possible to Jump into your automobile in northern Canada and ride to Cape Horn at the tip of South America The dream of an inter-continental highway is epproaching reality One section of it the so-called Inter-American Highway connecting the southern boundary of the United States with the Panama Ca nal Zone is termed technically lea sible in ft report lust issued by the Bureau of Public Roads of the Department of Agriculture This highway would be 3250 miles long One terminus would be in Mier() Laredo Mexico Just across the Rio Grande from Laredo Tex The other terminus would be in Panama City in the Republic of Panama The road would pass through busy cities and native villages skirting tropical Jungles and volcanic peaks As a matter of fact about 40 per cent of the 3250-mile route is now in use the year around and an additional 27 per cent is usable in dry weather The task therefore Is one of modernizing existing roads and connecting them together into one super-highway Mexico five republics in Central America and the Republic of Panama will have to co-operate if the task is to be accomplished MEXICO is already doing a large share of the work the scientists report The last section of a road spanning the 760 miles between Nuevo Laredo and Mexico City is now being completed This road will be suitable for use in all sorts of weather At the other end of the route it ia possible in dry weather to cover the 340 miles between Panama City and Concencion a few miles from the Costa Rican border with ease There is also an excellent road for use in dry weather through Honduras El Salvador and Guatemala American engineers working with the co-operation of the officials of the countries involved have mapped out the route of the Inter-American Highway Aerial photography was employed to locate the best routes An estimate has been made of the cost to complete the road through Guatemala El Salvador Honduras Nicaragua Costa Rica and Panama If local materials were used it would cost about $30000000 A cement concrete surfece 20 feet wide would cost $101000000 To complete the section from Mexico City to the Guatemala bor'ler would be in the neighborhood of 50 per cent or more of the gure 4 I 4 some money left next fall" 1111011ftros BILL' half-shamefacedly would turn toward home later with all essentials of his order filled and owing much less than he 4 would have owed had not that wise old merchant who knew Bill 4 been careful with Bilrs credit Then the wise old merchant coddled a ne'er-do-well family through his crop season on $75 to $150 a year and kept him 4 stolidly working what of today? 4 Well you know the companion picture of today but let me look at the muddler of this set up The banker got abroad This was his first story: "Bill you 4 are paying too much money for goods on the credit Why don't 4 you borrow money and pay can save a lot" That sounded mighty good to Bill He borrowed the A "Oh I never use more than $150 in making a crop" said Bill I The banker let Bill sign a note and mortgage covering all his 4 tools mules cows crop etc and then instead of handing Bill $150 in cash he handed him a deposit slip and a check book Bill looked at the check book turned it over in his hands a I and the banker seeing his non-plusedness explained to him how 4 to write a check di I Still Bill held the deposit slip in his hands Imlf-afraidly really wanting to hold the money but the banker allayed those 4 fears too I Bill goes home tells the wife about it and shoWs her how he can make fill in here and sign my name" edu- eating Bill said to Molly Being new they tampered with that check book very little 4 at first but as spring wore on and a few trips to town on Satur1 day taught Bill he could go over write a check and leave the money to buy for cash what he wanted found him one day at an 4 I auction a 1 1 IRILL thought he never saw things going so cheap and while he als did not need the things being auctioned he sidled up to the l000mit auctioneer and said "You know if I had some cash I would buy some of this stuff" I The auctioneer said "You have a check book haven't you?" and Bill importantly replied "Sure" Then said actioneer "Bid 4 her in and I will take your cheek" Bill bid in burro for $5 He had no earthly use for it but he led it home Then on a Friday when Bill's legs were pretty tired from trekking behind a plow five days his mind began to run over the Cweak-line railroad of the human suddenly wanted to go 41 places 1 At noon he said "Molly let's run down to Willis and see Tom's family was 40 miles than 1 Bill or Molly had ever been save one trip in their lives Molly looked suspiciously at Bill and said "How we going to get way down there?" and Bill came right back "Why buy a ticket and ride the train" That intrigued Molly so off they went and another check had been written 41-534 tle fun to the event Julius Trout left Lewis (Egypt) Thompson holding fire extinguisher and Ed Trout in

He turned toward his old merchant friend across the streei who had never failed him told his story and went away with a little feed and food Cutting the story short again: That fall he owed the banker more than he would have owed the merchant if he had bought all there and owed the old merchant $50 besides The banker got all held the mortgage the merchant got a part of was penniless that winter!
