~HEWAY TRAFRIC | AND PERL SURVEY (RDERE BY STATE Danger Spots to Be Studied | With View to Removal; Up- keep to Depend on Tax Sa | NEW SURFACING IS SOUGHT | Through Lines of Travel to Be Mapped in Adjustment to” Neighboring States Suggestions for improvement of the state road system, made by A. L. 1edke, of the federal bureau of pub- lic roads, St.,Paul, will be put into; effect by the state highway commis-' son this year, according to a decision | 1 i by that body. Other suggestions made by Luedke and intended to draw tourist traffic ; by the highway commission to the Greater North Dakota association for its consideration. Luedke’s suggestions were made following a tour of the state and a review of its possibilities from a high- way development standpoint. .. Would Make Safety Survey First among his recommendations is that a survey be made, based upon Siatistics acquired by the state board of health. The health department ebtains a complete report on all high- way accidents which result in death. Luedke's idea is that these reports be the basis of a check by the high-| ‘ay department. Bad spots would be spotted on a man of the state and division engincers would check them | carefully in order to make sure that highway accidents of the future may not be attributed to the condition cf the highway. A more detailed traffic survey will | be made. It will cover a longer period and will make an effort to show the/{ use of the roads guring the winter) menths. The department then will/ be able to balance the cost of snow) fence, snow prevention and snow re-| . moval against receipts from the state ' gasoline tax made possible by kecping | the roads open. . ? Advises Traffic Profile | Some North Dakota roads soon will! he called upon to bear traffic so! heavy that continued use of gravel for | ,surfacing will be uneconomical.' /Muedke said. He suggested that a traffic profile be taken every five) miles along the main roads in order} “to give the engineering department data required to plan new projects! and to determine when paving should take the place of gravel surfacing. He suggested that a curve be con- structed, based on North Dakota costs, to give the economic life of} each type of road and to show the point at which paving becomes cheap- ! er than gravel. Under Luedke’s pro- posal the cost of roads would be based upon the original investment, the in-!| terest on the investment. the cost of | maintenance, interest on maintenance | costs and costs of improvements such as widening or thickening the road. Need Mere Tourist Siens Puinting out the need for more signs at points of interest to halt tourists in their trips through the state, Luedke said: “Tourist traffic is a cash income for the state directly credited against road improvement. It represents about $10.000.000 annually to North Dakota. South Dakota's tourist traf- fic is $22,000,000 annually. North Da- kota should capitalize on this fact nd co-operatively work out a pro- gram to attract this cash traffic up though North Dakota's Bad Lands and parks, both for going west to the Yellowstone and back east through the Minnesota lake region.” Among suggestions forwarded to the Greater North Dakota association is that a joint road map showing * routes through Wisconsin, Minnesota and the Dakotas be issued, toegther with suggested tours, and that this effort be followed up by proper ad- vertising and by united support of commercial associations in the area. Would Use Indian Guides Another recommendation was that an effort be made to make North Da- kota. interesting to the tourist, its points of interest emphasized and its early day romance vitalized. It was suggested that the western cattle ranches. ‘Roosevelt's connection with the business at Medora and points of | interest in the Bad Lands be brought | ” to:the attention of tourists. It would interest some, Luedke said. if an In- dian boy were to act as guide and give the Indian names of such places.

Schiller Residents Want Rail Safety at Soo Line Crossing Residents of Schiller township, Mc- Henry county, want some sort. of rerossing protection to notify them of |the approach of Soo Line trains to/ one of the main lin: railroad cross- ings in the township. Hearing on the matter will be held by the state rail- road board at Drake on March 5.

The original petition called for the construction of an underpass, but the board held that traffic at this point did not warfant the. ex- pense an underpass would entail. The railroad company pointed out that the crossing would be an open one, and an underpass would be un- fasible because As igae drainage could not be provided. It was con- tended also that difficulty would be encountered in keeping it open dur- ing the winter, due to the collecting of snow it. would cause. rt I Farm Facts ] Testing is the only way of finding out for sure whether a cow has tuber- TRANSPORTATION | Failure to File Insurance Poli- cies Penalized by Rail- road Board | | Due to failure of operators to file insurance policies, the permits of three Nortli Dakota transportation companies have been cancelled by the | state railroad board.

