The following communication from Wis
consin Highway Commission We're read:
WISCONSIN HIGHWAY COMMISSION
Madison, October 81 1919
Mr.. Ole J. Hohle
Ellsworth, Wis.
Dear Sir:
In accordance with the provisions of Sec
ton 1914 of the Wisconsin Statutes you are
hereby notified that Pierce County is
allotted from the joint federal and state
funds available for the state trunk high
way construction in Wisconsin in the
fiscal year commencing July /, 1919. the
sum of $133, 1876. This amount completes
the allotment of joint federal and state
funds under the present Federal Aid laws
of the United States.
The joint fund available $11 454, 623 80 is
allotted to the several counties, third on
the basis of area; one-third on the basis
Of public highway mileage; one ird on
the basis of valuation. The area of said
county is 1.049089 percent of the total area
of Wisconsin; the mileage of public high
ways is 1.596447 percent of the total mile
age; and the aluation is v850265 per cent of
the total valuation: therefore said county
will receive 1.165267 percent of the above
fund or $133 1864.
On November 1, 1917 there was allotted
to the several counties the sum of $T70
1862 which we have found since to be
S2,376.0l in excess of the actual final all0t-
ment to the State of Wisconsin. On
November 1, 1913 there was allotted $50,
27628 which ST 097-67 in excess of the
actual final allotment to the State of Wis.
consin 1t has, therefore. been necessary
to make reverse allotment of these two
excess amounts and the allotment for your
county has accordingly been corrected.
This leaves the net amount available to
your county this allotment equal TO
1913 1866. These over allotments were
caused by insufficient notices from the Fed
eral Department and were, therefore no
fault of the Wisconsin Highway Commits
sion.
The amount allotted to your county for
construction in 1920 may very from the sum
herein allotted and in several cases there
will be no construction in a county in 1926
under the State Trunk Highway Law. The
allotment for construction determined upon
your county is covered by a second letter OF
even date. Some counties herein notified of
funds available have already received their
full portion of federal and state aid until
July /, 1921. This letter is simply legal
notice of funds available under the federal
and state trunk highway enactments for
the fiscal year, and bears no relation to.
the contemplated expenditures in said year.
Yours very sincerely,
WISCONSIN HIGHWAY COMMISSION
