State have constructed of their own
ivolition and. at their own expense. In
this connection the report reads: 1.-THE
large expense entai1ed on towns to
keep their roads in repair has sug-
gested that ultimately, if we are to
have a continuous system of well built
and carefully maintained roads, some
provision will have to be made on the
part of the State to take these roads
into our own system, or provide in
some way for their care and mainte-
nance, so that an unbroken and unin-
terrupted chain of good roads may be

The automobile question is gone into
at length, and while the poor condition
of many of the highways is not blam-

fully so per cent, of the wear upon
macadam roads is caused by the auto

Under the head of Recommends
tionS," the commissioner asks first
that the appropriation for running his
department be increased so that he
may appoint deputies to assist him in
lis work. He advocates that in carry
ing out the policy of the State in i'm
proving trunk lines, that the towns
through which these trunk lines run
should be free from any charge in
connection with them, except in so far
as the law provides for one-quarter of
the expense of repairs, as many of the
smaller towns are unable to bear this
extra expense.
He also recommends that the restric-
lions limiting the amount of money to
be used by the several towns in the
State be left open question so far
as the amount of money that will be
available under the present law is con-
cerned. The Limitation under the pres
ent law is $500 a year; $500. 000 of
this amount to be appropriated direct
ly to the towns as requested by their
vote, and $250,00O for trunk lines.
The appropriation of $4,000 a. year
for repairs is considered inadequate.
and the report asks that it be in
creased to $50. 900.
Regarding the trunk lines. and the
progress made in this work the report
says:
