As an eXtenuation of seeming iLdif-
ference on their part, | desire to re-
mind you that in the preparation of
a good roads bill, adequate to the ne
cessities of the people of Florida,
there are intricacies to be overcome.
which can only be done by a practical
knowledge Of the construction of good
roads. AS the members Of the Florida
legislature are not practical road
builders, and as perhaps the members
Of that body who are most influential
in the passage of bills know least
about their construction, I recommend
that through our legislative and good
roads committees that they at Cnce
devise plans, and adopt means to Sc
cure the preparation of a good roads
bill TO be enacted into law by the next
ensuing legislature of Florida, and
that a suitable committee of experts
be secured to present that bill for pas
sage, and go before the proper COM
mitteeS of the legislature and explain
its merits. As the efforts of that
committee will be for the benefit of
the people at large of the state, fur
Their recommend that you memorial
ize the legislature to pass a law pro-
viding for the payment Of that COM
mittee's actual expenses and make an
appropriation therefor"
In accordance with the spirit of
the first named recommendation, af-
ter comforting with me, our state or
ganizer. the Hon. A. S. Mann, called
meeting of the County Commission
ers and Good Roads Association to
meet in Jacksonville, Fla, several
months ago to prepare a good roads
bill adequate to the necessities of the
