am one citizen, one conscience. But
mine through necessity as an editor must
be a public conscience = and as an edi-
tor it is my job to report the news and
the issues of the day to you, the people,
in order that you may be informed and
stimulated to perform or discharge your
duties as citizens.
Without a competent newspaper to
call to your attention important affairs
of public interest your task would be
more difficult you would certainly lose
a measure of your freedom and good
government would suffer.
1t is not always possible for every
one to agree - and that is how it should
be in a country where men are free to
do their own thinking.
AS an editor it is my duty to speak
out for or against any vital issue which
affects our community and it's welfare,
or our country. Only rarely is it pos
sible to choose the popular side. But an
honest editor who would truly serve the
highest and best interest of the people
will not compromise convictions to support
a popular cause known to be morally wrong
just to incur popular favor or support.
Should the time ever come when ! do
not have the character, courage and
strength to stand editorially for truth
and what l know to be right and oppose
that which l know to be wrong; should
we, as a people, ever become so corrupt
that / could not write the truth and you
would not want to read it; then we would
truly be a lost and despairing people with
out hope. And l should nc longer wish to
be an editor.
But l do not believe that time will

The most significant aspect of
this legislation was a provision
setting aside IL cents of the
Highway Departments share OF
the gasoline tax to match fed
eral aid for new construction.
While falling far short of an
nual needs, this source of con-
struction funds has made pos
sible a sustained program far
more effective than earlier crash
programs.
Interstate System Begun
The federal government took
a far-reaching step in 1856 when
Congress approved the Inter
state Highway Program, which
included four of Mississippi's
principal trunk highways. This
federal system of highways
deemed vital to national de-
Tense as well as civilian traffic,
overs Al 1000 miles in the
United States, including 67s
miles in Mississippi. They
parallel present U. S. Routes 81,
80, II and 80.
Design standards on these
highways are the highest ever
practiced in Mississippi. They
are being built to a minimum of
four lanes, all divided, with
fully-controlled access tand sep
aration structures for all cross
ing traffic.
Due to their Importance nat
ionally, the federal government
is paying go per cent of the
cost, as compared with the $3.50
matching ratio on remaining
federal aid highways Construct
ion is moving forward on In
terstate highways in Mississippi,
and more and more their I'M
pact is being felt as new links
are opened. When completed,
they are expected to take over

Highways And Progress
~ Study Made, New Interstate
Roads, 1861 Report Coming

EDITORS NOTE: This is the
final segment of afour part
series dealing with the history
and development of the Missis-
sippi State Highway Department
and the state system of high
ways.)
PART FoUR-The- Program
Grows
Pioneer Mississippians had
their dirt trails. Later genera
tons added and improved. With
the twentieth century came the
automobile, followed in a few
years by a State Highway Com
mission, a state highway system
and federal aid. BY l948, three
big bond issues had paved most
of the major highways of the
state, but the money was ex-
hausted. Gaping holes still ex-
list in the system, and the auto
mobile had long-since ceased to
be a luxury. 1t was now a
necessity in the daily lives of
virtually every Mississippian.
In 1913, a new slate of Off
GERS took over the reigns of
government in Mississippi. In
the campaign the summer be-
fore, good roads had been the
principal issue, and the large
majority of those elected rode
in on a platform for better high
ways. But no one had the for
mula for financing them.
Engineering Study Made
Stumped over the problem,
the Legislature named a High
way Study Committee, employ
ed the Automotive Safety Foun-
dation of Washington, D. c., to
analyze needs and recommend
a solution. A program growing
out of this study as adopted in
the session of 1850. The Auto
motive Safety Foundation had
recommended a state system of
$500 miles, a state aid system
of 1880 miles. The study also
set up the framework for financ-
ing and construction this system.
The Legislature adopted an
8,600-mile state highway sys-
tenn; assigned over 1000 miles
of county roads to the State Aid
System and created the State
Aid Division to work with
county boards of supervisors in
building these roads. To finance
the program. the gasoline tax
was raised from six to seven
cents, and a portion of the state
sales tax was channeled into
State Aid funds.
Gasoline Tux Divided
The 1850 law set up a new
division of the gasoline tax-2R
cents to the counties, Az cents
to the State Highway Depart
ment. after deductions for bond
service, refunds. motor vehicle
comptroller, coast counties and
others.

traffic in the state.
What of the Future?
From the early trails, Missile
sippi has developed a system OF
$3.50 miles of state highways.
Stretched end to end, they
would reach more than a third
of the way around the world.
They serve every county, and
reach into most of the organized
communities. The Highway
Commission says unpaved mile
age on the secondary system is
still a problem that will take
years to accomplish. Old pri-
mary. roads. in many places are
failing under present-day traf-
flee, and congestion is a problem
in growino urban areas.
Today, Mississippians owl
800, 600 motor vehicles. By 1875,
this number is expected to eX-
coed 1000, 900. With this growth
will come new demands for high
ways.
Another legislative study is
now being made of highway
needs in Mississippi. The Auto
motive Safety Foundation is
again blueprinting a plan to
keep the states highway!
abreast. A report is expected
next regular session in January,
The action taken there. will
have a far-reaching effect or
