Eighteen state Senators Said

larger cotton growing States

peared brighter than at any
time since Gov. Huey P. Long of
Louisiana announced his mo

Reports from Texas that IL
State senators favor the calling
Of the Texas legislature in spe-
cial session gave rise to the
belief it would greatly influence
Gov. Ross Sterling in making a
decision.
Gov. Richard B. Russell, jr.,
of Georgia has definitely an
nounced he will call the Georgia
legislature into session to act on
the Long plan as soon as the
Texas legislature is summoned
into session.
Governor Russell has taken the
attitude that it would be futile
for Georgia to adopt the Long
plan without Texas cooperating
for the Louisiana "no-cotton" law
would not become operative
unless States producing three
fourths of the country's cotton
pass similar legislation.

Texas produces about one-thirc
Of the nations cotton yield. II
would require action by Texas
Louisiana, Georgia, South Caro-
lima and either Alabama or Mis-

cotton growing States to make
the Long plan effective.

has announced disfavor Of the

TEMPE'S NEW BRIDGE TO BE
OPENED JULY Is

It is expected that the new
Tempe state highway bridge will
be thrown open to public use one
month from today, July Is. The
new bridge is 1.577 feet long aud
36 feet wide, built to accommo.
date four lines of traffic. On

walk five feet wide to accommo.
date pedestrians. Kiorsks con.
tanning rest bay for pedestrians
have been constructed over each
abutment pier The bridge has
18 lighting standards and sixteen
bracket lights on rest-bays. The
lighting system will be controll.
ed by time clock. by which the
standards will be cut off at 10
p. m. and the bracket lights at
dawn.
The bridge is laid out on a
reversed curve not only because
of foundation conditions but also
to connect with Tem2e's main
thoroughfare. Over the end
groups of three spans the road
way is on a one-degree curve,
while over the center groupe OF
four spans the roadway is on q
tangent. A ramp of a three and
one half per cent grade, is ne.
cessary on the south end to pro.
vide access to the bridge. Traffic
will be protected by guard fences
on both sides.
The reinforced concrete bridge
one of the finest in this section

at cost of $437, 1868 19. The
approaches will cost another
$25, 489. The bridge has ten 14O.

spans, four abutment piers and
seven intermediate piers. s.-Tem.

WHY DODGE THE ISSUE?

There can be no argument over
the fact that prosperity of the
railroads is essential to prosper
ity of the nation as whole.
While there are other large
aud necessary methods of trans
porting passengers and freight
the railroads are the backbone
of the whole transportation
structure.
Another fact that cannot be
argued is that income must be
sufficient to pay wages, interest
on stocks and bonds, taxes and
upkeep.
Railroad revenues are not at
the present time, and have not
been for some time past, large
enough to properly cover these
expenses in spite of rigorous
economy.
Therefore, there seems TO be
one of several things left to do
increase freight and passenger
traffic at present rates, or in
crease transportation rates, or
reduce quality of service, or fur.
thur cut operating expense by
reducing wages from the presi
dent and higher executive OIL
GERS right down the line, or com
bine little of all four alterna
tives.
Drastic action will be neces
sary if the roads remain solvent
and continue to render our nation
the best and most efficient rail
road service the world has ever
known.
