(GOOD ROADS ASSO. HITS AT GRITICS { Members Welcome Thorough In- vestigation of Methods Asserting that it will welcome as investigation, the more thorough the better, the Connecticut Goods asso- ciation has issued a statement in which it severely rebukes its critics for articles which have appeared in certaln newspapers concerning some of the acts of the association during the past year. Incidentally, the asso- | clation takes a rap at the Warren Brothers company, announcing that | no contractor or paving company has { contributed one cent toward the wel- fare of the Connecticut Good Roads association. The statement of the association is as follows: When men seck to accomplish an object by falsehood and trickery, it is evident the object is evil. No de- cent cause needs falsehood to aid it. Numerous attacks on the Connecti- cut Good Roads association have re- cently originated in certain newspa- pers of the state. These articles are | part of a campaign by politicians who seek -to drive the association out of | existence. These politiclans seek con- trol of the state highway department. They cannot obtain it, without great and undesired publicity, as long as the Connecticut Good Roads associa- tion exists. g We will cataldgue and answer some of the falsehoods that have recently been circulated by these certain news- papers, and by concerns affiliated with them. 1.—It has been stated, falsely, that the reason Speaker Healy had “fifty requests all told,” from representa- tives who desired a position on the roads, bridges and rivers committee, was “perhaps” because of “the secret circular sent out from New Haven asking for ‘an acceleration’ fund for highways.” The article added: “Per- haps it was merely a coincidence that ‘acceleration funds and desires to serve on the committee likely to be ‘accelerated’ should come to light at the same time. This suggestion that fifty members of our house of representatives may {be “grafters” is contemptible. The man making the accusation should be arraigned before the house for | contempt. ' 2.¢+It has <been stated, falsely, that the Connecticut Good Roads associa- tion' has attempted to raise a ‘“slush fund” or “acceleration fund,” of three or four million dollars. This | falsehood 1s too absurd to notice. 3.—1It has been stated, falsely that money collected by the Good Roads association was to be used for im- proberly “influencing the legislature.” This is made from whole cloth. The Good Roads -assoclation has never had & “lobby™ " Hartford and<never expects to have. The letters, circu- /lars and bulletins sent out by the as- | sociation specify the purpose for , which money is wanted. We intend | to keep the highway question before f1he citizens of the state, so they may, { if they wish, ask their representatives {to'act. If the people of the state can- ‘not with propriety ask their repre- sentatives to vote for a measure [which they approve, for a measure which they approve, We have not a republican form of government. 4—1It has been stated falsely, that the Good Roads association has of- | fered excuses for the appeals it sent i out for funds. Neither the associa- tion, nor any of its officers, has yet seen cause for excuses. To argue ‘that our appeal. for funds was im- | proper, it is to say: First, that money coming from a paving company, Or from a oad material man, is so taint- ed that it cannot be used in an honest cause. Second that the board of di- rectors of the association, composed | of leadinz manufacturers, bankers and business men of the state, would connive in an attempt to purchase votes in the legislature. | When the millennium arrives the | temperance cause will undoubtedly | receive financial support from the | brewers of beer and the keepers of saloons. It has not arrived, and our association, to keep its head above water, must solicit funds from any- one who may contribute. 5.—It has been stated, falsely, that to ask for a highway appropriation of three or four million dollars is an “impudent, barefaced, scandalous at- tempt to raid the state treasury.” Some appropriations made in the past are as follow: 1907—$4,500,000; 1911—$3,500,000; 1913—$3,500,000; 1915—8$1,500,000. 6.—It has been stated, falsely, that the Connecticut Good Roads associa- tion sent out a “secret circular,” and that our project of an appropriation of three or four million dollars for the highways had been ‘“discovered J X SSKEL, EVERY INCH A CAR Al The 4il-Year Car Kissel’s Original Idea That Changed the Motoring Habits of a Nation, The Hundred Point The car of a ¥undred Qual- ity Features—whose appear- ance is that of a thorough- bred and in whose perform- ance critical mechanicians find nothing lacking.

