$2,600 for the Best Picture of
Road Work.
Washington, April 9.—A na
tion-wide photographic contest in
the interest of the “Good Roads
LEverywhere” movement, with
cahs prizes of $2,600 open to ev
erybody, was announced at the
National Highways Association
headquarters here today.
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt and
the two well known writers, Miss
[da Tarbell and Mr. Mark Sulli
van, will serve as judges in the.
centest.
Purpose of the Contest
The photographs selected in the
competition will be used to estab- |
lish in Washington a national ex
hibit on the good roads problegl
designed primarily to promote a
nationally conceived’ scheme of
highways.
In connection with the pending
legislation in Congress to have
the federal govern:nent shoulder a
part of the fask of “good roads”
construction, the National High
ways Association, it is explained,
desires to have adopted a plan for |
a system of national highways,
surveyed and located by expert
engineers, so that federal funds
will not be spent in a hit or miss
“pork barrel” fashion, but in ac
cordance with a scientific plan as
any railroad is built or as the gov
ernment itself did in the case of
the Panama Canal.
By means of the photographic
contest it is proposed to gather
a complete picture of the good
and bad road problem as it ex
ists in every, section of the coun
try,, and this the association will
use in its effort to obtain scientific
“non-pork” legislation in con
gress. -
Prizes to be Awarded
The cash prizes of $2,600 were
subscribed by General Coleman
du Pont, Chairman of the Board
of National Councillors, and Chas.
Henry Davis, President of the
National Highways Association.
The competition will be known as
the du Pont-Davis Road Photo
graph Prize Contest.
The first prize, 20 be given for
the most striking (good or bad)
roads photograph, will be a $5OO
cash award. In all there will be
166 prizes awarded.
There will be 5 second prizes
of $lOO each, 20 third prizes of
$25 each, 40 fourth prizes of $l3
each, and 100 fifth prizes of $5

All photographs should be ad

where” Photograph Contest, Nat
ional Highways Association
Washington, D. C.
Discusses Photographs Desired
Discussing the photographic
contest on Good Roads, General
du Pont of the National High
ways Association said today.
“The purpose of our Associa
tion in this matter is to see to it
that, when Uncle Sam enters upon
this work of road building, he
starts off on the right road. The
‘good roads’ issue is a national
problem as well as a state and
county problem. Whatever the
federal government does in this
matter should be done on a nat
ional basis—upon a plan national
ly conceived.
“Every member of Congress
knows the ‘good roads’ problem
in his district or state, of course,
‘but we want to have him know
it nationally.
~ We have inaugurated this pho
tographic contest as a first step
‘in this direction and we believe
that with the assistance of all
‘Americans interested in the good
roads problem we can make it
‘ a very important step, “An exhibit
‘of photographs picturing the good
! roads problems as it exists in ev
ery section of the country will
‘make a most graphic and force
ful lesson. ;
“We want the subjects of the
i;)llotographs in this contest to
demonstrate not only how bad
'roads are, and how good they can
be made, but also what it means
)to the welfare of every man, wo
‘man and child in the United to
)have good roads: For instance,
~we all know that a country school
house located in a district of good
roads has a far better attendance
of pupils, and for ehat reason can
offer them better educational op
portunities than a country school
in a district of bad roads.
“Consequently it would be of
great value in our contest to have
photographs giving a picture les
son to the eyes of our law mak
ers of what itmeans to children
in our rural school house located
on good roads. This is only one
idea that has come to me. There
are hundreds of such lessons on
the value of good roads which cap
be taught by photographs.
“Perhaps the best way to do
this is through photographs con
trasting good and bad road con
ditions. We will arrange our ex
hibit to do that, but m order to al
low individual competitors ot take
advantage of some such striking
contrast as may have come to
their attention, the Association
has not limited competitors to one
photograph, or to one prizé. Fach
competitor can send in as many
photegraphs as he wishes, and he

“Photographs will be ‘jaaged
first upon their merit in strikingly:
emphasizing road conditions
(good or bad), second in their pic
torial interest, and third in their
photographic excellence.

'4OVERNMENT ATTACKED
[ BY THE BRITISH PRESS
\ o —_— e
- London, April 17.—Today, the
date fixed for the cabinet council
to make a final decision as to
whether married men should be
conscripted, the attacks on the
government by newspapers devot
ed to the cause of conscription
reached the cimax of vehemence.
All the government’s alleged
blunders—at Antwerp and in the
Dardanelles and Mespotamia—
its alleged mistakes and delays in
connection with munitions and
the air service were reviewed and
contrasted with the perfect organ
ization reigning in enemy coun
tries. The times miitary corres
pondent printed an article with
an elaborate map purporting to
show the exact disposition of
enormous forces of German troops
massed along the British front in
Flanders and in France and draw
ing the conclusion that Great Brit
ain still is lacking the necessary
reserve to meet a big attack.
- These newspapers are openly
advocating the overthrow of the
“inefficient” ministry and exhort
the members of parliament not to
dose the opportunity in the ap
proaching debates to compel the
government either to conscript
married men or resign.
Throughout the afternoon in
the lobbies of parliament there
were rumors of grave cabinet dis
sensions and of possible resigna
tions of minority ministers who
favor universal service. -
The Press Association said it
understands that while differences
of opinion have manifested them
selves among the ministers a se
riots crisis in the ministry has
thus far been avoided. Up to the
present there’is no news of any
resignations rom the cabinet.

FOREST FIRE DESTROYS
RIVER BRIDGE IN WARE
Waycross, Ga., April 17.—One
of Ware county’s most important
Satilla river bridges was practi
cally destroyed by fire today eight
miles north of Waycross.
Six hundred feet of the wooden
approach burned. The extreme
dry condition made the forest fires
in that vicinity one of the most
dangerous in months.
Waycross, Ga., April 18—A
wire from Gen. Manager ]. D.
Mitchell to the passenger depart
ment of the Central Route, states
that the bridges on the Highway
are all right and that the fire re
ported to have destroyed the
bridge across the Satilla on the
Dixie Highway, central route,
was an error.

onsistency
OU want a motor car that will
serve you consistently. You
want to know that your car can
be relied upon day in and day out.
You want high mileage per gallon of
gasoline and freedom from repairs
and readjustments. And you want
these things, not ;Occasionally, but
continuously—day after day.
On these qualities the Maxwell has
made good. It has proved its worth.
When the Maxwell stock touring car
set the World’s Motor Non-Stop -
- Mileage Record a short time ago it
travelled for 44 consecutive days and
nights and its performance was con
sistent,
It went about 500 miles each and
every day. It went within a small
fraction of 22 miles to every gallon
of gasoline. It went the whole dis
tance of 22,000 miles—probably fur
ther than you would travel in two
years—without any repairs or read-
Justments, Every one of eight tires
(two sets) went just about 9,800
miles and the others finished in gocd
shape. For consistency and relia
bility this rccord far excels anything
we ever heard of.
You can get a Maxwell, an exact
duplicate cf the rccord breaking
stock car, on the partial payment
pPlan we have perfocted. All you
have to do is to make the initial
- payment, then take the car and
pay the balance as ycu ride. The
unusual value cf the Maxwell, to
getner with our easy payment plan
of purchase, is bound to dispose of
our allotment of cars very quickly.
Better make your reservation now,
delivery lo*er if you prefer.
