COMMISSION SHOWS WHAT CAN
BE DONE IN FIVE YEARS

TWO TRUNK LINES LAID OUT
one to Contain 2,2Ss Miles and the
other 4,sts Miies--Sum Of S5,g7S,-
24s Will Come From Wash

Madison The most comprehensive
system of trunk line highways ever
dreamed of in Wisconsin has been laid
out by the state highway commission.
and the plan has been submitted TO
the members OF the legislature now
studying this problem.
Two trunk line systems have been
laid out, one to contain 2.23S miles and
the other 1919 miles All of the state
will be covered, the roads connecting
the sections most thickly populated,
and attention being paid to the pre-
ponderance OF traffic.
The interesting feature of this work
now is the division of the money con
tributed by the national government
by counties.
In five years. If the state meets the
requirements of the national govern.
ment, the sum of $5,776,24S will be re-
ceived from Washington. An equal
amount contributed by the state would
mean that $10,OO0,O00 would be ex-
pended in Wisconsin in its system OF
trunk line roads in five years.

Continuing his opposition to Presi-

yiding: THAT ii shall be unlawful, at
a time when the United States is not
at war, for any merchant vessel of

depart from port of the United
States or any of its territories or pos
sessions for port of any other coun-

sons to any project of conveying Amer
lean merchantmen. favors furnishing
such ships with guns for their own
defense In as much as the govern
ment has recognized that naval stores
are the only supply of naval guns, it
has been held that obtaining guns
from that source does not alter the
private or commercial character of a
ship.
The enforced idleness OF the Amer
ican merchant feet is viewed with
growing disquiet, and the general view
here is that not only the export trade
but the nations standing before the
world demands that American vessels
continue TO ply the high seas without
regard to the German proclamation.
