permit counties complying with the
requirements of the acts through the
state department. Thus the interest Of
West Virginia is protected and ar,
engagements will be made whereby
the counties will be able to get their
part of the appropriation The rules
and regulations lay out a general high.
way project and will mean much to
the future development of the high,

The Federal Aid Bill authorizing
the rules and regulations, was drawn
