The state highway between Nephi and Levan is in a very poor condition and just as soon as possible the Board of County Commissioners, together with a delegation of Nephi and Levan citizens should meet with the State Road Commission, and rec. ommend that a graveled surface road be built between Nephi and the Levan spur, via Levan. In the past few years, there has been some agiroad be tation for, a gravel-surfac- e tween these two points, and the the road commission has job of rebuilding this stretch. Now that the road leading from Levan to Gunnison Is part of the state road system, there is no reason for put ting forth the idea of cutting- Levan off, as was stated some time ago by one oi the Federal road men.

The following article was clipped from the Deseret News, which shows that Federal Aid will be spent in rebuilding roads during the years 9: the action of the United States Senate in passing the Dowell bill providing annual appropriations for 1928 and 1929, for federal aid in the construction of the traveled high ways throughout the country, this work may be continued for a period of two yearu. The total expenditure over the country is reported to be $75,000,000 annually. Spirited opposition developed to the bill in both houses of Congress and many opposing speeches were made, but when it came to a vote there was no doubt about the final nassase of the measure. The strong est opposition came from Representa. tives and Senators from states which pay a large federal income tax. These were inclined to object to the federal aid policy on the ground that it gave to states which paid little federal taxation a larger share of benefits than they were entitled to. Under the provisions of this law the federal aid funds before they can be obtained must be matched by equal appropriations from the diff erent states. The funds must also be used for permanent Improvements, including grading, drainage, and sur By I- , I- STADIUM OPENED AT PHILADELPHIA ' .iMMMMawMBM "' '""""""" ' - (y .lA 4 "''ft:' i - '4 Phof Tie giant arena In the centre of the Exposition site In Philadelphia Seaqul-Oenten-nl- was Iaternatlonal built in approximately 300 working days.

In Utah provision is made to take advantage of the federal aid projects in state primary road development under the direction of the state highway commission. This state will receive not less than $850,000 a year while the law is in operation to ex pend on the federal aid roads. The people of the entire state ore bene fited by good roads which are an es pecial boon to the farmers in helping them to get their produce to market. COMMUNITY LOYALTY. y Since newspapers have been estab lished, since towns and cities have hNbeen built, since commerce has un furled its sails on the high seas and turned its wheels upon the land, the idfea of community loyalty has been Kepi ueiore me ivyie iu tuaueuii e idea has phirases. The beten exploited for all that it is worth Aid it is worth a lot because what it sound is economically expresses Hiini? sound it has lived and thrived. it is good business for any commun ty to encourage local business. It is tne community asueriiuB itaoii every citizen within Its boundaries and trading zone. No merchant, newspaper or civic body desires to impose upon the peo ple of the community any impractical program or scheme of development. But the mathematical certainty of a trade-at-hom- campaign e to foster community thrift and enhance the wealth and stability of the home town is the assurance of a right motive.

The sad part of the whole uu,v piruiia matter, however, Is that Utah fell for It to the detriment of her own best Interests and to the tune of over one million dollars. Timpnogo, Bryce, Fish Lake, Zlon's, Cedar Breaks and the Grand Canyon, with all their pristine beauties, together with the attractive cities of central and southern Utah and their wonderful surroundings are sacrifices on the altar of sectional connivance and political intrigue, while the silent and sullen desert receives the palms. Too bad, we say, and who's to blame? There is only one practical all year route to the coast via Salt Lake, an.d that leads through the very heart of the state. A prominent such as now extends to Nephi, would. If continued on to our highway, southern boundary, be the greatest asset from the viewpoint of economy, utility and world wide publicity that we of Utah could possess. Juab and Sevier coun ties have available funds for such construction and are continously asking that these funds be matched with federal aid, and for that type of road only-I- t the state could And ways and means for expending $234,000 on the wastes of the Great American Desert, it could better have afforded to match this same money with federal aid and assisted the poorer counties of our southland In constructing their part of highway of this nature.
