Washington March 30-On the eve of the vote in the house of represent atives on the repeal of American toll exemption in the Panama Canal, con- sress was completely absorbed in the controversy, verbal artillery thunder ing throughout the day in both house and senate.
 While opposing forces were clashing in oratorical flights at the capitol President Wilson took occasion to dls- cuss the all-engrossing situation with callers, expressing keen regret that what had promised to be a d1gnl- fled contest over principles had de- generated into a fight upon the admin istration. President Wilson charac- terized as "a crowning insult of number of insults in the debate, the declaration of Representative Know land of California that the admins tration had made a deal to repeal the ,oll exemption with Sir William Ter rel1, secretary to Sir Edward Grey, British Secretary for foreign affairs.

Total for each year


 In view of these sums which must be appropriated in order to maintain and renew the surface of the roads which we have constructed, it seems to me that the policy of the state must be to go very carefully about further appropriations for trunk lines.
 It is hard to realize that it will be necessary to delay construction of other trunk lines than those already built, but the fact remains that the large amounts needed for mainten- ance and renewals will make 1t un- wise, In my opinion, to provide for any further immediate trunk line con struction unless some means Is de- Vised for securing money other than by the issuance of long-term bonds.
 For Special Consideration.
 There are some other things in con- nection with the work of the high way department which I wish to call to your attention for further consider ation:
 First-Large sums of money have been spent during the past year on account of the fact that travel has developed ih such a manner as to make the surface of some roads all ready constructed oE little value These road surfaces must be renewed if the full value of the money already spent is to be retained.
 Second-The issuance of long term bonds for the construction of roads is, in my opinion, an unwise proceed ing. There is, however, some virtue in issuing bands for a part of the cost of construction of roads on ac- count of the fact that the cutting down of hills, the strengthening of lines and the installation of drainage IS permanent improvements, per haps, il would he considered good judgment to issue some form of bonds: Third-ln connection with the op- eration of state aid to towns it seems to me that this practice should l be extended in some way so that all [ general conditions of the roads all over the state might be improved.

 Governor BaIdwin's Comment.
 Governor Baldwin in acknowledge ing the receipt of the report writes as follows to Commissioner Bennett:
 Hartford Conn, March A, 1914 Sir: I have received your report of March 24th. on the general highway situation in this state and am glad of the information which it con tains.

 It also raises two serious questions, namely: First as to whether our pres ent alw for state aid ir construction ard repairing town roads should not he materially modified: and, second, whether the state automobile tax is sufficiently high. One or both of these points will l presume. he discussed in the extended report which you state that you have in contemplation.

LIMIT TO BUILDING
 OF TRUNK LINES.
State Highway Commissioner Reports
 To Gov. Baldwin

Highway Commissioner Charles J. l Bennett has submitted the follow l ing report relating to his depart | ment to Governor Baldwin in which he says:
 1 Dear Sir: I attach herewith for 1 your consideration a photograph of 1 the trunk line map of the state of Connecticut on which is shown in i heavy yellow lines the seven main i trunk lines of the state. We plan to l complete these seven lines during the present fiscal term, each completion to be effected by the finishing of about forty miles in all
 1,42o Miles in System.
 At the present time there is in round numbers 1,420 miles of highway included in the entire trunk lines sys- tenn. Of this about 900 miles have been improved in more or less per manent manner. leaving a balance of 520 miles uncompleted, Estimating the approximate cost per mile for completing this trunk line system to be S15000 the actual cost of complet- in the roads would be $7S00, 900. this estimate contemplates the use of bitiminous or cement top dressing only on part of such roads, say 150 miles, more or less.
 In addition to the cost of complet- ing these trunk line roads in the man ner suggested above there must also be provided in the future money for the ordinary maintenance of these trunk line roads and other money for reconstruction of those portions which have been cheaply constructed or have been worn out under the ex- Cessive travel which has developed during the past few years The actual cost of maintenance under the present system of trunk line roads about 900 miles in length. should be approximately S900.00O per year. Of this sum. the automobile tax provides approximately S400 000 leaving $500.- O00 per year to be provided by state appropriation for trunk line repairs
 In addition to this amount of money for repairs only there must still be provided annual sums for renewals of the roads originally Cheaply con structed. or roads which have worn out under the traffic as mentioned This sum can only be roughly esti- amounting to about $500.000 a year. to be applied over a term of eight years. At the end of this time the seven main trunk roads will be con tiniously constructed with type of road surface suitable to traffic re- quirements.
 This will make necessary appro- priations for repairs and renewals of trunk lines of $2,000, 000 each fiscal term of two years, The amount of S90O,eOO year will never be less, but will increase in proportion as the number of miles of improved road in Creases.
 In addition to the obove appropria- tions there will of necessity be ap- propriations of $500,000 per year for state aid roads, if the present method Of aiding towns in the construction or roads is carried on by the state.
 There will also be appropriations of approximately S15O,OO0 a year for repairs to state aid roads and s1OO. 900 a year for engineering and operation of the department.

gladly have given you courteous hear
ing.
Now, may she repeat a request made
to the chapters in a letter sent March
10 and IA, differing slightly in word
ing, as different sets were written, but
differing not at all in substance or
meaning; 1t was this:
will you not lay aside this mat
ter" q. e. convention), land bend all
your energies toward making the re-
union successful, and a happiness to
the hosts of loved veterans who will
gather with us for the only time, and
give them of our best? We owe that
to them, and we owe 1t to the good
name Of our state and of our organl-
zation to put from us the PERSONAL
tiesY' with which some have marred
our own gatherings, and let our visi-
tors find an harmonious and united
Florida.
"Our likes and dislikes do not inter
est them, and reflect great discredit
upon Florida. Your president has
made few requests of your during her
service to you; she will make few
more; give her the pleasure of this
wish, to see her division show in an
honorable light to our visitors"
With every good wish,
Faithfully your president, etc.
NV daughters of the Florida .divf-
sion, the convention date Is settled Tor
this year, as WEDNESDAY, DecefnpeT

any other year; that will be your de-
cision, to be made in your conven-
ton.
Your president is sincerely sorry
that she cannot please every one OF
YOU; she is very glad TO have pleased
the majority. and she thanks them
for their loyal support to her executive
board and herself.
She has given you in this, as In all
other matters. her best and most con-
scientious judgment; if some of you
think her mistaken, that is her mis-
fortune; but to such she would say.
that you must remember she Is OBJ
Iiged to discharge her responsibility
and duty to the Florida division, ac-
cording to her conscience. and not &C
cording to yours.
With cordial greetings and good
wishes to each and all, and trusting
that YOU will attend the Reunion in
large numbers, making the veterans
happy, and enjoying yourselves. be-
