The company states that it expects to expend between 36 and 37 millions of dollars in and around Detroit during 1932. This is an addition to that which will be required for interest and dividends to Bond- holders and Stockholders. Of this amount more than 28 millions will lie required for the operation and maintenance of the Company's pow- er plants, substations. lines and other Company property, while while from 8 to 9 millions will pro- bably he required for new con- struction work. The largest single item of ex- pense is to cover the payrolls of the [ Companys 7,500 operating anti con- struction employes. The next lar- gest expenditure will lie for taxes which are expected to increase in rate, as usual. The Company ex- pects to have to pay out aliotir 12 rent$^fn taxes for every dollar of efbss revenue received in 1932.

Over §50,000 has been set up iu the 1932 budget of the Detroit Edi- son company for farm line exten- ' sions and new service connections around Plymouth and vicinity ac- cording to District Agent Edward Millis, who is directly in charge of affairs of the company in this district. Edison service has proven popular with farmers in this dis- trict and a considerable portion of the 1932 requirements to extend ser- vice to new customers will be used for farm line extensions. The Com- pany expects to build about 200 miles of farm lines throughout its whole territory during the coming year.

A total of 152 villages are listed j iu the bulletin with comparative data on budgets, taxation and re- venues shown. The tax reduction I for Plymouth is shown as 22.9 peri cent for 1931 compared with 1930. There were 25 other Villages show- ing a reduction greater than Plym- outh. l>ut only two of these were1 in villages of over 2,000 population, the greatest portion lieing in very ' •small .communities. The trend of all budgets ap- peured to lx* downward, only a very j small jiercentage being above last year. The smaller cities without large bond obligations were able to make the greatest reduction in operating costs. DIES AT AGE OF 87 Amelia II.

