OF course If a serious industrial de-

strangely enough, some of the most
thoughtful Socialists in the country
are now as thoroughly reconciled to
the processes of consolidation and
monopoly as are the most hard boiled
capitalists. They hope that these proc

that when the production and han

The middle ground point Of view on
the merger problem appears to cen

government should see to it that the

which are regarded as inherently

Meanwhile, mergers pile up like

federal government, with antitrust
laws often described as Anticipated, is

HA[TS REWARD

500 Offered for Capture of

It will be necessary for w. A. Shooter,
a Washington policeman, to receive the
permission of the District Commits
sioners before he may accept the 500
reward offered by the American Auto
mobile Association to any person who
supplies information leading to the ar
rest and conviction of a hit-and-run
driver.
Policeman Shotter pursued and cap
tured Robert d. Dixon as he fed after
his car had struck and killed John
Francis Luitich last Friday. He was
chasing the machine when the accident
occurred. According to the terms of the
reward, which provides for the payment
Of 500 to any person who supplies in
formation leading to the arrest and
conviction Of a hit-and-run driver, pro-
viding serious injury or death results,
Shotter Is entitled to accept.
IN his letter to the Commissioners
Mr.. Smith said II believe this pursuit
and capture of Dixon by Officer Shot
ter to be one of the most daring and
outstanding pieces of police work that
has ever been done in the District of
Columbia, and the American Automo-
bile Association wishes to reward him
by paying him $780,"

templated, and Paraguay and Bolivia,
where nothing to speak OF has been

Rail Propaganda Blamed.
There are those who say that Argen-
tinas persistent Indifference to highway
Improvement and construction is due
to adverse propaganda sponsored by
railway interests It is said that much
of the opposition voiced in the past
to highway projects in Argentina has
been traceable to railroad circles. Most
of the rail lines are owned and
operated by European concerns. There
are not more than 400 miles of i'm
proved highway in all of Argentina.
Yet no country on the Southern Cont
nent has greater need for motor trans
portation, for Argentina is essentially
an agricultural domain, with q wide
field for trucking development.
While in the Argentine the road
apathy is not due to any lack of money
with which to launch highway pro-
gram, insufficient funds may be ascribed
as the reason for the deplorable state
of the roads in many of the smaller
countries.
Most of what progress South America
had made in highway work to date can
be attributed to the seeds Of activity
sown at the first Pan American High
way Conference in this country i've
years ago, held under auspices Of the
Department Of Commerce. At that
time $50 Latin American engineers and
public works officials were taken on an
extensive tour of the United States and
given a first-hand instruction course in
American methods of bodybuilding.
The lessons, which we're learned then
are reflected now in the road work COM
pleted or started since that time. Mr..
Hoover and his party saw numerous
evidences of North American engineer
ing methods in use on the Southern
Continent. The Pan-American Highway
Conference is meeting this year, by the
way, in Buenos Aires.
AS Is we'll known, the next President
is road enthusiast. Without doubt
he was pleased to find that South
America is beginning to give serious at
tention to highway construction. He
believes highways have important roles
to play aside from the primary one of
providing an economical means of f1eX-
ible transportation.
Briefly, he thinks that with a COM
prehensive system of modern highways,
a nation has gone far toward attaining
a unity among its nationals that makes
for an orderly stabilized government. It
is significant that most Of the past dis
orders in Southern republics have had
their origin in districts remote from
the center Of recognized government
and out of reach of Federal authority.
Link those outlying sections closer to
the hub of government, 1t is reasoned,
and the misunderstanding and politi-
cal unrest will be ameliorated.
