of gocd roads. Millions of dollars
annually are spent for the deepen

national funds mieht he distributed

government give definite amount
of money for road construction to
each state provided they put up an
equal amount. The state then might
lapportion il to the several counties
provided they put M as much more
or twice as much more. The coun'
jty could then distribute this fund L
