GREAT HIGHWAY
MOVEMENT
MOSCOW CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
HOLDS ENTHUSIASTIC sGOOD
ROADS" SESSION
Instant Action to be Brought to Head
in Great Booster Meeting Set
For December 26th

One of the most successful meetings
ever held by the Moscow Chamber of
Commerce was held today. The sub
ject of Good Roads" was given most
thorough discussion and several i'm
portant resolutions passed and sug-
gestions made.
F. C. MCGOWAN was the principal
speaker. He pointed out the necessity
for quick action on the part of Latah
county if the north and south and the
ocean-to-ocean highways are to be
brought through Moscow. Latah
county is prevented from claiming a
just share of federal appropriation for
roads, he explained, because the coun-
ty is not bonded and the appropria
ton provision makes bonding compul-
sorry if benefit is to be had from the
road appropriations. Mr.. MCGOWAN
pointed out that Latah county might
secure funds for road work either
through bonding the county to meet
luc ltuGId1 Vi ny du-
thorizing a,special one-mill levy.
Mr.. MCGOWAN read letter from the
Lewiston Chamber of Commerce in
which cooperation between Lewiston
and Moscow in the matter of securing
best interests of both places was re-
quested. The chamber of commerce
k0 sx< Mr.. MoN@
cial representative to take the mat
ter of mutual interest before the Lew
iston body tomorrow, and to use his
effort in securing effective coopera-
ton with that body.
Further, in connection with the good |
roads agitation, a meeting to be open
to the public will be held December
26, for discussion of the subject and
obtaining an expression of the people.
This meeting is to be one of the larg-
est ever held in Moscow having good |
roads as the object of consideration. |
Special instructive talks are being ar |
ranged. Data is being compiled to be |
presented to the people. and con- |
structive program Of future action
will at that time probably be adopted. !
The body went on record as opposed |
to the proposed Spokane stock show
and as inclined to give the Lewiston
livestock show its undivided support. (
A resolution was passed to that ef
o,,tJ hn fO
the chambers having taken the action.
Various county agents and members
of the University of Idaho agricultur-
al extension department addressed the
body in a preliminary division of the
meeting. Those speaking were Di-
