HIGHWAY MAINTENANCE

We do not vOuch for the correctness of his fig
ures but recent writer declares that 100000
miles of hard surfaced American highways must be
reconstructed in the next two or three years, or
they will be unfit for use. Some engineers esti-
mated that within Is years most of our present
highways will have to be rebuilt.
Even allowing for some exaggeration of the sit
uation, the prospect is rather dscouraging 1t APP
pears that most of our highways will be ruined be-
fore they are paid for, most road bond issues
still have many years to run before maturity
There is no doubt that their rapid deterioration
is, due largely to the damage caused by unreason-
ably heavy trucks and buses. These destructive
vehicles not only break up our roads and weaken
our bridges, but are nuisance and menace to
all other traffic
No one would object to the use of the roads by
trucks of reasonable size and weight, but the
enormous ones which COW infest the highways
should be abolished. Legislation to this end is be-
ing adopted in some states, and while the truck
men are protesting they have no one but them
selves to blame.
By trying to "hog" the roads and destroy them
at the same time they have little cause for cam,
plant if the taxpayers demand protection for the
highways they have built at such burdensome ex'
pense.-W Washington Daily News.

TAXING BACHELORS AND sPINsTERs

Bachelors, spinsters and childless couples are
taxed by the United States land by the state of
South Carolina,) according to Professor Frank 6.
Dickinson, sociologst of the University of Illinois.
The hing is done through income taxes.
Bachelors the Boston Evening Transcript says,
'have been especially taxed in the past. They have
sometimes been otherwise burdened. In Sparta,
they were the subjects of various penalties one of
which consisted in marching around the market
place singing songs derogatory to themselves.
There were Roman laws against the unmarrl-
ed. Such laws were enacted in the Middle Ages.
In England in 1895 bachelors were taxed to pay for
a war with France which may give to bachelors OF
today sense of relief that they were not called
upon to meet the staggering cost of the World War
"In these modern times, bachelors, spinsters and
childless married persons are indirectly taxed
through the adjustment of income tax schedules,
but this discrimination against them has been re-
garded as based upon ability to pay rather than
upon the theory of the sociologist that they were
lodging debt"
Under the income tax regulations bachelors and
spinsters are without allowances for dependents I'M
less they qualify as the law requires. 1t is not
enough that bachelor spinster should be sup
porting others; not every dependent brings ex-
emption to the taxpayer. Some features of the
income tax laws probably interfere with personal
charity, to assistance rendered directly and not
through organized groups.-Charleston News and
Courier.

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
WHAT is THE ANSWER

There is no dsputing the fact that business in
virtually all lines substantially better during
1895 than in 1884, and that particularly notable
imnrovement was shown during the last quarter of
this year.
Yet. according to statements made by Relief Adj
ministrator Hopkins to a group of senator's a few
DAYS ago, the number of persons or "dole' or
work relief is today virtually the same as it was
wear ago, The relief population reached ain all
t;ma neak of more than 10000, 900 last January,
Mr. Hopkns said and while there has been Slight
;D,n-ovement the relief load is about the same to-
day. ....''..-
No satisfactory explanation for this state of af-
fairs appears That it is situation that cannot
fail to arouse deep concern admits of no doubt. If
the economic Improvement of last year brought no
reduction in the relief load will the continued inn
iproyement confidently expected for this year
bring much reduction? Have our praise-worthy et-
forts to relieve hardship by such means had the
effect of building ND a more or less permanent ele
ment comprising nearly fifth of the population
which will continue to look to government Tor sup
port. while private enterprise makes It's arrange
ments to carry forward expanding activities with
out them?
Such questions provoke uneasy thought as to
how long we shall be called upon to pour forth
great sums for relief activities. This program has
been based on the expectation that business pick
up would steadily tighten the load But, on the
contrary are we to continue to have permanently
very substantial portion of the citizenship looking
to government for support? That is something
which, it may be worth while to ponder on, we have
never yet had before despite the severe previous
depressons through which We have passed-Green-
vile, $50 News. ..'.'..

WTASHINGTON.--If gossip nom
w mated presidential candi-
dates, Supreme Court justice
Owen ]. Roberts would be as
likely Republican possibility as
anyone.
There's a choice report going
around in rather exalted circles
that Roberts, asked recently by a
friend whether he would accent
the nomination il it came to him.
replied that no man could duck
such responsibility. !
Prominent Pennsylvania Republi.
cans are said to be especially inter.
ested. Roberts was one of them
once. Bosses in other eastern
states also have been thinking
about it. Roberts has become the
hero Of anti-New Deal forces
through his majority opinions
against New Deal laws. -,
1t can't be said definitely whether
Roberts has been sounded out, BSt
, no convention will nominate a man,
unless party leaders are certain in
advance Of his acceptance.
In 1916 it was William Howard
raft-not then on the beneh-who
first approached Justice Charles
Evans Hughes. After that George
