FOR SETTER ''''s ::: :: :

At present Colorado's state road
fund. l. e., the money which the
state has to aid the counties in con-
structing. improving ana maintain
ing state roads is derived from the
Internal Improvement funds and from
fifty per cent OF the license fees col
lected from automobiles. This fund
amounts to about $l75.0O0 annual
ly, Divide this among sixty-two
counties and the amount for each is
very little. II is not enough to con-
tinue the road work as now mapped
out by the State Highway Commits
sion.
The proposed bill will, II carried,
bring about 100000 annually into
the state road fund. or this amount
the City and County of Denver. which
now does not pay cent into the state
road fund, will pay about $500. 900.
With such a fund as this, II is not
only possible to grade and put In
shape. every mile of state highway.
but also to eliminate every prohibi-
, tive grade In the entire system with
in three or four years.
A resolution adopted by the State
Highway Commission pledges that
body to system OF expending these
funds which practically guarantees
to each county the expenditure with
in its borders on state roads OF all
monies raised In this manner. Dem
ver's share cannot be spent within
the limits OF that city. and this money
together with the regular income will
be divided as further aid TO the coun-
ties OF the state.
The bill is endorsed by the Coun-
ty Commissioners Association of
state. and the Colorado Good Roads
Association.
