What will be the annual cost of the
repair Of State improved roads after
their completion7"
This questions was put to Governor
Crothers just before he left Baltimore
last week for yisst .Sf inspection Of
State roads already improved Of un-
dergoing Improvement on the Eastern
Shore
The exact cost has not been esti-
mated and cannot be accurately esti-
mated" said the Governor. Il am told
that a million dollars will cover the
cost OF repair Of all State improved
roads after their completion. / say all
roads because there will be more than
are now laid out or provided for BY
the $5,ooo,ooo appropriated by the Cen
eral Assembly in 1905 Upon the COM
pletion of the roads as planned and
surveyed there will be demands for
more roads, and these demands will
not cease until the State is grid-ironed
with hard smooth roads. It is not to
be assumed that one section or neigh
borhood without roads will be content
and satisfied when it sees a nearby
neighborhood supplied with roads.
The original cost Of road improve
ment far exceeds the estimates when
the bill was passed in 1908 providing
for the $s,ooo0oo loan 1t was then
thought that the average cost would
be about $1,000 per mile. Instead, the
average will be in excess of $1,000 per
mile"
HOW EXPENSE WILL BE MET.
How will this annual expenditure
OF $r,ooo, 900 for road repairs be metz
TO many persons the sum OF ST.
100000 is staggering, and it is stagger-
ing. 1t would have been far more so
few years ago, when money was not
SO plentiful. and when we did not 80
lightly speak Of such large sum as
we now do. The million dollars to be
spent each year will be small burden
on the State. The improved roads will
bring such large increase in real es-
tate valuations that the tax will seem
to be small In other words, the roads
will more than pay for themselves by
increases in assessments and by cor
responding increases in tax receipts.
That has been the experience OF other
States which years ago began the
work of road Improvement on an cx-
tensive scale
TO provide for extension of the sys-
tenn of road Improvement and subse-
quent repairs we must make up our
minds to retrench in legislative ex-
penses and other directions. We may
look forward to increases in our re-
ceipts from liquor licenses. automobile
licenses and other licenses. from our
collateral inheritance tax and from
other directions, and we may also look
forward to increases in governmental
expenses consequent upon growth in
population, in the extension of our
educational system, care of INDECENT
insane and in the broadening of the
paternal iCea OF government But we
must constantly keep in mind that to
meet increasing expenses we must cut
ont the Injuries OF our official living
and get back to the bare necessities.
II the people, however. and especially
our farmers, want good roads, and
they are certainly demanding them,
they must, Of course, be prepared to
pay for them, even though we reduce
the expenses in other directions. -
