Wilbarger County urged to back highway paving plan
A State Highway Department proposal to pay two thirds of finishing pavement to the county line in both directions on the Colorado Gulf highway and half the cost of paving the Lee highway is urged for strong consideration. It could yield about forty miles of paving by funding sixteen miles and may fit into the next bond issue without raising taxpayers' burden. The plan would advance Wilbarger County road development, especially if north Pease River routes are included, speeding overall county progress.

Farmers in Minnesota elected a Farmer Labor candidate to fill the vacancy caused by Knute Nelson's death. The result narrows the Republican Senate advantage to a nominal six, with independents and radicals likely needing terms to control Senate business. Voter sentiment suggests discontent with Harding policies and wheat prices, as the tariff promises failed to raise farm prosperity.

Davidson pardons raise questions on governor's policy
Acting Governor Davidson issued thirteen pardons shortly before Governor Neff returned from Central America. Neff has been unusually stingy with pardons since taking office, and Davidson’s move appears to bypass the governor's policy and his limited time to study applications.
