mean the improvement of all of the
county roads, an average of 15C
miles per county
5th. To unite with all of the
ether state good roads associations
and the National Highways associa-
ton and work hard for additional
federal appropriations for road
building.
9Th To build up an organization
of 10000 members if possible in two
years and have an association so
strong that it can secure from the
next legislature the submission of
an amendment to the constitution
permitting the state to aid in road
building to the extent of % per cent
of the cost of roads. When the
amendment is submitted in four
years. the Kansas Good Roads as
ISOLATION will have to make the cam
paign to carry it before the people.
The success of this means more to
the good roads movement of Kansas
than any other additional legisla-
ton that can be secured.
9TH. The goal of the Kansas
Good Roads Association is 5000
miles of improved roads before the
end of five years. At present Kan
sas has but a few hundred miles of
S65-day roads. yet on May 23rd, be-
fore the new laws were hardly rs
days old. there were about 117S
miles OF improved roads, (brick,
concrete, macadam, gravel. etc) be-
ing planned and in many cases pc
titions have been filed or are being
circulated for them. II this interest
can be maintained and other COM
munities aroused to the same ex-
tent there win be over more than
5000 miles built in the five year
campaign.
During the first four weeks of
the campaign Mr.. Smith addressed
fifteen meetings. with an average
Of 200 people. At nearly
every one the county commissioners
we're present. His policy at every
Abilene weekly reflector. [volume] (Abilene, Kan.) 1888-1935, 1917-06-07

meeting is to secure the united sup
port of the commissioners and roaC
boosters to some definite road build
ing project of a few miles, and ge
early action looking to the building
of section of 365-day road in every
county as soon as possible. "Built
Roads" is his slogan.
Sth. There are now about 10000
automobiles in Kansas At an
average annual cost for operating
and repairs of $3.50 per car it means
an annual outlay of $22,500,OO0 for
the yearly expense of operating
these cars. Is it unreasonable to
propose that at least 20 per cent OF
this sum be invested each year in
improved roads? An average mud
tax on these cars of SIS each year
will amount to $2.25O,000. With
5000 miles of improved roads in the
state, IS per cent of this mud tax
could be saved If every car owner
can save s11.25 per year and all of
the car owners save $1,6S1500 an
nually in Kansas, is it not big
proposition and one that deserves
the support of every car man at
least? The saving to farmers on
hauling products to market will be
many times greater than this if all
of the county roads in each county
are 365-day highways.
As a time and money saver, for
social and religious ad-
vantages. the road building propo-
sition is the biggest thing before the
Kansas people.

WHAT STATE IS PLANNING
What the Five-Year Campaign Of
BODYBUILDING Means

BY ]. Frank smith, President
and General Manager Kansas Good
Roads Association,
1st. BY a vigorous campaign OF
education convert the land owners
and taxpayers in general to the
value and advantages of 365-day
roads and induce them to build
same.
2nd. To explain the provisions OF
the new road law and show the PEG
pie how improved roads can be con
structed under its provisions and
how the cost is apportioned to the
land owners and taxpayers in the
county. The big surprise to most
people is the small tax that each
land owner and taxpayer has to
pay to secure 365-day roads

the cost of the various types OF
roads and the average expense OF
upkeep and the life of same. This is
information that every taxpayer
wants and is entitled to receive
4th. The Kansas Good Roads AS
ISOLATION is working with the state
highway commission and the fed
eral government in helping to secure
the cooperation of the people of
Kansas in building improved roads
and meeting the requirements to Sc
cure federal aid. By doing this sue
cessfully the people of Kansas will
invest approximately S13,000,000 in
365-day roads in the next five years,
which, with the federal funds. will
mean nearly $16,00O,O00 in surfac-
ed roads built with federal aid. Be
fore the end of five years there
will also be more than double that
