Babcock Bring Promise Of So,
100000 Federal Highway
Aid for lNinter.
MEANS JOBS FOR MANY
Announcement OF Minnesota Highway
Commission, Back From Washing
ton Conference, insures Much
Relief for Unemployed.

St. Paul-The first direct result in
Minnesota of President Harding's un'
employment conference is to be the
early appropriation Of more than
$2,0O0,00O in federal aid for winter
road work. -,..,H
Charles NJ. Babcock, state highway
commissioner, announced that the
money probably will be available
within 10 days. and that the state is in
q position to apply an equal amount,
Or to meet any federal aid which may
be voted.
Babcock Sees conferees.
The statement was made on Mr..
Babcock's return from Washington,
where he served on the Harding unem-
ployment conference, winning its in
iorsement for the more work-better
roads" proposal. and then with other
representatives OF the America AssO-
citation of State Highway Officials
presented the plan and recommends
tions to the Congressional conference
committee on highway legislation.
John H. Mullen, assistant commits
sioner and chief engineer, who is sec
retary of the national association, was
active in the movement at Washington
and returned with Commissioner Bah
cock.
Many Jobs Provided.
"The Minnesota highway depart
snent probably will have available
about October Is more than $2,O00,000
and perhaps as much as $2,S4O,000 of
federal aid to, be applied with like
amount of state funds on the 1921
highway development program" said
Commissioner Babcock. THAT will
mean the continuance of state trunk
highwater work on large scale
through the winter and much relief for
the unemployed.
"Action at Washington means fur
ther that Minnesota will receive near
ly $5,0OO,000 and perhaps $5,6S0,000 OF
federal aid for 1921 and 1922, instead
of merely $2,100,000 as recently pro
posed, unless present signs fail.
After President Harding's unemploy.
ment council endorsed the more
work-better roads" plan as presented
by Commissioner Babcock, it's commit
tee, with those of the national organ
ization of highway officials, took it ur
with the Senate and House conferees
on highway legislation and urged the
Increased. appropriation. Commits
sioner Babcock remained in Washing
ton until assured that prompt and
favorable action will be taken. He said
it was expected that a new highway
aid bill is to be introduced early this
week to make: sis 900 900 available, i'm
nediately upon nactment, or about
October Is, ape providing sum moi
less than s175;Q0ooo0. and perhaps as
great as $500 900 for the biennium
:.,.: Many cantracts Possible. ;.
=. "This appropriation will enable the
State department. to let many con
tracts late this ~ ::snlonth' ;. and carry or
much other. raald yasfalldl work this winter
Until definite, action ei!i a. is is. taken, however
ut will be difficult to give any estimate
on proposed work. but the department
- will push plans and attempt to be ir
readiness for: action when the funds
are available.'.
