roads at the rate of six miles a day, and but few are at present equaling, or bettering, Iowa’s progress. A number of states with resources equal or superior to those of Iowa are accomplishing far less in a road building way. However, changes and improvements in methods of road financing and planning are being instituted that bid fair to bring duplications of the spirit of Iowa. The heavily traveled dirt ami gravel roads must go for they constitute about the most expensive non-luxury gnawing at the taxpayer-motorist’s pocket book. A traffic of ">00 vehicles a day, according to N. .M. Isabella, Wisconsin maintenance engineer, will wear away at least an inch of gravel in the course of a year. The yearly loss per mile of 18-foot gravel road is 400 cubic yards of material, which at a cost of ¥2.00 per yard, brings the total yearly loss to no less than $800 a mile. The maintenance cost of inferior highways often runs much higher than this figure. Consequently the placement of hard pavements eiimin-

economy.

The Republican Record Compare the Record of Achievement of the REPUBLICAN Party with the DEMOCRATIC Record of Debts, Hi«h ' Taxes and Busin ess Demoralization ECONOMY and PROSPERITY I he Republican State and National Administrations have made wonderful records for the people by lowering' taxes; saving billions oi dollars to tho taxpayers; bringing back prosperity. Here Are a Few I kings the Republicans Have Done

IN THE NATION Paid off six and one-half billion dollars of the Nation’s war debt. Reduced Federal Income taxes $1,800,000,000 a year. Made further reductions of taxes hy Go 1*28 low. Relieved over 2,300,000 persons from paying income taxes. Brought about employment at high wages and the greatest era of prosperity in history, through a prote< live tariff law. Restricted immigration for the protection of American workers against cheap foreign labor and products.

IN INDIANA Paid off the Indiana State debt. Indium is (ii,. of the few states of the I ninn out of debt Reduced the tax rate to .23 per $100.00 ol taxable-, from .4025 per hundred as under Democratic rule. Reduc'd (he valuation for taxation of pi'P'riv 3204,000,000 net, which is 15 pei e.*ntum under former valuations. Paved more than 1844.12 miles of highway: and huilt 76] bridges without i -uing any bonds or borrowing a singlo d Uar. Indiana highways have been paved on a “pay as you go” plan. Most other states have paved roads through bond issues. _ .

Consider these facts carefully. Then think, would it be good business and common sense to change from the Republican Party of economy and prosperity?