COUNTY TAKES OVER SIOEETS Pythian Knights IlCUf A To Install Officers IlLlI Thursday Evening BUSIN By HENRY FORD What will another half century bring? No one can visualize with any degree of accuracy because human progress Is full of surprises and strays from the course it seems to have selected. In the region of material im- provement. there will be an entire- ly different world iu less than fifty years hencesomething bo entirey different that it is not pos- sible to visualize it. One Important reason for this is the new freedom of life which people are to enjoy. The present-day life Is fettered and bound by all sorts of outworn systems that must pass away. We shall have a new money system, the effect of which will be to li- berate human energies instead of restricting them: we shall have a saner social system in which the insecurities of life will be greatly diminished and such an unneces- sary and unnatural thing as unem- ployment shall utterly pass away. To me it is clear that the future will put more stress on human value than on any other one thing. It is coming so fast now that I think it safe to say that In another ten years there will be more thought given to the rights of personality, a fact In itself that will amount to a social revolution. The abject spectacle of men be- ing reduced to the humiliation of having to offer or having to accept public charity will be an ancient dream and no longer a modern reality. In the years to come the waste of youth in useless preparation for lives they will never live, the waste of old age lieenuse we have not learned how to use the accumulat- ed experience of old persons will no longer exist. Youth will be freed and old age will be made doubly useful in the time to come. The commotions of this present time are simply part of the preparatory pains heralding the hirtli of a truly new ora. By W. W. ATTERBURY President the Pennsylvania Rail- road. former director of United i States Military Hallways In France with rank of Bcigadier-General. The possibilities of progress in transportation of the future are so unlimited that tiie only definite prediction 1 feel able to make with confidence is that the railroads will remain the backbone of our trans- portation system. They possess such enormous advantages for the mass movement of freight and passen- gers that there is nothing iu sight to displace them as the basic agency. I' visualize them as the main arteries of travel and •commerce, with their operators geared to heavy loads and high speeds, and serving directly only the large cen- ters. Intermediate, local and feed- er service, as well as short distance service, is rapidly going to tiie high- ways. Eleetrifiiation will be enormous- ly extended, certainly to include all the densely populated areas, as well ns service over heavy grades. The large railroad systems of the future will be complete integrated enter- prises serving the public ,hy rail, highway, airway, waterway, lake and sea. Laws impeding them from so doing will lx* recognized as in- jurious and repealed. Public opinion will undergo great changed with respect to the value of competition, particularly that which Is artificially enforced by the so-called uuti-trust laws. The [ rigors ,of the latter will enevitahly ! yield to the march of progress. 1 I expect to see private owner- ship remain. I believe that regula- j tion of the railroad Is now at the peak of its restrictive effects and will become more and more con- .structive with the passing of time, bringing all agencies of interstate transport, by water, highway and airinland, coast-wise and inter- coastalunder Federal regulation. i (Continued on page nine.) To Care For Mill, Ann Arbor And Schoolcraft Streets . Within Village The Village Commission has re- ceived a retjuest from tiie Wayne County Hbad commission to take over MillKstreet, (Lilley Hoad) from Plyniiutli Hoad to Golden Hoad. Aiig .Arbor street from the end of the pavement at Hamilton street, to the easterly city limits and Schoolcraft extension from tiie city limits to Starkweather Ave. This request comes as a result of a new state law recently passed which places all roads in the town- ships under the jurisdiction of the County Highway Commission. 295® of which will be taken over this year and a like amount each year until all roads have been placed in the hands of the county. The reason for requesting the above named roads within the Vil- lage is that they are all important- through roads in the county high- way system. All maintenance and Improvement work will be done by the county after the roads have been turned over. The mutter was referred to the Village Manager to draw a reso- lution as requested by the Road Commission, incorporating in such reservations as may be necessary to protect the interests of the resi- dents on these streets and the Vil- lage at large. Next Thursday evening the Knights of Pythias will install their officers in a joint ceremony witlii tiie Pythian Sisters. Tills service, which is indeed an impressive One. will lie held iu oix*n assembly so that all may attend. The costuming and general at- mospheiv is such that it seems hut a short step back to the days when errant knights were rescuing fair maidens from the dismal dun- geon of som<dreary castle. The Knights of Pythias depend on ancient chivalry and knighthood to lend color to their ceremonies, hut their purjiose is intensely mo- dern, patriotic and progressive. The public is invited to attend these ceremonies and acquaint themselves with the order. A splen- did program has been arranged of special music, vocal and trumpet solos and a sjiecial address by Fred M. Breems. Grand Outer Guard. The following officers will be Installed: Chancellor Commander Russell Blngley. Vice ChancellorJames Gotcli. Prelate—Loren Goodale. Master of WorkGlenn Davis. Master of Finance Ernest Rossow.

