war there was period
of prosperity in the highway illdus-!
try because of few contractors in
the field. Today many incompetent
contractors have flooded the field
In Illinois we have investigated
contractors whose outstanding bills
and claims were far in excess of their
total possessions"
Substantial discounts to contrac-
tors paying before the tenth of each
month, with non-delivery Of more
goods If the bill is not paid by the
first of the following month was in
dorsed by Mr.. Parrish as a partial
solution to the false credit" prob
lem.
Charles M. Bassor, Minneapolis,
Mimi, president of the road build
ers' association opened today's ses-
sion with an Endorsement of state
safety patrols to curb the mounting
number of fatalities in traffic acci-
dents, He reviewed the work of the
organization during its rs years of
existence, indicating the great ad-
vances made in road building during
the period.

church which in verify was willed
and founded by Christ and which by
the promise of Christ's own assistance
persevereS as one and identical

apostolic Roman church"
Pointing out that those who deny
this unity of faith and government
of the real church of Christ, and who
desire union by means of an ac-
cord on few points, fundamental, :"
according to them, the pope declares
that that would be leading truth
into error and into bargainings, and
human transactions, which would be
treacherous, and against which the
Roman church has always resisted,

fact that "some seem to wish to
transfer it from the political to the
religious field, thus blending the true
religion with the false, holding all
religious equally good and praise
worthy.
God, the creator" says the pope,
"is also the. revealer to man of the
way in which he wishes to be honored
and served.
"That is the real religion for which
he founded his church on earth. The
duty of the human being therefore is
to believe Gods revelations, and con-
sequently adhere to the church-not
that which is supported by the err
ing, but, on the contrary, to that

if they really wish a union of all
Christians, is the substance of a
papal encyclical to the episcopacy of
the entire world, issued today. There
lis no safety outside the Roman apos-
tolic Catholic church, Pope Plus XI,
repeats once more.
4 During the Pontificate of Benedict
XIV, prominent American members of
the protestant church came purpose
ly to Rome in order to induce the
pope to send a representative to a
conference for union of the
churches. The pontiff received them
most cordially listened to them with
the greatest attention, but answer
ed in effect: There is nothing we
Douglas daily dispatch., 1928-01-11

desire more ardently than a union of
all Christians, but this can be OBJ
tanned only in one way-by the re-
turn of the wandering sheep to the
fold" 2lt
In this, the first encyclical of the
new year, the pope restating the Ro-
man Catholic church's age-long stand
on the union of Christians, empha-
sizes that while it. is good to culti-
vate charity among Christians, it
should not be done to the detriment
of the faith upon which that very
charity is founded.
The pontiff, recognized the general
tendency towards better international
union between peoples, deplores the
Douglas daily dispatch., 1928-01-11

and continues to resist.
Therefore, the pontiff concludes, it
would be impossible to conceive of
Christian society of the faithful,
each one free to follow his own
way of thinking in the matter of
faith.
The encyclical is interpreted in
Rome as removing all hope for the
resumption of the memorable ma
lines conversations, looking to a re-
union of the Anglicans with Rome,
in which the late Cardinal Mercier,
Lord Halifax and other noted men
took part 4l-sr,s,.

 The Senior Maharanes. his Arst wife. is unconccrned because her son. Prince Yeshwant in whose favor the former Maharajah abdi- cated, attains his majority soon and his future position seems secure.
 The Junior Maharanee, however. is still :n a condition of collapse. She has taken no food for days and re- fuses to see her mother or relatives
 By the terms of his abdication, the former Maharajah receives an annual allowance of sOO,0Oo rupees (roughly $2ss,000) and each wife 20o.0Oo rupees O7..000). His pres ent wives complain that they have not received their allowances in full.
 The general feeling in India is that the prospective marriage is most undesirable. The white com munity thinks that Miss Miller can- not realize what such a marriage involves. while the Hindu opposition iA based on religious grounds. It is stated that the orthodox religion does not accept converts and recog- nizes neither conversion nor . mar riage such n ts contemplated.

 'I am not in . position to gay anything about the proposed we'd ding which may or may not come off," this member of Indore's staff said today.
 Meanwhile friends of the former Maharajah think that the wedding may occur in Ceylon instead of in India and that the couple will spend their honeymoon travelling to America. It was stated at Nuwara Eliya, where the former Maharajah and Miss Miller are now staying at a hotel. that they will remain in Cey- lon until the end of February. It Is

angles and the fine inlaid marbles in
the liWan, are treasures of indestructib!e
beauty even after centuries of neglect
and spoliation. In the building of the
mosque we see the perfection of the art
Of the pure arabesque and elaborate
geometriC ornament.
Kat Bey who built this architectural
beauty, in 1872, worked his way up from
the usual humble beginning. He was
bought by Bars Bey for Is guineas; he
passed from master to master, and rank
to rank, until he became commander
in-chief of the army. He was noted for
his patronage Of the arts throughout
Egypt and Syria, building many struc-
ture that stands today, repairing macy
others and collecting priceless treasures
for his capital city.
His building projects were tremen-
dOusly expensive and taxes we're high as
a consequence To collect these he re-
sorted to extreme measures, especially
with the wealthy. He squeezed his SUD-
jects to the limit and they suffered be-
cause of it, but later age has recog-
nized their matchlesS beauties and prof.
its by the treasures he collected.
