Political Bunk"
Tends to Increase
Highway Overhead

fort 10 Being Made to Add Useless
Salaries to Administrative Pay
roll, Says Release from American
Highway Educational Bureau
Washington, d. C.-With the APP
proach of fall elections, stump
speakers of the partisan variety are
running true to political form in
making attacks upon anything and
everything that promises to gain
votes.
In this scramble to win public
favor, highway departments in not
a few states are being used as a
source of campaign material, to the
threatened detriment of highway
work, and the waste entailed by pub
lie acceptance and action upon poll
teal bunk" tends toward an in
crease rather than decrease highway
administrative costs. This is the
view expressed at the National Capt.
toll by those who are informed on
highway progress, says a dispatch
from the American Highway Edu-
cational Bureau at Washington, D.
G.
Maine is the latest case in point,
where the people are being urged to
follow political rather than en-
gneering leadership in this parti-
cular branch of public work. An
attempt is being made to establish a
full time commission, which, if sue
cessful, will mean increases from ST.
900 a year as at present to $4,000 or
$4,000, a year for each commissioner.
The campaign in this particular
case is being based upon the theory
that State highway commissions
should be dominated from economic
(although they mean politicaD con-
sideration rather than engineering
A change, therefore, is being urged
in spite of the fact that in 80 states
the system now in force in Maine
has proven to be the most practical,
that is to say, where the executive
officer of the highway department is
the chief or State highway engineer.
In five states, whose executive Off
Ger is a commissioner, this position
is held by an experienced highway
engineer. In the remaining five
states, information is lacking on this
point.
The situation in Maine. where the
highway department is teing used
for partisan political purposes, is
typical of like efforts in other states
and tends only to increase admin
istrative overhead, at the expense
Of taxpayers.