Ohio Will Honor 1931 Auto Licenses Secretary of State Frank D. Fitzgerald was informed on Dec. 30 that Michigan motorists may use 1931 license plates in several near- by states until March 1. 1S32. States that have agreed to honor Michigan 1931 plates until March 1 include Ohio, Illinois, New Toriu Wisconsin. Indiana and Pennsyl- vania as also the Province of On- tario. Canada. Florida Weather Comes To Michigan Florida has nothing on Plymouth when it comes to delightful winter weather. Not for years has Michigan en- joyed the warm, snowless and ice- less conditions that have prevailed during recent weeks. How long it will last the weather man has not indicated but not for years lias this part of the country enjoyed such an open winter ns this has been. Rain has fallen instead of snow and up to the middle of the present week there has been practically no freesing weather. Bat there are two long months before it can be said that winter is over. Officers Believe Gann That Operated Here -Now In Jail Deputy Sheriff George Springer Tuesday arrested and brought be- fore Justice Loomis, Mrs. Ethel Buck, held on a larceny charge as the result of the tbeft of 40 bushels of oats from Ralph Cole, who lives just west of Plymouth on the Pen- niman road. She was giyen 90 days iu tiie Detroit House of .Correction. Two others, Joe Buck and Leo Go- linski, were arrested by Pontiac •officers and are now held for trial iu circuit court, in Oakland county on grand larceny charges. One of I he men claims to be the husband of the woman Deputy Springer ar- rested. They were caught while stealing-sheep from the Harry Van lhun farm near South Lyen. The three at one time lived on the Frank B. Ainger farm, north- west of l^ymiouth on tiie Beck road and officers believe that the Bixmerwns thefts from farms in this locality have been committed by them. Not only have hundreds off chickens been stolen, bm live «reek ami farm materials of all kinds have lieen taken from places a rewind Plymouth. They Iiv.«l on a small place near Memphis, where their agtolen plun- der was taken before b^rng disposed of. L*t was sit this place- where the offioers recovered the- oats and a 30 foot Top? stolen from C*ie. The sheep taken from the Van Dam place were also recovered .there. Two robberies, olie a hold-up, have been reported to Plymouth police from Northville within the ; past few days. loist Saturday night; as Epliam Van Valkenburg was on his way home from downtown he was stopped by three young fellows , near tiie high school building, who I forced him to walk between I lie I school buildings, where they search-' eil him. Apparently enraged because i they did not find only a few I cents in liis pocket, one of them 1 threatened to kill him. Another member of the gang said not to do it. Van Valkeuburgh declares he recognized the voice «»f one of the men. Wixlnesday morning when em- ployes of the (asteriine Service sta- tion. located near the Globe factory in Northville, opened the place, they discoverwl that it had liven broken into, and $75 taken from the till. Three automobile tires and three batteries, as well as a number of other small articles were taken. Officers have Ix*en unable T'o find a clew to the robbers.

Thanks Sheriff For His Christmas Aid Supervisor -Charles Rathbun, and the Plymouth Welfare commission have expressed their appreciation K> Sheriff Henry Behrendt for sending to tills commmaily 17 big Christmas baskets that were used in providing .a happy Christmas time for a number of needy fam- ilies in this part of Wayne county. Supervisor Rathburn states that the baskets the sheriff sent out to be used in Plymouth township, not only contained all of the necessary articles for an excellent Christmas dinner, but supplies for a consider- able number of meals after Ohrist- The sheriff sent assistance to the j unemployed in every township in the county. Sheriff Behre-ndt has been brought in direct contact with I the needs of thousands of families | in Wayne county as the result of i his work and It was therefore that i he did so much for the unemployed at Christmas time. Mrs. Albert Drews has moved from 332 W. Liberty St. to 300 Blank Ave. PAST YEAR THE HOTTEST KNOWN The fellow who kept repeating tluwugh most of 1932, "Cosh, It's hot," really had something to talk about. Official reeorCLs of the Weather Bureau show the past year as the wannest on record for nearly every state. While generally there was an ex- cess of high temperature, then also was a noticeable lack of dis- turbing and costly weatter pheno- mena, such as the widespread drouths of 1930, severe tropical storms and tornadoes and devast- ating floods. Surrounded by bis charts and fig- ures, J. B. Kineer, meteorologist, traced the excessive warmth to low pressure areas In the north and high pressure areas In the south which let Sn warm winds from southern waters. The last comparable year was 1921. Kineer said he believes 1931 to be the culmination of 10years of warm weather dating back to the unusually cold winter of 1917, 1918. Two bad drouth areas, however, spotted the years weather map The first occurred in the spring in the northwestern states of Montana, North and South Dakota.

