WILSON MESSAGE
IN NOW FINISHED
To Read Views on Ati-trust Reform
Before Two Houses.
Washington, Jan. 18.---President Wil
son's 'message on anti-trust reform,
which he will read to congress Tues
day, had received its finishing touch
today.
The message will be the opening
utterance by the administration on
the scope. of legislation it believes
should be promptly enacted not only
to correct those evils in modern busi
ness generally deprecated by public
'opinion, but to construct a system of
government assistance that will stim
ulate business enterprise and develop
Sment.
The president intends to emphasize
the necessity for a friendly spirit.
lie wishes business men to be as
suried of the administration's inten
tion to welcome suggestions and con
mon counsel and to afford those af
fected ample time to adjust them
selves to new laws or conditions. Free
criticis-im anud exiression of opinion
-on the t rust programme by all con
cerned is desired by Mr. \'ilson, as he
thinks public hearings will facilitate
the passage of the bills.
Sumined up, the ad in in istrat ion
jprograimine on trust reform for the
present session of congress covers the
following points:
1. Supplemental legislation to the
Shorni:ltn anti-trust law. President
Wilson, nenbers of his cabinet and
milajority leaders in congress are
agreedl that the Sherman law itself
should not he altered. To (10 so, they
.old, might imeain impairing the use
futlness of the act and cast. dont Iiponh
the 'meanii. of dec'isions hitherto ren
dered on it by the colrts.
2. The prohibition of interlocking
directorates. It is intended not only
to prevenlt thce mtultiple control of
colptorations. bit1 the exercise through
"lummyiii" liret')rs of atn identity of
iitetrest by a corpoilrationl or corpo'a
i ionsi in concetins doin'; a cognate
lusiness. Iegislatiot, as well as
p0ow'er of Publicity, to be iiivested in
go ve' iineit 1ireaul is eX 1ecWted to cor
reel t hese abuses.
a. The creation of an interstate
trade comitnittee, merged with the
bureau of corporations, to furnish in
i'orimaltion to the business world and
at. the same little act as a board of
conclliation in helping corporationis to
id.ist Ihem1sv11es. It would assist
the (our ts and would hIave a. (ourt's
power of 1in(1isitioln. The President's
idea is to safeguard the (om1mitt1e, ;o
It. would have no arlbitrary powers of
regulatioil.
1. The prohibition of holditig comn
Panies. Corporations or individuals
could not under proposed legislation
he interested, through the holding of
shares or otherwise in the business of
actual or potential competitors or
concerns doing a cognate business
and the grouping of noncompetitive
corporations would be permitted only
after tie interstate trade co:nmittee
wvouldi have od etrminted that nto re
straint of trade or monopoly could

