NATIONAL AID FOR ROADS. This Will Be An Issue In the Next Congress. Says Presi dent ot National Automo bile Association. "Congress will have the good roads question to answer at its forthcoming session, and the ac cumulating demand from all sec tions of the country makes clear that the issue must be met." as serted President John A. NN ilson of the American Automobile As sociation. who was in Washing ton recently enroute to the Pa cine Coast to preside on motor car day at the Amerian Road Congress. "With over two million auto mobiles in use, the motorists now make up an armv of road users entitled to equal consideration with all other citizens.*' says Mr. Wilson, though some of us can remember an earlier period when we were considering a special class, subject to all kinds of ham-' pering legislation and considered chiefly from a revenue producing standpoint. "But we have tinally obtained nearly all those rights which be- 1 long to the average citizens, and there is one thing in which we t take a great deal of pride and , satisfaction. In encouraging people to travel from town to town and from state to state, we have accelerated astoundir.gly the national viewpoint. Nevertheless, we niUft confess to a belief that comprehensive highway inn rove m *nt has only begun, for it is n >.v ivcvi.imr deserved attention from a crowing number of men w''i have m s: t> : > the af fairs : the n ltion."

VEACH SHOE COMP'Y. 430 Liberty Street Winston=Salem, iNorth Carolina. a characteristic talk in which he 1 said: "First and last tens of thous ands of dollars' worth of wagons and buggies have been broken up and destroyed because of the bad roads in Missouri, and hun dreds of thousands of dollars' worth of horses, mules and oxen have been wasted in the same manner—perhaps the amount would run into millions. "1 know this is not so lofty a theme as to discuss international questions of great pith and mo ment. but the problems of im proving our roads islpraetical and can be solved. What's more, it ought to be solved. It is of im mediate and pressing importance. Good roads mean increase in pop ulation—increase in wealth—in crease in church and school at tendance increase in social af fairs—in short, increase in the joy of living." Former Secretary of State, William .Jennings Bryan in an argument against any extensive ; military defense expenditure set forth that SS,O(H),(HK>,OOO in eleven years "would gridiron the United States with hard roads twelve miles apart, so that no citizen i would live more than six miles from a good road which would enable him to go anywhere." i I Mr. Bryan also said in an in terview at t >maha recently that it is only a question of time when the Federal Government will lend assistance in the building of in terstate roads. "The significant feature of Mr. Bryan's words is his reference to roads," comments Chairman George C. Diehl of 'the A. A. A. Gooi RoaJ.s Board. "This can be no other than the conception »: a nati na! system which will corre late and co-ordinate the system oi state highways, just as the state systems : rm the framework for THE DANBURY REPORTER ■ the county and township systems of highways. The A. A. A. be . lieves this ultimate development ; but hardly possible in the begin !; ning,! An interstate system » would be tangible and impressive . and would tend to unify in our 1 present somewhat haphazard sys i tems of highways. Mr. Bryan's > utterance is an encouraging in : i dicaton of the trend of thought among the men who shape our i legislative policies. I "Not long ago the chairman of State Highway Commission of ( . Maine, referring to Federal co-, I j operation in good roads, asserted that the first expenditure in a state like Maine should be for con nected seacoast roads which would permit of a quick mobolization of troops at any threatened point of attack. A similar argument had been previously put forth in re gard to the Pacific Coast and the Mexican border. The great val ue of highways and automobiles in the European conflict has been completely demonstrated and these two factors are certain to figure in national legislation re lating to military preparedness." Time Savers For The Cook. Stone .iars with tight fitting cov ers make excellent bread boxes. Articles should touch each other as little as possible while frying. Baked beans will be bettor it they are parboiled before they are put into the pot for baking. When frying be sure thai the fat is hot enough to answer the test before the article is put in. Pieces of stale bread nny be saved for brown betty puddir.g. iueen pudding or bread nv:::':ns. Meats and ilsh should be taken tivm the ice some time t efore frying or they will coil the :at. Keep the dishes containing food | closely covered and the refrUvr ati.rs will be kept from > dors. Too many articles should not be put in the h t fat at any one time, or the temperature will bt lowered and the article absorb the fat. When separating yolks from ' whites of eggs sometimes a speck of yolk slips into the white. To remove this, dip a clean cloth into warm water and wring it dry, and it will cling toitatonce.