Thieves Steal A Large Walnut Tree Deputy Sln-riff George Springer Jias issued a general warning io farm owners to wati-h their wood- lots following tin- report of numer- ous thefts of walnut trees. Charles A. Hoot of Ann street who owns a farm six miles west of Plymouth on 1 . S. No. 12. had a large tree cut on tin- night fit' December 20 and only the grxxi ]x>rtions of it taken. Some one look :*. who knew all about lumber, being cut in 10 foot lengths, another section being ex- actly 8 feet long. It was apparently reinoved by a large truck that used a derrick. The tree was located on the north side of the road. Not only are farmers having their stock and poultry taken, but thieves are even removing trees, states Mr. Springer. Production of Machines Sends Conditions In Michigan On Upward Trend. YEAR 1931 NOT AS GOOD AS THE PREVIOUS YEAR Business Leaders Hopeful Of ' An Improvement During 1932Review Of Conditions Throughout State Somewhat Encouraging. | A substantial improvement in ' Micbigap industrial activity is ! evident as a result of the intro- I duction of the 1932 automobile I models, according to Dr. Ralph E. Badger, executive vice president and Carl F. Behrens, economist, of the Union Guardian Trust Com, jwny, unit of the Guardian Detroit Union Group, Inc. This improve- ment will probably continue to be evident throughout January. Deal- ers' stocks are reported to have reached unusually low levels for this period of the year due to cur- tailed output iu the final months of 1931. As shown in the following table, sales exceeded production each month during the iK*riod from June to November, 1931: Comparison of Passenger Car Production and Sales by Months during 1931 : Production Sales Jan. 137.805 120.78(1 Fqb. 179,890 134.1.*..: March 230.834 290.841 April 286.252 205.732 May 271.135 247.727 June 219.036 291.911 July 183.993 194.291 Aug. 155.321 155.797 Sept. 199.087 124.875 Oct. 57.764 102.639 Nov. 48,185 76.900 1,870,302 1,839.64/ Since tin* prtxluctiou figures in- clude exports and s-liipnieuts to in- sular and outiying possessions and since the registration figures in- dicating sales are not complete, it is conceivable that tiie excess of sales over production is even great- er than is indicated by the figures. What will happen after dealer- stocking lias been completed cannot lx- forecast with any degree of cer- tainty. A number of the 1932 models have already appeanxl and ' bid fair to make a strong apix-al to jHitentinl automobile purchasers iu 1932. Tiie trend of general business in the United States, however, is I lie factor which is of iwraniounl iiuportauee in I he outlook for the automobile industry. A continuation of the deflationary movement well into 1932 must of necessity curtail purchases. A definite turn in ltusi- i ness. on tin* other hand, might eon- I eeivably release a large amount of j purchasing |>ower in which the automobile industry should share.

    That the company expects to car- 1gram of

    expansion and development during the present year than it did last year is evident from the statement of the company just issued. The company states that it expects to expend between 36 and 37 millions of dollars in and around Detroit during 1932. This is an addition to that which will be required for interest and dividends to Bondholders and Stockholders. Of this amount more than 28 millions will lie required for the operation and maintenance of the Company's power plants, substations. lines and other Company property, while while from 8 to 9 millions will probably he required for new construction work.

    The largest single item of expense is to cover the payrolls of the [Company’s 7,500 operating anti construction employes. The next largest expenditure will lie for taxes which are expected to increase in rate, as usual. The Company expects to have to pay out aliotir 12 rent$^fn taxes for every dollar of efbss revenue received in 1932.

    the 1932 budget of the Detroit Edison company for farm line exten- ' sions and new service connections around Plymouth and vicinity according to District Agent Edward Millis, who is directly in charge of affairs of the company in this district. Edison service has proven popular with farmers in this district and a considerable portion of the 1932 requirements to extend service to new customers will be used for farm line extensions. The Company expects to build about 200 miles of farm lines throughout its whole territory during the coming year.

    A total of 152 villages are listed j iu the bulletin with comparative data on budgets, taxation and revenues shown. The tax reduction I for Plymouth is shown as 22.9 peri cent for 1931 compared with 1930. There were 25 other Villages showing a reduction greater than Plymouth. l>ut only two of these were1 in villages of over 2,000 population, the greatest portion lieing in very ' •small .communities.