The newspaper Neither the as- any any which originally printed this letter of The Warren Bros. company states editorially, in the same issue and page, that it omit- ted the name of the concern men- tioned in the Warren Bros. company’s letter because it did not ‘“‘care to pay for a law suit.” If this newspaper is printing the truth why should it fear a libel ‘'suit? No decent paper would resort to such trickery. The Warren Bros company sets it- self up as the champion of ‘“‘contract- ors who hope to secure paving con- tracts on merit.” In 1913, a few months before the present highway commissioner took office, The War- ren Bros. company received from 'Mr. McDonald, contracts amounting -to about. three-quarters of a million dol- lars for Warrenite. No one knew any such enormous amount had been given to this concern until the pres- ent highway commissioner took place and found the contracts. Is this the ‘“‘merit” system that appeals to The ‘Warren Bros. company? Is this the “merit” system. The Warren Bros. company exemplified by their success in Bridgeport, where large appropria- tions are handed over to them with- out competition? We leave it for them to answer. Baby Eight Months Old Had Itching Rash Since Birth on His Face, Neck and Back. Two Cakes Cuticura Soap and One just in time.” 1In the past two years we have sent out some twenty thou- sand ‘“secret circulars,”” urging this appropriation. We have had two men canvassing for members from one end | of the state to the other, stating we desired this appropriation. Officers of the association have made many | public addresses during the past four | years urging it. The officers of the | eight county farm bureaus of the | state were invited to the last annual | meeting of the board of directors of the Connecticut Good Roads associa- tion on January 2, 1917, to discuss concerted action on the appropria- tion. ‘We obtained all possible pub- licity for our aims, objects and views. This is the manner in which we have Kkept our ‘‘plot”’ secret. The only “‘amazing” thing is that there is anv- one in the state who did not know it. 7.—It has been stated falsely, in the public letter of The Warren Bros. company, that the Good Roads asso- ciation ““has for some time past been an ardent advocate of the ‘X X XX's causing and inserting “X X XX that the association has been promoting the interests of some particularly road building concern.

The newspaper, which acts as the bublicity agent of the politicians seeking control of the highwa de- vartment, insists an investiga- tion of th lush fund” of | the Good ation must be had. ‘‘Slush fund” implies that some one has money to use. Investigation will show that, with all bills paid on January 1, 1917, we would have had a net balance of 1 $76.73 in the treasury. This balance is the “slush fund” with which we are to ‘“‘accelerate the passage” of the highway appropriation through the legislature. The Connecticut Good Roads asso- ciation, its officers and directors, will { welcome an investigation by any ! committece. The deeper the investi- gation, the more welcome. We have absolutely nothing to conceal. If such an investigation is undertaken, and is completed, the seifish personal interests behind this attack upon the Connecticut Good Roads association will be revealed. It will accomplish the very ends we seek to attain and place the truth before the public. For the benefit of the Warren Bros. | years { due honor. One man alone made pro- | test, saying, ‘I fear the Greeks, even company and their publicity agents I will say that no contractor, no paving company, and no road mater- ial concern is a contributor to the Connecticut Good Roads association. In ancient times, as Virgil tells us, the City of Troy withstood for ten the besieging forces of the Greeks. With all their power of men, money and arms the Greeks could not break down the impregnable de- fenses of the city. One day, before the gates of the city, appeared a huge wooden horse, a present from the Grecks to the Trojans. The gift was accepted and installed in the city with ! when bearing gifts.” At night a secret door in the horse ‘was opened, a picked band of armed Greeks sprang out, assailed the Tro- jans from behind, in the dark, and Troy was lost. What men, money and ' arms could not accomplish was ac- complished by a false token of good will. It might be well to find out what is inside the “Warrenite” horse be- fore giving it a place of honor in the capitol at Hartford. N D. H. ARMSTRONG DBuffy’s Pure In Pneumonia D. H.
