Special to Times Republican.
Tama, Nov. 16.-The Tama county
board Of supervisors took long stride
in advance this week when they passed
unanimously resolution asking to have
the federal and state aid fund Of $685.
900 spent on, the Improvement Of the
Lincoln Highway In Tama county. The
state highway commission and the
supervisors have been considering this
matter for some time and have decided
to Apply this money on the following
project: Beginning at the west Tama
county line, just east Of LeGrand, the
road will be put to a permanent earth
grade thru to the corner one and half
miles west of the Iowa river bridge, in
the Indian reservation. At that corner
a concrete road nine feet wide will ex-
tend thru the reservation to the Z. &
n. w. railway crossing. except FOR q
short gap at each end of the bridge,
pending the probable Strengthening OF
this bridge in the near future. From
the crossing Of the c. & n. W. the road
is now nearly at grade and Will be
paved to meet the paving in the city OF
Tama as soon as this can be brought
about.
The supervisors also adopted reso-
luton determining the official inter-
county road system which consists OF
the Lincoln Highway, east to west;
the Lacrosse Tama- Kansas City Trail
north and south. and the Traer-Dysart-
Vinton road. Since the Lincoln High
way will receive this federal and state
money it will automatically release
several thousand of dollars in ROAD
taxes to be used on these other main
arteries of traffic. In this way all parts
Of the county will be benefited.