    The trend of all budgets ap- peured to lx* downward, only a very j small jiercentage being above last year. The smaller cities without large bond obligations were able to make the greatest reduction in operating costs.

    YEAR 1931 NOT AS GOOD AS THE PREVIOUS YEAR

    Business Leaders Hopeful Of ' An Improvement During

    1932—Review Of Conditions Throughout State Somewhat Encouraging.

    | A substantial improvement in ' Micbigap industrial activity is ! evident as a result of the intro- I duction of the 1932 automobile I models, according to Dr. Ralph E. Badger, executive vice president and Carl F. Behrens, economist, of the Union Guardian Trust Com, jwny, unit of the Guardian Detroit Union Group, Inc. This improvement will probably continue to be evident throughout January. Dealers' stocks are reported to have reached unusually low levels for this period of the year due to curtailed output iu the final months of 1931. As shown in the following table, sales exceeded production each month during the iK*riod from June to November, 1931:

    What will happen after dealer- stocking lias been completed cannot lx- forecast with any degree of certainty. A number of the 1932 models have already appeanxl and

    ' bid fair to make a strong apix-al to jHitentinl automobile purchasers iu 1932. Tiie trend of general business in the United States, however, is I lie factor which is of iwraniounl iiuportauee in I he outlook for the automobile industry. A continuation of the deflationary movement well into 1932 must of necessity curtail purchases. A definite turn in ltusi-

    i ness. on tin* other hand, might eon- I eeivably release a large amount of j purchasing |>ower in which the automobile industry should share.

    What’s Newin the New Chevrolet Six

    When you read what's new in the new Chevrolet Six, you, too, will

    agree it’s the Great American Value for 1932: Syncro-Mesh and Free Wheeling combined for the first time in a low-priced car! Engine and

    . chassis improvements that raise performance to new heights of power, speed and smoothness! The

    finest Fisher bodies Chevrolet has ever introduced. And the same qualities of reliability and economy that have won the approval of millions of Chevrolet owners. All these you will find in the new Chevrolet Six at one of the lowest prices in the market! That’s why the new Chevrolet Six is called the Great American Value for 1932.

    Syncro-Mesh TransmissionThis well-known feature of high-priced cars brings new handling ease and car control to the low-price field. Syncro-Mesh permits you to shift gears with marvelous quickness, quietness and ease. As a safety factor, it is especially valuable. For it enables you to shift rapidly from high back into second, any time you want to use the engine as a brake.

    A Smoother, Improved Six-Cylinder Engine

    New thrills await you in the Chevrolet Six— new power, pick-up, smoothness and speed. For Chevrolet’s valve-in-head engine now has down-draft carburetion, a new cylinder head, new manifolding, a counter-balanced crankshaft and rubber mounting,features that increase power 20 per cent to 60 horsepower.

    Simplffled Free WheelingChevrolet Free Wheeling is a new and advanced type, extremely simple in construction. You may take advantage of its thrills by simply pressing a button on the dash. Until you pull the button out again, you are "in” Free Wheeling. You coast along on momentum, when your foot is off the accelerator. And you shift with magical ease.

    65 to 70 MHm on Hoar and Faster Acceleration

    New features in Chevrolet’s six- cylinder engine enable it to develop 65 to 70 miles an hour and give it a stop-watch acceleration from 0 to 33 miles in 6.7 seconds.

    A new chromium-plated radiator, built-in radiator grille, double tie-bar, trumpet-type horn, and bullet-type headlamps form a striking front-end ensemble.

    A new method of mounting front fenders,lamps,double tie-bar and radiator to the frame—exclusive to Chevrolet —gives a fine feeling of steadiness on rough roads.

    The new Fisher bodies are the smartest ever to appear in the low-price field. Their famous wood-and-steel construction is even stronger and quieter. AU occupants enjoy greater vision.

