instructions General.

The governors instructions, 1t IS
understood, will be sufficiently gener'
al in nature to give the commissioli
free rein in its studies of the roads
problems. 1t is the governors idea
that the commission should be ready
with report on hard surfacing mater
falls that may be best and most econ
omically used in Iowa, the cost IN
Iowa Of hard surface road building, the
roads that first should be paved, and
a feasible plan for financing road i'm
provement, when the legislature meets
in 1917.
The commission will start to work
just as soon as Chairman Norris can
get It organized. There is no appro-
priatfon for It, so that its members
must spend their own money or pass
the hat to secure funds with which to
work.
