STATE ROAD SYSTEM IS
!. PLAN Of HIGHWAY BOARD
Get Together Luncheon Productive of Much
Encouragement for Western Slope.

Toastmaster pro tenn E. S Sher-
man OF Palisade then called Oh
Thomas j. Tully another member of
the commission, who is well known
throughout the state as ''live wire
on state matters. He prefaced his re-
marks with humorous references to
the trials and fluctuations of the COM
mission on their tour over here. He
stated that the state law of Colorado
under which the board is acting was
drafted along the lines of the Con-
nectiCut statutes. The measure pro-
vides that the state may set apart
Tor road purposes one dollar for every
two dollars spent by the county COM
missioners. The last legislature APP
propriated $4,000 as starter for
the road proposition. Maintenance,
he said, should have twice as much
money awarded as construction.
The first thing for the county to do
in order to get money from the state
was to file its maps. This Mesa coun-
ty has done. The next thing is to ask
for the money. Many counties have
not yet complied with the map pro-
vision and so cannot share in the
fund at present. He warmly advo-
Gated the using of convict labor on
the roads, as it would cost but go
cents per man per day to utilize them.
He explained the effect of the states
prison credit system as an incentive
to prevent the convicts from escap-
ing. Out of $50 used on road work
so far. but tried to escape. OF this
number 2 were shot and killed dur
ing recapture and the other 2 are
still at large.
AT the close of Mr.. Tully's inter
esting remarks short addresses were
made by j. E. Maloney. secretary of
the board; John d. Secor. chairman
of the Mesa County commissioners:
John ID. Reeder, mayor of Palisade;
A. j. belong of Clifton: S. c. Skin
ner of Plateau City: l. y. Bunting:
Henry r. Rhone, and w. S. Wallace.
Taken in its entirety, there is no
question but that this section Of the
state will profit largely from the visit
of the state board, and that we will
soon see change come over the road
landscape on this side of the range.
The Mesa County Business Asso-
citation is to be congratulated on its
success in getting the highway COM
mission so deeply interested in the
western slope, and the success of their
visit over here is largely due to the
efforts of the association and its ac-
tive secretary Mr.. Louis Meyer.