Sand Clay Roads and the Time to
Work Them.
Washington, D. C., Jan. 19.-There
are at .present about 35,000 miles of
sand clay roads in -the United States,
mainly in the S-3uthern States, ac
cording to the o!lee of Public Roads,
U. S. Department of Agriculture. The
time to work the roads is in the spring
when the soil is damp. If the working
of the roads is deferred until late in
summer when they are dry, they are
not only much more difficult to put
in proper shape but the cost of re
pair is greater than if they were work
ed early in the spring.
Previous -to 1894 comparatively lit
tie, if any of these roads existed. The
poularity of this type of road Is due
to the facts that it is cheap, compara
tively firm and durable, easy to con
struct and repair, and that the ma
terials out of which it is build are
plentiful in many sections of the
country.
The -sand-clay road is made by mix
ing the sand and clay in such a way
that the grains of sand touch each
other, the spaces between the grains
being filled with clay which acts as
a binder.
Tile ppr11loxilmate mixture of sand
and clay may be determined by filling
a vessel with a sample of the sand to
be used, and another vessel of the
same size with water. The water is
poured carefully into the sand until
it reaches the point of overflowing.
Tle ('o1umiie of water 'IemOVed froimi
the second vessel represents approxi
iimately the proportion of clay needed.
The proper proportion of sand and
clay can best be dietermined, however,
as the work progresses, as some clay
will contain more sand than others.
In fact. clays ar'e very frequently
toundi which already contain about the
r'ight. pl'olpo'tiol of sand.
If the road to be treated is sandy,
the surI'ac'e is first leveled ofT and
crOWned(l withl a road machinie. the
crown being about 1-2 inch to the foot
f'romn the center to the sides. Thie
('lay is then (moped on the surface
and carefully spread, so that it will
be trol to S inches in depth at the
.'enter, a(d graduially decreasing in
depth tow\ai'(ls the sides. A layer of
('leani s:nd is then usually added,
w hich is thoroughly imlixed with the
clay. either by tratlic or by means of
pl(1ws a nd disk or tooth harrows.
The hest results have been obtained
by thoroughly mixing or puddling the
material when wet. I"oi' this reason, it
is desirable that thei mixing he done
in wet weather. The mixing (an he
left to the trallie after the miaterials
ha1,ve been properly (l'ced, but this
involves a whole winter and spring
of had road, and even then. the mix
ing is not always satisfactory. In
all cases, it is advisabe to dress the
road withI a road machine or 5plit
log drag after the mii at erials have beenm
thoi'ou1ghly mixed, and to give it a
Crowit of not more than I inch or less
than 3-1 inch to the foot from the
center to the sides. A light. coating
of sand may then be added. The use
of the road mmachine or drag should
be ('Oiltinuede at f'requenit in termvahls uni
til the surface is smooth and1( fir'm.
IfI the r'oadl to lbe tireated le' comf
hosed of clay, It should first be br'ought
to a rough girade with a road machine.
The suriface should then be plowed
and thoroughly pulverized by harirow
lag to aL dep1th of about 4 Inches after
which it Is given a cr'own or' slop of
about 1-2 Inch to the foot from the
ceter'i to the sides. It is then cover
ed wihth 6 to 8 Inchios of clean, sharp
sand, which Is spreCad thicker In the
cen'lter thian at. thle sides. The mnateri
als should then -he mixed with plowsa
andh harr'owv while they are compara
ftively dry3, after' whIch they aire final
13ly1(( tuddld with a harr'iow durin' tg wet
we'ather. If the ('lay woi'ks to the sur'
face ai the load becomes stick, more
sand i shiomuld itle adided.
The iroad Is then shapled, criowned,
andl ditched in the usiual mannerhO'l withi
ai road machine. This should In' done
whem thle surlf ace is soft, yePt stiff
eniioughi I opiack w'elI under' thle iroller
or' the tr'afllc. WIde but shiallow ditch
es shoulid lbe prlovided on both sides
of thle r'oad, and1( cumlver'ts 01' cross
idraIlls shoul d lbe Idacedl whmeirever' wa
tel' flows aciross the r'oadi, foi' It is ex
ceinlg limportanlt that1 the "'sand~ otn
elay r1''oads lie well drlainied.
After the clay on sand, or the sand
on clay, roadl Is completed, It should
be cairefullhy maintainedl until the su r
face becomes firmi andl smooth. The
conistrulctioni of this type of r'oad Is by
1n0 means a quick operiation. If soft,
sticky places a-ppealr, mor'e sand
should be addh~ed, ando if loose, sandy
places ore found, mnore clay is needed.
It is just as Iiportanlt to attendl to
these small details as to any other'
par't of the woirk, for', ir they aire no
glected, the road is liable to fall.
'It r'equir'es aIproximately 1 cuble
yaird of clay to surface I 1-2 running
yardls of roadl 12 feet In width, or about
1175 cubic yar'ds to the mile. Fr'om

cost of the roadl wIll thlerefor'e depend

isl hnaledl the nanrnge being from $"500
to $1,000 per mile. A road built 'under
the direction of the office of Public
Roads at Gainesville, Florida one mile
long, 14 feet wide, and having 9 inches
other sand-clay road built by. the
'mile, or ten cents -per square yard. An
other sand-clap road built by the
office at Tallahassee, Florida, 16 feet
wide, 7 inches thick, cost $470 per
mile, or about five cents per square
yard.
