USE TRUCKS OX THE H Hill WAYS, IMiil Opposed to Letting Valuable Machine**' Itust Out in Weather. Washington, June 22.-Senator N, j li. Dial, of South Carolina, for some j time past has been endeavoring to 1 secure as much of tho surplus army I property as possible In the way of j automobiles and road equipment for I the highway commission of South Carolina . "I can see no good reason," he said, "for the army keeping its trucks nnd j letting them rust out in the weather. I As 1 stated a whilo ago, last Satur day I saw hundreds of trucks perhaps at Camp Hollabird, out there tn the j weather, and my Information ls that j they were put there before the arm istice. I' have telephoned the bureau of roads, but they told me they had no trucks whatever ut Camp Holla I bird. They further told me that they could use all the trucks'they could get. The trucks I saw are absolutely new and have never been used. I cannot see any difference between th War Department, the Dosloifice Department or the rcood roads bu ' ronu, or any other department. The j property ls bought from the money collected from the tuxes of the peo ple and is paid out ol' tlx* same pock etbook. I do not want to be unfriend ly to the War Depart nient, but 1 de not want it io arrogate to itself thc belief that it can take this property and keep it there and let it rust oui I can sec no heller use for tiles? I trucks than for building good roads lt" the I'ostodiee Department need? 1 sinne, let the 1'ostolllcc Departineni have them. There should be no an tagonisin whatever between the Wai Department and any other depart nient ol' this government. To mj mind, the War Depart nient does no need those trucks; otherwise tllOJ would have used them long befen this. "I think it would be very well l< let half of them go, but if we sell tin other half we will get very little fo them. We will throw them away The point I am trying to bring t. the attention of the Senate is tba the property of the United State ought to be used. It ought not to b allowed to rust out. We should d' everything we can lo build up th roads in this country. I have no ill will against the War Department, have a great many friends in tba department, but. the people of thi eottnir> are a litte hit impatient uve their extra vac... nee." in .?; word S^rtatm Dial's pOfO.io < is (hal !> makes no Jiffereuce wini department hua these trucks; that i is absolutely wrong to allow them t deteriorate when all the State higl way commissions are bogging fe them. Whatever friction may exi: between the War Depart nient an any other depart nient, he believe should cease, and the best use V made of the various articles of equi] nient in the interest of the peop generally, ile said he would contint his ellorts and follow up every po sibe avenue io secure them for big] way objects instead of seeing the rust in many places throughout tl country. "The people." Senator Dial co eluded, "are a little bit impntiei over the extravagance of tho Wi Department.
