NATIONAL SYSTEM
 OF HIGHWAYS SURE
 ID BE CONSIDERED
Next Congress Certain to Take Some Action on Inter- state Road
 Building

Washington, February 26.--That tle' next Congress will seriously consider tn, proposed plan of a national system oi interstate highways is now assured Thk action was predicated by the Senatc's refusal to approve as rider" on the postoffice appropriations bill the slOC,- 100000 voted by the House without any restrictions other than now embraced ill the federal aid road act which has failed Tn various directions to satisfy many oi it's original adherenis. While the fed eral money in some states aided ma terially in acceleratfng state systems o. intercounty roads. in other states the rich counties "matched'' the dollars from the national treasury, with the result that she poor counties were still left i,i the mud.
 Though the organized motorists co-op- erated with the state highway officials in urging the federal aid road act, the two groups were not in entire accord in the recent legislative effort. Both were agreed that joint federal and state money should be expended upon roads of inter state importance. but the highway off csals refused to insist upon such pro- vision nor to support the Townsend idea of creating commission to lay out a national scheme of main roads connect ing the several states.
 What caused some oppostion in and out of Congress, to the hundred millions appropriation was the fear that it's unre- stricted adoption would fasten the fed eral aid method upon the country for an
The Birmingham age-herald., 1921-02-27

indefinite period. One member of the House didn't hesitate to say that the accord of the Senate would do exactly this thing.
 Debate upon it's merits, something not possible under Suspension of the rules,
 those who favor an interstate system and
 commission belleve that Congress will adopt comprehensive plan, for the un- dertaking has the approval of farm,
 commercial, automobile and various other organizations. Argument in favor of the appropriation centralized on the plea that 4S legislatures were in session, and that unless the federal government sup plied additional money at once the road programme in many states would be re- larded
 Information presented to the Senate in- icated that on December 3l 1920 only il7,000000 of federal aid money remained Ballotted, but that by July next this amount would be entirely covered by the states. Those opposing dwelt upon the fact that of the $275 5,0o0.0O0 total, ,early $220 900 still remained in the nited States treasury November D, 1920. The facts also disclosed that only 3l7, 100000 had been paid out, although other contracts had been completed and not paid for.
 Many senators took the stand that ;.s eng as the bulk of the money still re- T aimed in the treasury, the road DulluniB programme of the country would not be seriously interfered with by delaying
 t nsideration of good roads until the 9ext Congress convenes.
 Commenting upon the situation, Chair man George c. Diehl of the American Automobile association good roads board lhus summarizes the matter:
 Apparently instead of the states wait
 ing to see what Congress is going to do,
 Congress now proposes to wait and see
 what the states are going to do, espe-
 cally the r states which are depending
 largely upon their counties to raise the
 money to enable them to cooperate with tine federal government in building roads.
 It is high time that these states which
 have failed to function as states should
 wipe out their paper highway depart
 ments and provide some real money witl:
 which to build real roads, utilizing ad-
 vantageously whatever aid may come
 from the federal government, either in
 the form of entire cost and subsequent
 maintenance of interstate highways or
 an amplifying of the present half and half arrangement.
