new features. Administration OF

ulation that no State shall receive
less than one-half OF 1 per cent OF

amounts to sss5.e25. This stipu-

There is considerable change. how.

will be known as interstate high
ways and the other as inter-county
highways. The interstate highways
must not exceed three-sevenths OF

more than 60 per cent. OF the States