    And the following Chevrolet features that have won the approval of millions of owners: Powerful Four-Wheel Brakes . . . Hydraulic Shock Absorbers

    . . . Semi-Elliptic Springs . . . Full Length Frame . . . Insulated Driver’s Compartment

    The down-draft carburetor is a big factor in Chevrolet's finer performance. An intake silencer and heat control device are com- binedswith it for greater quietness and efficiency at ail speeds.

    An interesting convenience in the Fisher Bodies is the new adjustable front seat. A touch on a lever enables you to move the seat to any position. This is exclusive to Chevrolet in its field.

    FORMER PLYMOUTH CITY MANAGER TELLS OF STEPS

    TO END NUISANCE

    , Every community lias its prob- 1 J leni ami the problem at Fort At-1 j kinson. Wisconsin. where Adolph Koenig, former city manager of

    I Plymouth'is now acting in the same [capacity in that city, is the hobo nuisance. Fort Atkinson is a sort

    | of gateway from Chicago to the : northwest and as a result it has I been for years over-run with I i tramps. The present winter has set'll a far greater number of these

    [transients on the road than ever i before and according to the Jefferson Comity Union, the newspaper

    ! published at Fort Atkinson, city I officials bail to make some provi- | sion for their care.

    The following intetview with the I former PJymouth resident who is [making an excellent rworil in the.I Wisconsin city, pertaining to the ' opening of "Hobo Hotel" appeared i in a recent issue of the Union : !I “In view of steps having lately been taken by the city administration looking toward control of the | holm and tramp problem in our community, a few wortls of expla-, nation with regard to our plan and I proposed policy would he perhaps. in order.

    "Facts and figures at liand indicate that so far this season far more men are applying for lodging, at the city jail than were accommo-1 dated up to the corresponding time last year: that begging and panhandling in our residential and business districts have increised to the point of being not only an annoying nuisance but a serious pro- lem; and that a far greater proper-1 tion of the holxi contingent than ever before dining recent years consists of men with skilled occupations who, because of the depression. are not employed. Further, that among genuine hoboes. Foyt Atkinson has lieen rated as among the most hospitable cities in the country toward the traveling brethren. which partly explains why so many seek accommodations here.

    “It lias lieen found that during the summer moirths. numbers of j tramps and holmes inhabit the[ so-called 'jungle' along the railroad tracks for periods of weeks ! at a time, living the while off of 1 our community, creating a serious j local problem and subject to prae-1 lically no control. 1

    “The city administration lias felt that ir is definitely possible to

    1 place tin* whole problem strictly1 ‘under police control: provide sleep-i ' ing quarters and some food for these j transients through co-operation of. the community at insignificant cost.i

    . emphasizing particularly only a !• very brief stay in our locality: aud 1 definitely to put an end to all beg- ' ging and panhandling here.; "To this eml an unused brick'[ building upon the vacant property .[ owned by the city upon West Sher-1 | man Ave. is lieing fitted out as a ' j lodge for the hoboes. Merchants j i and restaurant owners have pro- i ! niised to cooperate by furnishing i I for the lodge those odds and ends j of food which at present’are thrown away, but which can be utilized by

    * [ the men for food purposes. These Associate Member American j collected once a day. andSociety of Civil Engineer. .-ooke,, at the lodge by the then

    Without your telephone, you would miss many of the delightful social events you so enjoy.

    Invitations to impromptu parties, gotten up “on the spur of the moment,” aye almost always extended by telephone. Informal bridge games . . . luncheons . . . shopping trips . . . theater parties . . . scores of such events are arranged by telephone.

    The telephone in your home is a great social asset. And in case 9f fire, sickness or other emergency,, telephone service is priceless.

    As a result, our business and that o2 Firestone Dealers throughout the country, increased so fast that it has been necessary for Firestone to run their factories twenty- four hours a day and Firestone sold more tires in April, May and June than in any like period in the history of the company.

