Recent suggestions to chambers of | commerce t lower food costs and increase the business of their city! and community through the establish- ment of co-operative inter city and | rural motor truck lines is receiving | favorable comment everywhere. “Motor truck lines will open yp a: market for produce and stimulate} production—the farmer 10, 15 or 20 miles out is just as close to town as | the one at the edge of town,” ways) the Marion, Ohio, chamber of com-! merce. “The business men in Marion, and | in every other live town in the United | States, can afford and do subscribe | —say $30,000 to $60,000 for the lo-| cation of a factory to employ not more than 200 to 250: people—some 1,000 to 1,250 additional population,” continues J. A. Williams, secretary | of the Marion chamber. “What’s this subscription for and) why do they subscribe? Because they } know it means dollars and cents to them in trade, in the value of their real estate, in everything. They can figure out, by the law of averages, what those 200 or 300 families are worth—in groceries, clothing, shoes, , hardware, theater tickets, medicine and what-not. If such a factory is worth, $45,000, and it surely is, then a co-operative truck line putting ap- proximately 100,000 people under their digect influence is truck line will do that and more for | Marion or any, other city.’ ERTLE GETS GEGISION IN TELUE-ROQND BOUT certainly | .¢, worth, much. more, as an investment, . not ag a gift. ‘The inter-city and rural | 54; | ’ Increased Business and Cheaper} Projects Mapped O Out by States Not to Be Infringed Upon by | Federal Work, A.

Off- | cial Says in Discussion. f WASHIE STON, D, C., April 19.— j “That the building of a national high- |way syste will take away -the’ work of varlo:s state highway depart- jments is a contention frequently tmadg bit entirely at variance with facts ard logic,” says John A. Wil- json, pa.t president of the American | Autom abile association. “Poxty-four states have established definite systems of main highways either by legislative action or by ac- tion of state and local officials, aggre- gati:g according to the latest sta- tistics 203,523 miles exclusive of a considerable x --%e of local roads ton which the staivs o>* granting aid, Three thousand, one h...!--d miles ‘of such roads are projected asl Wyoming. “With additions which are being ‘made from time to time to these sys- tems,” continued Mr. Wilson, “and taking into account the four addi- tional states on an average basis, we may. look to see at least 250,000 miles of state highways or 10 per cent of the total mileage as the approximate length of main state highways. As the years go on this will increase so as probably to always form about 10 ;per cent of the total highway mile- age. If the federal government takes over a system of fifty to seventy-five d miles it will cut into the only to the extent of 25 per cent and there will enough main trunk line highways to say nothing of the local state aid roads to keep every dollar of state money and every man of state forces busy for a good many years to come.” _~ Good roads benefit the rancher, the Automobile thieves would be be foiled j-=—=—— if the suggestion of H. . Hyser, Grand Rapids, Michigan, is enacted | into. law. Here’s his plan: Authorize the secretary of state to issue exclusive permits to owners of automobies to use certain numbers, names or de- vices to brand certain parts of their. cars and the brands to be placed in certain designated spots. Require these marks to be cut, stamped or stained into the material of the part in such a manner that) they. would not be removed or ob- literated without defacing or muti- lating the parts. Make it a crime to drive a car with such markings de- faced. Make the permit from the secre- tary of state evidence of ownership when issued and transferable with the car by being duly acknowledged before a notary, these acknowledge- ments to be written on the permit, thus forming a chain of title like an abstract. This plan was suggested to Mr. “yser by the Goodrich company’s advice to all motorists to cheat the tire thief by branding the inside of a tire casing. His plan seems feasible | and should be considered by automo- bile clubs and other agencies active in protection of car owners against burglary. ge The workingman, the merchant and he capitalist all benefit by good voads.
