jubilation that the greatest war in
history is at last ended.
Lord Curzon, Sir Alfred Mond and
Edward Shortt compose the commit
tee appointed by the government to
supervise the peace program. The
first official step of the committee
was the setting aside of August 3. 4
and 5 for the national celebration.
Meanwhile details of the celebration
are being outlined. Suggestions for
the merrymaking have been solicited
by the committee. and from nearly
every town and village in the king
dom answers have been received.
Everything from parades to church
services have been suggested, and
hundreds of ideas for the festival are
checked daily.
Perhaps the most impressive of all
the ceremonial display will be the
Thames pageant, staged under the
direction of the League of Arts for

Sir Frank Benson is chairman. This
will be a welcome on the Thames for

IDAHO MEN DEMAND
REIMBURSEMENT Of

w. J. Hall and d. P. Olson OBJ
tain National Support on
Plan Affecting 50 Per Gent
States Area.

Through the efforts of w. J. Hall.
Idaho public works commissioner, and
Engineer Gillette Of New Mexico.
backed by all the western states, a
resolution was adopted at the recent
meeting of the American Association of
State Highway Officials at Louisville,
KY, which will bring to bear on con-
gress pressure to obtain a new and
easier basis under which states with
large areas of public lands will cooper
ate with the federal government in
building roads through the public
lands.
AS the startling total of 62 per cent
of Idaho lands are held BIZ the federal
government this reimbursement, should
congress heed the combined demands
of highway officials OF the country.
will mean a great forward movement
In the construction Of highways into
districts now without transportation
communication.
EFFECT OF PLAN.
The resolution which would bring
this readjustment about asks congress
to relieve the public land states by in
creasing the amount of federal aid al
lotted them so that the state may CO.
operate on building roads for only so
per cent of the federal lands instead
2of on all of the lands as now provided.
In Idaho this would mean so per cent
OF G2 per cent, which is 81 per cent of
the lands In the state. Idaho would
cooperate with the federal govern
ment, therefore, on 81 per cent of the
cost of particular piece of road
through public lands, ranging from 81
per cent as a minimum up to so per
cent as a maximum.
Another resolution OF Importance.
which will hasten the completion of
main highway systems provides that
federal aid in a county shall not be
extended on branch roads until the
main highways are completed. A COM
panion resolution provides that adj
tacent states must connect at their
highways and at their borders, the OBJ
ject being to provide a through trans
continental highway system, north and
south. east and west.
BETTER STANDARDS.
Colonel d. p. Olson, Idaho state
highway director, who also attended
the louisville meeting and took an i'm
portant part in its proceedings, spon-
sored resolution recommending that
congress appropriate separate and adj
ditional post road aid funds for roads
on federal lands and lands adjacent.
and recommending that standards be
raised for forest roads which are part
OF the main state highway systems.
Opposition from the east prevented
the putting through of a resolution to
change the basis of federal aid appor-
tionment so that the west would get a
more equitable distribution of the
funds based on areas instead of on
population and areas and present mile
age.
