The official tone OF the assoCia
ton Ia all for the bond issue and Il
Is pointed out by those talking for
the organization that there can be
but one sound and sane route for all
good roads men to follow. Every
state and county bond issue IS but
m additional boost for federal aid.
The expression OF the people at home
Is going to be accepted as the voice OF
the people at Washington and II the
people vote for road construction II
will be but natural for the lawmak-
ers at the national capital 10 say
that the people mean for them to
vote for road construction there.
Texas Is now voting for state
system Of highways. Kansas is doing
the same and II IL now up to Okla %
homa to Join in this chorus OF uni
versal progress and make the great
anthem one magnificent volume OF
harmonious voices urging humanity
beyond the mud and chuck holes.

this bin will he offset by federal aid
which assures that every foot OF the
road huit by the first tl2, 1000 900 OF
the funds will he under direct federal
supervision Under normal condi-
lions IL IL but fair 10 presume that
the next congress will authorize fully
$1,000, 100000 for federal aid In
highway construction and II they do
we can confidently expect every dol
lar OF this bond Issue to be offset
by federal aid and every foot OF the
road constructed under federal su
pervison.
