ROAD BUILDING


Since early in 1919 there has bae,
a steady increase each month in the
Federal aid business in the Bureau
of Public Roads of the United State.
Department of Agriculture. State
in all sections of the country are FL
ing their projects and receiving al
lotments. The road building c"a il
in full swing, and it would seem
that the end is not yet. All indi-
cations points to greater records in
the months Immediately to come.
Based on complete reports from a..
of the States cash expenditures or
the rural roads and bridges of tho
United States for the calendar year
1918 amounted to $2S6,09S,193. To
this should be added the value Of
statute and convict labor, which can
not be fixed with any great degree Of
accuracy but probably amounted t.
not less than $14,000,000, thus max
ing the grand total expenditures for
the year $3O0,OO0,0O0. This total is
made up of the actual expenditures
for such items as labor, materials,
supervision and administration di-
rcctly connected with the construc-
ton. improvement, and upkeep of
public roads and bridges outside the
limits of incorporated towns and CT
ties, and does not include any item
for sinking fund payments or re-
demption and interest on road and

PRESS COMMENT
Senator Dillingham; Will Have the
Information
BARRE Times)

Senator Dillingham; of Vermont has
spent considerable share of the
time since he has been in Congress
studying the immigration question OF
the United States; and he has also
spent some time in Europe consider
ing the situation there in it's relation
to the United States, being then act
ing as the chairman of the United
States immigration commission. The
information which he has gained
through that experience will prove
of advantage to him in supporting
the measure now before Congress,
which is designed to check immigra-
ton. Senator Dillingham; will no
doubt be called upon to defend his
measure against vigorous attack, and
the fund of information at his COM
mand will be utilized to its fullest ex-
tent in meeting that attack.
