BIG GOOD ROAD PROGRAM PROMISED FOR
IDAHO DURING THE COMING TWO YEARS
Comprehensive Summary Of Action Taken By Legislature
Combined With Federal Aid Given By A. L. Kahl
Office Engineer OF Highway Department.

every citizen of Idaho is, or should be,
interested. This project is the con-
struction of the north and south high
way between New Meadows and
Whitebird. We have already sent in
an application for federal aid nthis
project to the United States bureau
of public roads. This project state
ment calls for an expenditure of $780,
600 on 800 miles of the line between
the two points named above. 1t is
81 miles from New Meadows to
Whitebird, but we do not have enough
money available to construct the en-
tire 81 miles at the present time. With
this $650,000 we propose to construct
the highway over the sections where
the present road is very bad and dan
gerous. Naturally this means that we
are picking out the most expensive
work to do at this time. The average
cost of this 30.5 miles is over 100000
per mile, Just for the grading and
drainage structures alone. Included
in this 30.5 miles is about three miles
of work that will cost approximately
$4,000 per mile for the grading. We
have all heard about the wonderful
Columbia River highway and the cost
OF constructing the same. For diff
cult construction and cost, as far as
the grading work goes, the north and
south highway has the Columbia River
highway beat. The construction of
the road between New Meadows and
Whtebird Is by far the greatest I'M
dertaking, in the line of highway work,
that has been done in the northwest.
Also after the entire 81 miles of this
line is constructed it will rival Ore
CONS famous highway for scenery.
TO REMOVE BARRIER.
When this 3o.5 miles of the north
and south highway are completed and
the % miles between Whitebird and
Grangeville. which is now under con-
struction, Is opened to traffic the
backbone of the great barrier be-
tween the two ends of Idaho will
have been broken. There will still
be q good many miles of this highway
to be constructed, and some of it
needs 1t quite badly, but 1t will be
possible to ride from Boise to Lewis
ton without having to purchase an
entire new set of tires for your car
when you reach there, which is almost
the case over the present road. Also
it will be the cause Of eliminating a
great many automobile accidents each
year along the Salmon river.
4 Another section of the north and
south highway which we hope to get
under construction the coming sea-
son Is 10 miles of the line in Adams
county between Council and New
Meadows. The present road over this
route climbs over and down a large,

IMPORTANT LINKS


IMPORTANT LINKS
Another important link in the state
highway system which is to receive
early attention by this department is
the highway between Mountain Home
and Bliss; this road is in the Noun
tain Home and Glenns Ferry highway
districts for approximately so miles,
and no attempt has ever been made
to construct good road through that
section of the country This is the
worst section Of the Idaho Pacific
State highway between the Utah line
in Bear Lake county and the Oregon
line near Weiser The Glenns Ferry
highway district voted bonds last year
in the sum- of 100000 for the express
purpose of constructing this road and
had the capital issues committee al
lowed them to sell their bonds this
work would no doubt have been start
ed before this. The Mountain Home
highway district recently voted $780,
900 worth of bonds to aid in the build
ing of this same road in their district.
There are two other sections of the
1daho-Pacific highway which every
tourist curses when he hits them. One
of these is the % miles of road be-
tween Pocatello and American Falls,
and 1t is hoped that some arrange
ments can be made soon whereby this
section can be constructed. The other
is the point where this highway
crosses the Snake river near Hager-
man. The present means of making
this crossing is by ferry which,
quite frequently, causes considerable
delay Our present plans call for the
construction Of a bridge at this point
which will cost approximately $4,000.
The state already has sent in an ap-
plication for federal aid on this bridge
and as soon as possible bids will be
called for on this structure.

The Fifteenth session of the Idaho
legislature was very generous with the
state highway department, a compre-
hensive summary of the good road
program for this state during the next
two years, drafted by A. l.. Kahl, Of
flee engineer of the state highway de-
partment, shows.
The legislature made the following
appropriations for the highway de-
partment: A 2-mill tax levy which
will bring in to the highway depart
ment approximately $1,850,O00 in the
next biennium. A 100000 bond issue
which will also be available for use
during the next two years. They also
passed a bill, which will be voted
upon by the people at the general
election in 1920, authorizing the sale
of state highway bonds in the amount
of 100000 for the use of the high
way department during the years 1921
and 1922. Also during the years 1921
and 1922 the 2-mill tax levy will prob
ably raise two more million dollars
for highway work, unless the next
session of tie state legislature re-
peals the two mill tax levy law.
FEDERAL FUND AVAILABLE.
Al the present tlIlle the state OIL
Idaho has available from the federal
government approximately 100000.
After July 1 this year we will have
$1,142,000 more available from the
government and after July 1, 1920,
there will be approximately s1,202, 200
more available from the United States
government. These sums were appro-
priated by congress in the federal aid
road act in 1916 and also by the post
office appropriation bill which only
recently passed congress. This money
is for use on roads that are or which
are Xix ely to be United States mail
routes, although sections of roads 10
miles or less in length which connect
with mail routes may be improved
under this law. Also. in accordance
with a law passed by the Idaho legis-
lature in 1917, this money can be used
only on state highways.
In addition to the above sums of
money that are or will be available
Idaho will have approximately 1864,
900 to be used on roads within or ad-
jacent to national forest reserves dur
ing the years 1880.
This makes total amount of money
available from the state and federal
government for highway work in Ida
no during the next two years of $4,-
$4,000. In addition to this the vari-
Gus counties of the state will con-
tribute probably 100000 more for
state highways. This means that the
state highway department will be a
very busy department during the next
biennium.

The reason is that clique of depart

leon keeper who would pay them graft.
Four of the five were arrested yes

held by Judge Learned Hand on a

In addition to these men, specifically
