All Motor Vehicle Fund

TRENTON, Sept. 23.-The an
nouncement made several weeks
ago through the State Highway De-
partment, that there would be no
funds available in 1922 for carrying
out the construction of the state
highways. has so aroused the inter-

pointed a special committee of five

the motoring organizations, in an en-
deavor to have the next Legislature
pass a bond bill hat was defeated at

The agriculturists believe that the
maintenance of the plans for a COM

our highways to bring them up to
their present condition is not wasted.
All available funds for highway
construction that will be derived
from the motor vehicle fund for next
year will be needed to construct the
new bridge across the Raritan river,
between the Amboys, the federal
government making it mandatory
that this work be completed next
yea This will leave nothing for the
carrying on of new highway work.
The plan proposed by the motorists
and the agriculturists call for a fifty
million dollar bond issue, part of
which will be for the reconstruction
of bridges, and the remainder for the
building of modern highways. The
coalition of interests marks the first
time in history when the farmers
and motorists have gotten together
for a common cause. and it IS be-
lieved that through their efforts that
a real plan for highway construction
and financing will be evolved.
