Federal Road Aid

Hon Jonathan Bourne, chairman joint
committee on federal aid III ccnstrnc-
ton of post roads, Washington. D. c.
Answer to Question 1.-The federal
government should make liberal appro-
priations in aid of permanent public
roads, because such appropriations
fairly and judiciously. used would help
the good roads movement in many
ways especially in communities that
are educated up to the importance Of
good roads, and who have shown by
their work that they can help them
selves. l think Iowa is prepared TO
make the right use of federal aid for
permanent good roads
Answer to Question IF the states
would cooperate with the federal gov
eminent upon a reasonably systematic
plan for the construction of perma-
nent system OF roads in each state
along the lire that the Good Roads
Association OF Iowa has suggested for
this state 1 believe that the govern
ment should appropriate literally in aid
of such system, or systems. ! under

ton OF all county seats by north and

That each county should have one

Messenger continues. There would be
no excuse for begging and nobody
would feel called upon to listen to the
whines or growls.'
