 Congress appropriated $25o,000 for the commissions use, and the propor- tion of the license moneys set aside by law for road purposes is expected to raise the total to SlOO,OOO. The law providing for road work under local authority is an important adjunct to the commissions lahors and in most eases will be carried out along lines of co- operation with the commissions plans. IL is encouraging c. note that the commission will not bc handicapped by lack of funds this year. lt k undouht- edly great advantage, al-o, thut the commission was early aware of what resources would he at it's disposal, -o that the plans for thc season could bc made In advance.
