est levels attained In the history Of
the country. In 1917, competent labor
could be secured for from $1.50 to -

In 1920 were from So to So for a short.

In proportion to this demand there
was also pronounced scarcity Of con~
struction materials. Sand. gravels
stone, and cement, and materials corli-
monty used In road work increased In
price between 1917 and 1920 from 90
to 100 per cent. Naturally, these In
creases In cost were reflected In the
prices paid to contractors for road
work Gravel roads increased FROM
$4,535 to $3.50 per mile; concrete
from $21 ,165 to upward Of $4,000 per
mile, and brick roads from S33, 600 To
$4,000 per mile.
AS funds available for road con-
struction are largely limited by stat
ute, or by the returns from taxation,
a majority of the states this year have
deliberately withheld work, the plans
for which had been completed, untii
they could obtain greater return for
their expenditure.
