STATE ROAD HELP OLD IDEA
First Money Paid for Highway I'M
ProVement Made by Kentucky
rs Years Ago.

1t is often said that the use Of state
money for the construction of roads
is of quite recent origin, says a bulle-
tin from the American Highway asso-
citation. The New Jersey state aid
law Of 1901 is sometimes referred TO
as the first instance of such use of
state funds in this country. AS
matter Of fact, state money was spent
for such purposes more than - years
ago. Kentucky paid out over $1,000.
900 for road improvements between
1920 and 1910 under the direction OF a
state highway engineer, who drew a
salary OF $1,000 a year, very large
sum for those days.
The roads built then were "a to 80
feet wide between the bitches. The
surfaces were constructed OF broken
stone, and the bottoms were Of large
stones wedged together to make what
road builders call a telfOrd foundation
About 1850 business conditions in the
country became bad and this work
stopped When IT was resumed i'm
1908 such a long period had elapsed
since the earlier state aid work that
1908 is usually fixed as the beginning
Of state road work in Kentucky.

urcr, over House Bill 40. 6. apparent
~ won his fight. Anyway, the bone of
contention has been removed through
the action of the House Committee on
Banks and Corporations i'm tabling the
measure, which took from the Audi
tors office the power of depositing Ger
tain state funds, and transferred the
power To the office Of the State Treas
urer
This action was taken at an eXecu-
tive session following hearing on the
bill. State Treasurer Johnson was
present and presented his views to the
committee, arguing that the power of
depOSiting state funds should rest sole
ly with his office.
In support of this he cited a number
Of states where such is the law, and
gave alleged advantages that would re-
suit to the state should the policy be
followed in West Virginia.
The committee it is said, in view Of
the controversy between the two state
officers, viewed the matter as "A fam
lily row. and decided that the easiest
and best way out would be to table the
measure. 1t is not believed it will be
reSurrected in any form at the pres

Charleston. - Developments here
now make it appear as unlikely that

of the state would be undertaken.
These two subjects, it is understood,

lasted until about II o'clock, it is I'M

into thoroughly.

that it would be unwise to tamper with
the statewide primary election at this

Sentiment is understood NOT To have