A committee was appointed to consider the time and place of meeting, on it being Dr. F. E. Stockton, Fargo; Rev. Howard Johnson, Fargo; Rev. A. 8. Dodgson, Minot, Rev. G. Eichler, Lin- ton, and Rev. C. Dippel, Fessenden. The committee met Wednesday night and agreed to meet again at the call of the chairman. The closing devotional hour was given over to Rev. Edwin Sundt, of Winfield, Conn. Rev. Clifford G. Cress, Chicago, field secretary of the Northern Bap- tist convention, spoke on missions. Rev. Thomas Giles, Fargo, was given 20 minutes to speak on pro- hibition. Rev. Arthur Schade, Pittsburgh, made an address on “Guiding prin- ciples in character building.” The closing hour of the conference was marked by the sending of mes- sages of sympathy to members who are ill and, consequently, were ab- sent. One message went to Don Squires, Grand Forks, and expressed the hope that his father, Dean Squires, of the university, would re- cover from a critical illness. Twenty minutes after adjourning a message came for the conference, saying the dean was slightly improved. A mes- sage was sent to Rev. W. H. Buen- ning, Linton, who has been ill some time; and to Rev. Jacob Fleming, who is in Kenmare hospital because of a car accident. Regrets were received by wire from Rev. Wyrick, First Baptist church, Grand Forks, who has accepted a call to Calvary Baptist church, Oma- ha, and consequently could not st- tend the conference. RUFFIAN-ROBBER HAS SYMPATHY FOR MAN Accept $10 of $100 From Vic- tim After Listening to Tale of Doctor's Bill Evanston, Ill, Feb. 21—(#)—'Twas @ balmy summer's ev’ning last night (climate adv.) and Dr. Oscar L. Ru- dersdorf got robbed, yes and no. The robber had a pistol and he poked it into the Rudersdorf ribs. Dr. Rudersdorf handed over an $800 dia- mont ring. . “And now your money,” said the ruffian, giving the pistol a significant Push, “I have quite a sum with me,” said the doctor, slowly. Florence Eedgcomb and E. G. Sloan were sweethearts once. Then. they had a falling out, and quit speaking to each other. Now, they don’t even write to each other. Postal inspectors and the fed- eral court have'their promise on this latter activity. After their quarrel, the pair cor: responded for weeks. The corre- spondence ended when Miss Edgcomb went to postal inspectors, declared Sloan was sending her defamatory matter through the mails, and pro- duced postcards from him, “Miss Funnyface: Why don’t you do something about that one-track mind of yours?” read one. “You are an excellent example of stupid British superiority,” reads another. Postal inspectors arrested Sloan. But he also handed them a packet of postcards he had been receiving from Miss Edgcomb. “Mr. Funnyface: How would you like to stand on your head 10 years?” is one message. “If you want me dead, you'll have to do the shooting yourself.” And more. The result was that both were brought before Federal Commissioner A. G, Fisk here, each charged with sending “scurrilous and scandalous atter,” written on postcards in red black ink, to each other. just hope you are both ashamed »” Fisk. scolded: five years:in' ing the charges because you've prom- ised postal inspectors you will ex- change no more such greetings.” . So that’s why Florence omb and E. G. Sloan don’t even write each other any more. ; LIFEGUARD MARRIED 10 TWO HEIRESSES Chicago Man Uncoicerned Over Dilemma; To ‘Annul First and Stick to Second’ Chicago, Feb. 21.—(#)—George Howell, formerly a lifeguard, express- ed little concern today over being un- der arrest for having married two heiresses without any divorce be- tween. “There will be no trouble,” he said. “Tl have my first marriage annulled understood to be a wealthy New York tobacco man.

How much money have you got?” “About one hundred dollars,” said Rudersdorf. “Well,” suggested the robber, “just slip me some change.” When Rudersdorf handed him $10 the robber took it with a display of relunctance. “I wouldn't take it; pard,” he said, “Only I ain’t got much cash myself. Hope you don’t get into a jam on those doctor’s bills.” Women Barred from British Boxing Bouts London, Feb. 21—(#)—The Daily —they don’t leave me so easily.” Nice Casino Winnings Thrown from Window Express today said that women | ¢] henceforth would be barred from at- tending boxing tournaments organ- ized by the British Army Boxing as- sociation, The paper said that heads of the association had decided that boxing was “not an edifying spec- tacle” for women.
