STATE NEEDS ROAD LAWS.
Members of State Highway Associa-
ton Have Meeting.

Oklahoma City, Nov. 20.-New Jaws
affecting highways and road build
ing are to be introduced at the COM
ing session of the state legislature,
according to a member Of the state
highway association, whose Officers
hold a conference in Oklahoma City
Friday.
while Oklahoma has a great deal
of road legislation, some of which Is
excellent. some radical amendments
should be made" said member OF
the association.
"The present laws makes the coun-
ty the largest territorial subdivision
and the highest unit of authority 10
he dealt with in the matter or puDlic
roads. If we desired to build a roaG
across the state every county through
which it ran would first have TO act
before anything could be done. What
we need is a state commission or de-
partment of good roads with suTfci-
ent powers to get results. Under the
present law there can be no uniform
system. The older states which have
been successful in the construction
of highways all have such commits
sions. We must have a state central
authority. as in this way only cen
we use the state convicts efficiently
and Systematically on the highways
Of the whole state. There must be
co-operation between the prison au-
tborities and the state highway COM
missioners."
A general plan of amending the
present road law was discussed at the
conference. Among those present
were Col. Sidney Suggs of Ardmore'
state highway commissioner; r. w.
Dick. warden of the penitentiary at
NcAlester: W. S. Hawkins, state
highway engineer: Clark w. Hudson
secretary; and W. r. Colt, president
Of the Oklahoma State Highway as
sociation.
Other conferences will be held De
fore the convening of the state leg
tslature.
