Types of Road Govern Operating
Cost of Automobiles

Types Of road govern the opera
ting cost Of motor car, as well as
affect property values and expi-
dite traffic, according TO the Au-
tomobile Club of Washington, who
point out that a motor car, travel
ing at moderate rate of speed
over a welLpaved road, costs
around three cents per mile less
To operate than when moving over
a dirt road,
While it has been known for
many years that modern highways
increase property values, as well
as expedite traffic, it remained
for economists to figure the actual
saving to the ear owner as a re-
suit Of reduced operating costs.
Assuming that an average ear
owner Travelled $500 miles over a
paved road in the course of a year
and the same distance over dirt
road the operating cost of his eau
would be $75 less over the former
This argument alone should con
vince the skeptical that Improved
reads are like gilt edge securities
with a definite monetary return.
In operating school busses il
has been found that in sections
with paved roads the operating
cost is about five cents per mile
lower than in areas whene there
are only dirt roads.

Average Operating Cost of Motor
Car is Ten Cents Per Mile

Ten cents pei mile pays all costs
of operation of the average auto
mobile, including every item Of
expense, according to the Automo-
bile Club Of Washington, which
points out that while the range Of
operation costs is from 705 cents
per mile for light four-eylinder
touring car to ll.73 cents per mile
for a light six-cylinder coach, the
average is ten cents per mile.
Improvement in car design, de-
yelopment of good roads and
standardization of motoring serv-
ices have done much to lower the
operating costs.
The average motoriSt spent
1920 in 1927 for operation and
maintenance, excluding depreeia-
ton and garaging charges. This
was liyided into four principal
items as follows; Replacement
parts and supplies, $ll; tires for
replacement, $40; fuels aud lubri-
eants, $l0i, and labor $i7.
The average cost of operation
for 1927 was considerably lower
than for 1919, when the average
cost was 1921, Averages for other
years were 1921. 1921 1928,
1922 1928, Spl7; and 1926 s219.

BORAH SEES TREND
TOWARD HOOVER
Senator Tells President About OBJ
servations in States Referred
to as Doubtful.

President Coolidge was informed to-
day by Senator Borah of Idaho, who
has just returned from three weeks
speaking tour in behalf of the Republic
can national ticket, that his observa-
tons have shown the trend is toward
Hoover.
The Idaho Senator said that this
was especially noticeable in the eight
States in which he spoke, which were
Michigan, Kentucky, Missouri, Okla
homa, Nebraska, Minnesota and North
and South Dakota. He stated that the
States visited by him which are being
classed by political writer's and others
as being doubtful, such as Kentucky,
Missouri, Oklahoma, Minnesota and the
Dakotas, appear to him as being safe.
The President had many questions to
ask his caller regarding the situation
in the territory he had just visited and
told the Senator that he had enjoyed
listening to him on the radio. Senator
Borah said that his real purpose in
coming to the White House was in re-
gard to an irrigation project in Idaho.
He said that he is leaving Washington
shortly to resume his speaking cam
'paign and that he expects to make his
first speeches in the South.

SAYS TEACHERS AT AGE OF As
ARE UNFIT LEADERS OF YOUTH
Dr.. Marvin, Head of G. w. u,
Cites Institutions Edu-
cation Program.
Addressing Mothers Group,
Educator Discusses Pres
ent-Day Problem.

Declaring that As is the age at which
most men have lost touch with the new
developments of the world they live in
and therefore are unfit for executive
positions in which they deal with youth,
DR.. Cloyd Heck Marvin, president of
George Washington University, today
pointed out the adult education pro-
gram CT the university as step to bring
the philosophical complacency" of mid
Ole age into tune with the psychological
enthusiasts" of youth.
DR.. Marvin today amplifled his state
ment made before mothers of f1rst-year
girls of the university yesterday, to the
effect that the mental attitude of most
men or women of As or older is unfit
for governing youth.
Men at As have reached philo-
Sophical complacency out of harmony
with the energetic enthusiasts Of the
psychological developing youth. They
do the work at hand In an efficient
manner, but lack the imaginative and
adventurous enthusiasm of youth It
is this attitude which handicaps them
in their dealings with young people,
even their own sons and daughters, +"
he stated.
1T is to bring this challenge to the
mothers and fathers that we have gone
into our adult education program on q
large SCALE" he added.
Cites Avenues Open to Youth.
DR.. Marvin said that he has found
that the social and psychological ave-
nueS for development open to youth OF
today vastly outnumber those of two or
three decades ago. II don't know of a
single avenue that is not open to the
youth of today. But in my own field it
has been only comparatively recently
that men in their thirties we're holding
executive positions in the great uni
versities," he said. He added that the
same holds true to a great extent In
the business world.
It is the task of every man and wom-
an to keep abreast of the times, and
at is for us to keep up with the onruSh
of civilization in order that our lives
may be lives of companionship with
the young people of today" he declared.
The university head explained that
in his opinion the primary principle
of education is life reacting upon life,
the contact of one personality with
another.
"The challenge of youth to middle
age is a constant one," he said. ITO
meet this challenge we must keep day
by day adapting ourselves to the new
in life, whether it be social, psyche
logical or mechanical ever renewing our
youth and keeping abreast of the gen.
erations we are bringing up for leader
ship tomorrow"

The mothers were entertained at
luncheon and at an informal reception
and were taken on a sightseeing tour
of the university buildings in the aft
ernoon. They participated in a round
table discussion of student problems,
led by Dean Anna L. Rose, and were
given the opportunity Of attending reg

At the Spring registration there was
a Democratic gain of 315. so that the
