ROAD LEGISLATION TO Be ENACTED.

In connection with the ratiiica-
fion Of the S50,O00,0O0 road bond
issue amendment by Il majority in
excess of 100000 a, the general
election Oh November =. The ncccs-
sary legislation will be enacted at
The coming session of the Lcgisla-
turc, which convcncs on january
r.. 10 provide for the issuance of
:, portion of the amount authorized
and for the beginning of road con-
Htruction work early in the spring
of 1921, If arrangements can be
perfected by that time. However,
il is doubtful if legislation will be
finally enacted before March or
April. owing TO another change in
The West Virginia constitution,
which limits the Legislature during
the first fifteen days Of its session
to the introduction of bills, the
new constitutional amendment pro-
viding that no bills so introduced
shall be acted upon until after
The Wednesday following the Sec
ond Monday of March, when the
Legislature reaSscmbleS.
One Of The first steps III formu-
lating legislation to make the new
amendment effective will be the
appointment of a joint Legislative
committee by the Governor to
draft legislation covering the is
suancc Of bonds. The new system
authorized by the ratification of
the constitutional amendment puts
the control of construction of the
state highways under the State
Road Commission instead of under
the county courts, as was the case
heretofore. The road system of
West Virginia will connect virtu-
ally every county seat in West Vir-
ginia.
II is not probable, according to
The best information obtainable,
thai more than $3,000.00U or S1O,-
DO0,OOO in road bonds will be is
sued at first as it is believed that
some time will be required to con-
>truct the permanent roads from
the proceeds of even that large an
