Hill, of Durham, and member of the

said, in commenting on the Halstead
bill. For as much as | favor good
roads and the building of as many
miles of good roads as we possibly

1t is generally believed that Sena-
tor Halstead's bill was largely inspir-
ed by the statement made by Cover
nor Clyde r. Hoey in his message in
which he urged that more attention
be paid to the secondary or county
roads. But since the $4,000 miles of
county roads carry only from 10 to

lslative and State circles here TODAY.
The reaction among a good many
members of both houses of the Cen
eral Assembly is that the State should
pay off more of its present bonded
road debt before authorizing any
more bonds. They pointed out that
something like $89,OOO,O0O of road
bonds authorized between 1921 and
1927 still remain to be paid off and
that approximately $5,OOO,OOO a year
of the highway revenue is still being
used to make payments on these
bonds. Others point out that there are
$4,000 miles of roads in the second
airy or county road system and that
100000 would hardly be drop in
the bucket towards providing even
the cheapest type of surfacing for
these roads.
Il am inclined to the position that
the State should wait at least two

the Advisory Budget Commission that
the taking of $1,1O0,OOO a year from
the highway fund and putting it in
the general fund is not diversion"
but merely taking what the general
fund is entitled to by applying the
sales tax to gasoline sales, on which
the public has already paid a State
sales tax OF six cents a gallon. Indi-
cations are, however, that Commits
sioner Maxwell is not going to have
such an easy time to make MANY
members of the General Assembly be-
ieve this is not diversion, even if he
does call it by different name.
Some Of the bankers in the General
Assembly are already getting iitterv
at the proposal to levy tax of one
tenth OF one per cent on money in
banks. They are afraid that some Of
their big depositors will draw out
their money and put it into a form
that Will not be taxed, or put it in
banks in other states. The counties
are also preparing to fight this pro-
posal vigorously, contending that the
state is preparing to further invade
thelr field and deprive them of addi-
tlonal sources of revenue.
w. Kerr Scott, new Commissioner
OF Agriculture, is finding out that be-
ing a new State official is no bed of
roses, especially when there is a Bud
get Bureau to deal with in addition
to job hunters and supporters who
must be taken care" of. 1t is under
stood that Scott is still engaged in
verbal wrestling match with Frank
Dunlap, assistant director of the bud
get, In an effort to get the salary of
the publicity director of the depart
ment raised from $4,000 a year to So
$40 year, due to the fact that none
of those to whom he has offered the
job will take it for less than $4,000
year This is the job from which
Scott booted William H. Richardson
some weeks ago and which he has
since offered to five different men.
Another reason Scott is reported
having difficulty in finding a new
publicity director to take Richard
sons place, in addition to his in
ability to get the salary up to the fig
ure desired, is that several of the
newspaper men to whom the job has
been offered are somewhat leery of
the social insecurity of the position.
Because of the peculiar pleasure Scott
seems to take in booting employees
out Of the department virtually with
out notice, good many are coming
to the conclusion that jobs in the De-
partment of Agriculture, even at 49,

LONDON MARKETS
MORE Confident
Easy Negotiation of Settlement

BY LEONARD !. REID.

~ Cable to The Star.
LONDON, October 9-Another dis
appointing week in the financial dis
trict ended with more confidence than
prevailed on Monday and Tuesday,
when the Wall Street slump caused a
gloomy sentiment and substantial
liquidation.
The chief lesson of the weeks ex-
perience was that the London markets
are still unable to develop an in
dividual trend independent of Wall
Street, although the easy negotiation
Of the stock market settlement proved
the professional stock market position
to be sound, and evidence accumulates
OF an Unexpectedly large number of
small private syndicates gambling on
margin in both shares and COM
modities.
Persistent strength in the demand
Tor gilt-edged issues-for instance, the
fl,000,000 Hertfordshire issue was
oversubscribed 13 times-reflects in
part confidence in the continuance of
cheap money, and, partly, a distrust
IN the industrial outlook, which not
even the optimism of Sir John Simon,
chancellor of the Exchequer, has re-
moved.
Here again Wall Street exerts a big
influence, for it is argued here that
the Wall Street slump might pre-
cipitate an American trade decline
which would spread around the world.
Altogether, the puzzling situation
continues of trade regularly good,
shares regularly falling, and no
prophecy on the nearby trend ventured
by any recognized authority until the
American situation is clearer.

Commodity Price
Changes for Week
BY A. A, PATTON,
Associated Press Statistician.

NEW YORK, October Commodity
prices crashed into new low ground
for the year this week, chalking up
the heaviest losses since depression
gripped the market place In the early
30s.
The Associated Press weighted index
Of IS important wholesale staple quo
tations cracked to 1921 per cent of
the 1925 average. wiping out the entire
post-election boom that carried into
early April this year.
Three major groups plunged to new
lows for the year: Food, agricultural
staples and textiles.
The widest break occurred in farm
products. Cotton fell below 8 cents a
pound for the FIRST time since 1898,
with ofdcial estimates Of the pros
pective harvest set at 1853 900 bales
This would be the largest crop, with
one exception. in history. Only the
tremendous 1925 harvest topped the
latest total.
Grains on Sharply.
Grains were marked down sharply.
Buyers were scarce as heavy supplies
pressed on the market for what they
would bring. Corn, wheat, oats and
rye all gave ground. Hogs, cattle and
lamb also weakened.
The decline was almost unanimous:
Twenty-one components of the index
dropped. l3 were unchanged and only
one managed to exc out a small ad-
vance-turpentine.
Items entering the market basket
eggs, sugar, cocoa, -four and lard
shared the downturn. Analysts point

Textiles at New Low.
Textiles registered their tenth con-
secutive new bottom for the year as
cotton cloth, wool and silk dipped.
Substantial inventories in retail out
lets and mills have caused buying to
dry up. which in turn has been re-
nected in manufacturing operations.
Industrial commodities gave ground

 The assistant postmaster gen. eral added he contemplated no appropriation for an airmail line between Alaska and the States in 1889 or earlier.
 Senator Murray advocated the route by way of Lethbridge and Great Falls, believing it would be desirable as part of proposed line between Ell Paso, Texas, and Alaska.
 Branch said establishment of such line would require a treaty with Canada.
