Since 1915, however, Estate highway
departments have been greatly expand
ed and efficient machinery has been de-
veloped which will undoubtedly be able
to handle the greater volume OF work.
The states have had four years in
which to prepare for the expenditure
Of the large funds which now become
available. They expect to be able to
handle them. What is of greater con-
Germ to them at this time ii the cOndi-
ton which may result if federal appro-
priations are permitted to lapse The
highway departments should know at
least 4 year in advance what funds are
to be available In order that plans may
be made for future construction. Tn
less, therefore, further federal action is
taken in the coming year, the states will
be left in doubt as to the future policy
.
OF the Government, and the amount Of
money they must be prepared to ex-
pend. Such a contingency would in
volve serious setback to the progress
Of road construction, and should be
avoided by early congressional action. =
