MORE MONEY FOR DIRT ROADS
With the Passage of Bonds the State
Can Be More Liberal to Aid
the Townships.

When the State is relieved of the
expenditures now made for the
Sproul roads it will be in a DO.
sition to extend more liberal
aid to the townships in the
maintenance of the local roads. The
Jones law now in force provides that
the State shall pay to townships an
amount equal to so per cent of their
levy for road taxes up to $25 per
mile, but the appropriation by the
last Legislature as cut down by the
Governor equals but $l.75 per mile
and makes of this law farce. With
the loan in force the Good Roads ad.
vocases of the State will at once turn
their attention to securing from each
Legislature the full 80 per cent or $25
per mile for townships. This will not
only have the effect of at once reduc.
ing road taxes in every township in
the State, but 1t will insure to each
township good local roads leading TO
the main State roads and in fact
everywhere throughout the township.
Real estate pays no State tax, so no
cost of the loan and no part OF the
cost OF these appropriations to town
ships will fall on the real estate
owner; but they will actually reduce
his road taxes, increase the value of
his land make it easier to secure and
keep competent help and make life
easier and happier for his wife, hi.

ADMINISTRATION OF HIGHWAY
FUND IN PEOPLES HANDS

The State Grange officials who op-
pose the state loan for good roads
fer the present administration fear
that new administration will not
properly handle the HighYay Depart
ment. For years the Grange has been
a strong advocate for the initiative,
referendum and recall as the great
cure for all political evils. In as
much as the people next year elect
new Governor who appoints new
Highway Department, also a new
House of Representatives and half
the Senate, the State Grange officials
must explain why they think the
voters of the State are incompetent
to do this. If they are not competent
now when does the Grange think
they will be competent to exercise
the initiative, referendum and recall?
