To the Members.
 Arizona Good Roads Associa- tion.
 Our recent campaign for mem- bership throughout the State has resulted in the organization of 19 local good roads associa- tions cooperating with the State AssociatiO and the ad- dition of 447 individual mem bers.
 Many vital questions regard ing ways and means for secur- ing a practical econmical and efficient good roads system for this state present themselves. At a recent meeting of our Elk ecutive Committee it was decid ed to call a general good roads conference at Tucson, May 15, 1915. for the purpose of a frank consideration and discussion of these important questions in or der that a definite good roads policy might be adopted, con cured in by all sections of the State and toward the accom- pliShment of which the officers of the State Association aided by the team play of all the members might direct their at tentiOn.
 Among the important ques- tions which we believed should be considered at this conference are the following:
 1. The method of securing the greatest cooperation be- tween all counties. To this end all County engineers will be invited to be present.
