Der state digitaries, headed by Gov.

Cooley who preceded him in office
and to Robert G. Dunn, former state.
auditor, in his address.
'sThese two men were distinguished
by their broad vision for better roads
when it was not the popular issue
that it is today" he said. Through
their wide experience, influence and
untir.ng effort, a foundation was Ia d
for a system of roads which today is
second to none in the United States
The Dunn amendment and the conf.
dence the public had in the highway
department under Mr.. Cooley is re-
sponsible for the backing the public
gave highway legislation.
ANY degree Of success accomplish
ed today is due to the loyalty OF
members of the department staff,
faithfulness of patrolmen, hearty Co
operation by contractors and the big
measure of support given by the gen
eral public and the press"
Mr.. Babcock recalled that when he
spoke on amendment No. / at the

asked him, "When will the pavement
be completed from Big Lake tn s.
