ALLOTMENTS ARE MADE
FOR FOREST ROADS

The North Pacific District, compris-
ing Oregon, Washington, and Alaska,
will receive S272,422 of the 1919 al
lotment of funds under section OF
the Federal Aid Road Act which pro-
vides for the use of million dollars
of Federal money year for ten years
to build roads and trails within or
partly within the National Forests,
according to District Forester Geo. H.
Cecil, Portland, who has just received
notice from Washington that the Sec
retary of Agriculture has approved
the allotments for the fiscal year end
ing June 80, 1919. Under this allot-
ment Oregon will receive $192, 1876,
Washington S92, ,565, and Alaska
$47,O61. This is about $4,000 in eX-
cess of the 1918 allotment for the
District.
Because of National Forest land
within their borders, twenty-seveh
states and the territory of Alaska
share in the benefits Of this Act. The
allotments are made On basis CT the
area of National Forest land in the
several states and the estimated val
ue of the timber and grazing resour-
ces of the Forests.
In order to take advantage OF these
allotments it is necessary for the 10.
cal authorities, either state or county,
or both, to cooperate in the various
road projects, usually on fifty-ffty
basis. The engineering work for for
est roads is done under the direction
Of District Engineer l.. l. Hewes, Of
the Office of Public Roads. who Gu
operates with the Forest Service In
its road building operations.
Secretary Houston has already ap-
proved the cooperative agreements
of seven Federal Aid Forest road
projects in the District-the Cooks
Collins road on the Columbia Nation
al Forest, the Republic-Wauconda
road on the Colville Forest, and the
Lake Quinault road on the Olympic
Forest, in Washington, and the Och
oco Canyon road on the Ochoco For
est, the Canyonville-Galesv road
on the Umpqua Forest, and two sec
tions of the Medford-Klamath Falls
road on the Crater Forest, in Oregon.
Funds to pay the Government
share in the survey and construction
of these roads have already been pro-
yided from the 1918 Federal Aid
>Road Act allotment.
