raigned against the other as under the
present system.
1.-THE state road department, under
this program, will be relieved of that
responsibility that they now have of
deciding which community throughout
the state shall receive the allotments.
The plan proposed is a definite, fixed
program which cannot be mistaken
and which will secure a result in every
part OF the state, moving forward with
definite program at the same time.
"Under the present system, for which
the state road department is not re-
sponsible, the state road department
cannot carry on program without
necessarily building up one commun-
ity at the expense of another, and as
consequence the whole state of Flor
ida is dissatisfied and demand a fixed
and definite program that will secure
result. The plan offered will do
that, and Esca mbia and Santa Rosa
counties through their committee ask
the cooperation of all that are inter-
ested throughout the state''
The joint commission also adopted q
motion recommending that the county
commissioners direct the county engi-
neer to make survey for the Gulf

along the shore bluff Of the grand la

two or three miles along the lagoon.
Another resolution recommended
that the county commissioners direct

Beach highway, including all types
suggested by the special committee
sent to South Florida, and that the
board then proceeded to advertise for
