He made some pertinent and very logical comments upon the use and abuse of federal aid, but he upheld the system as a constructive force and productive of a better system of roads than the hodge- podge plan followed before the days of federal aid. S ve taxation for highway im- provement anywhere in this country, it is due more to the unw attempt to finance high-type main roads with county revenue than to any other cause.” His deductions are correct in many instances. Those agencies interested in promoting this or that type of hard surface road indulge in expensive campaigi Someone must pay for the promotion and it is usually added to the cost of the improvement along with excessive engineering fees. The taxpayer becomes the goat and the cause of good roads gets another black eye. Costs of good roads he contrasts with the expenditures for automobiles and their upkeep. Answering the critics who denounce the expenditure of a billion dollars from fed- eral, state and local sources for road building and mainte- | ftruzt Loubecuandslnesnauiongur dient nance, he Si “How many who give voice to this complaint realize that the American people pay each year more than $8,000,000,000 for the purchase, upkeep and operation of motor vehicles? Or that the annual sales of new motor cars and trucks amount to more than double the billion-dollar expenditure for roads?” According to his imates “the entire cost of highway construction and upkeep is only about 10 per cent of the whole bill for highway transportation.” Each state must contribute its share to what Se Jardine calls “the service of interstate traffic.” It is the right as well as the profitable thing for any state to do. Increased traffic brings big returns and a network of roads, the upkeep of which is in skilled hands, is one of the bes+ advertisements any state can hav retary SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES The country stands on the verge of a tremendous home building movement, according to those in close touch with the real estate and building situation. National surveys show that the greatest demand is for the single-family home. Real estate men are struggling with the cost problem of supplying a sufficient number of these homes. The solu- tion lies probably along the lines of construction. It is en- couraging to learn that several plans have been offered whereby single-family homeg can be had by those who have Jong been forced to rent homes or apartments. One builder puts up four-room cottages and places the| bath in the basement to reduce costs. He sells the cottage for $3,200 and has found a demand greater than he can meet. Others plan houses so that they can be added to as the fam- ily increases or as income increases. Another plan is to complete the exterior of the house but leave some rooms unplastered and part of.the interior incomplete until, funds are available for completion. Perhaps the strongest demand for cheaper, single-family “houses shows that the country is undergoing a reaction against apartment life of the city. There may be happiness in a three-room apartment or a kitchenette but real family life is found in homes where a mother can bring her chil- dren without an apology and where the playground is a yard and not an alley. An increase in the demand for single-family homes is a sign of progress. It means fewer crime waves, healthier * people and less work for the juvenile and divoree courts. It . means stability of family life, which means stability of the nation. CAPITAL VS. HUMANITY In all economic questions the first thing to look for is the safety of humanity, its progress and happiness. When an economic measure, no matter how expedient, infringes on the right of human beings to live then the United States can well do without it. Taking this into consideration, weview with nothing but commendation the appointment by Surgeon-General Cum- ming of the Public Health service of a commission to inves- tigate the effects of ethy] gas when used as a motor‘fuel. A recent conference of state health officers indorsed “as wise” the action of the Ethyl Gas corporation in discontin- uing {cmporarily the distribution of the ethyl gag fuel. On the other hand, we have the objection of the Stand- ard-Oil company of New Jersey, whose representative, Fran , Howard, said that in, view of the diminishing petroleum = supply and the necessity of finding means of increasing the _, effectiveness of motor fuel, his company was “loath to agree = to forsake ethyl gasoline unless it were conclusively proved that it was injurious to the public welfare.” The fatalities of several. weeks ago resulting from the new gas have “conclusively proved” that in its present form| * at least ‘it is injurious. Pending a study of the gas it should : be. kept from the commercial market. oe errr coca Pedestrians are one thing that air pilots don’t have to _ worry about. ; Transit would be mote rapid if we could ride our train of Kresge Bldg. | jforth is tah i $7.20 | ithe ballroom or street.

SAY IT WITH “LIFE Dex Moines Tribune-News: Black a popular tone at funerals hence- » according to the Ne- braska Funeral Directors’ associa- tion. Sorrow is to be softened with bright colors. Caskets displayed at the association's meeting, which is said to have heen more representa tive than the national convention, in- cluded models of silk plushes in fan- colors. Some cakets have elim inated the necessity of flowers, for flowers have been woven into the cloth. Color also is provided raiment displayed at the convention. There are dresses of silks and satin in the very latest style, suitable for ing with the evolution of the offic of undertaker, which in turn repre. sents a gain in the public attitude. Instead of a cadaverous person, sal- low and sorrowful, sober in mein and garb, the modern funeral director i expected to be efficient and unob. trusive, but pleasant and tactful rather than gloomy and depressing- ly ceremonious. There are limits beyond which the change will not go. Death cannot be made a cheerful thing for those who survive. But that it has led to ex- ive depression, that too often it has kept the living from turning back to life with the zest which the dead would wish for them, is true. If a few bits of color can soften sor- row, if an atmosphere can be made which will bring mourning ones from the view of death to its lesson of life, if they thus caf be led to catch up the torch and bear it on more under- standingly that will be gain indeed.

Undoubt- edly there are people reported miss- ing to the police who never will be found although they do not leave the city. This condition exists because people here usually mind their own. business and do not inquire into the past of new neighbors. EVERETT TRUE BY CONDO- One needs not be a millionaire to look and act like a million dollars in New York. There are any number of places where one may rent a full dress suit, or evening gowns and wraps, and there-are several concerns which rent limousines and town cars| of the highest-priced makes, furnish- ing liveried chauffeurs and doormen, with nothing to indicate that the car, is not privately owned. I am told that in such a cara man visited a prominent banker for a social.call on a Sunday afternoon and the next day negotiated a personal loan without security. This loan gave him the op- portunity to launch a business that prospered and made him able to buy his own limousine.

How- | ever, I- know one man who worked | hard for three years ‘and saved all he could out of -his small wages. When he had saved $1000 he quit work, slept all day and made the rounds of the town all ‘hight. He en- gaged rooms in three sections of the city so that one would always be convenient: when he was too tired to travel far after a night of sightsee- ing.