    In our advertising we do not make comparisons involving laboratory tests which you cannot verify except in a laboratory — neither do we make comparisons of construction or price based on misleading classifications such as first line tire, second line tire or third line tire*-—we do not make comparisons to confuse and mislead you as to actual values, and service——we only make statements and comparisons that you can verify for yourself in our store before you purchase the tire.

    “Our definitions pointed out, ‘Although each manufacturer's or distributor's first line tire may represent his best standard size 4 or 6 ply tire, there is not necessarily any equality of competitive first line tires as to materials, workmanship or price.' This interpretation also applies to all lines of tires.

    “We therefore recommend that advertising to

    2 consumer shall avoid .? use of these terms

    >r the purpose of com- paringcompetiti ve products.”

    * A “Special Brand”Tire is made by a manufacturer for distributors such as Mail Order houses, oil companies and others, under a name that does not identify the tire manufacturer to the

    Cublic, usually because e builds his “best quality” tires under his own name. Firestone puts his name on every tire he makes.

    Double Guarantee—Every tire manufactured by Firestone bears the name Firestone and carries Firestope’s unlimited guarantee and ours. You are doubly protected.

The puriwse of this day is to ask Gbd in His Goodness to restore blessings upon mankind: and to return peace amongst men.

    Among the Bible citations was this passage (Rev. 1:8): "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is. and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty."

    Correlative passages read from the Christian Science Textbook. “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures." by Mary Baker Eddy, included the following (p. 275) : "The starting-point of divine Science is that God. Spirit, is All- in-all. and that there is no other might nor Mind.—that God is Love, and therefore He is divine Principle. To grasp the reality and order of being in its Science, you

    i must begin by reckoning God as I the divine Principle of all that Ueal- lly is."

    AMERICA’S FUTURE(Continued from Page 1)

    By CHARLES M. SCHWABChalrtnan Bethlehem Steel Cor-

    pbriitiou.

    In looking forward to tliv trend of industry over a period of fifty years, one can only point out certain present-day principles which appear to have the greatest vitality and potentialities for development.

    Research leading to new products and improvement iy existing prt>- ducts has received great impetus in the past ten yearp, and it is clear to industrialists that this work is only in its beginning. The airship industry, for example, has developed to a point where much practical progress is inevitable. In steel a great deal is being done in the production of lighter weight metals, also in the manufacture of ehronium and other alloys which will extend their use. These are but examples ot research progress which is to be found in virtually all industries. Electrification of our railroad lines is going forward with marked rapidity and promises well for the future of our transportation system.

    The management of industry will. I believe, be on an increasingly higher plane. The management of vast corporations is a new, largely post-war. problem which has arisen in most difficult times. Management has had its growing pains in developing industry from a wartime to a peace-time basis, in going through the boom period and now is facing, the post-war reaction.

    The earnest efforts of the present era will prove a valuable education in meeting problems of the future.

    Finally, I believe that the industrial future of America will witness a new and broader attitude in respect to the responsibility of industry to the employee.

    By HORATIO S. E ARLEBuilder of tin* first mile of con

    crete road ever built in the world and the founder of the American Road Builders' Associaiion,

    Thirty years ago I sent invitations to 200 men located in different States to meet me in New York for the puriMise of forming a good roads association. Three dared to come and have it known that they were for more and better highways. Now. when the annual meetings of tile American Road Builders' As- sociatio'n are held, there are from 25.000 to 30.000 i»ersons in attendance.

    At that first meeting, held February 13. 1902. we four adopted a resolution favoring a highway connecting every State capital including. of course the luitioiful capital at Washingto. I had no idea tliat I would live to see what we then considered almost impossible task eonsumniated. Yet it is true today. One can jump into one's car now and drive over perfectly good roads to every State capital in the United States and to Mipsli- ington. And. more than that, then1 is hardly a city of 5000 persons anywhere in the country that is not connected witli this wonderful good roads system. It was accomplished in thirty years!

    What can we expeer in the next fifty years? That every road over which pass five vehicles a day will
