ROAD BUILDING A BIG INDUSTRY

spends dollar for dollar with tho state.
Some of the states. such as New York.
Massachusetts. Pennsylvania and Hi
nois. while taking federal aid on some
projects. Independently construct large
stretches OF highway.
This rapidly growing industry not
only will furnish stable employment
for hundreds OF thousands of men each
year. but in addition is creating
demand for young men OF technical
training
I'VE need about 1000 trained young
engineers n year in the state highway
departments and in this bureau" says
II. S. Fairbank. senior highway en-
gineer OF tho bureau. There will be
1000 properly trained young men. and
in order to Sive them the proper ad
ditional specialized srainlng and to
improve its character in the technical
schools and colleges. there was formed
in 1920 committee to develop courses
to fit engineers for road work. 1t is
gathering and giving to the technical
schools and colleges tho information
that IS acquired by the practical road
building agencies"
Results Shown by Figures
To be exact. 1880 miles OF federal
aid roads were completed during 1921.
Involving federal money to the amount
of ss4.o57,oss. and total expenditure
Of 1921 ,e6s. .6s2. These figures represent
S5e5 miles of road In projects wholly
completed and 1895 miles, the equiv
alent OF work done on projects which
are not completed.
Seventy-five hundred miles were
completed after the first of July.
These are the statistics OF federal aid
only. tho bureau says. and doubled
they will approximate the whole
amount OF new work done in the
United States during the year.
According to the bureau, there was
a grand total OF $500. 90 spent on
highway construction and repair in the
United States in 1921 by the federal
government and the states. An csti-
matc OF tho derivation OF this sum
shows that IS per cent OF the total
expenditure WAS derived from local
bonds and county. township and dis

rived from state and federal sources.

Some persons of the opinion that expenditure
of money by railroads for improvements and new
equipment is the only way business will get started
again. If the railroads buy equipment, firms man
ufactmSng that equipment employ more men. The
increased number of employees money will
be spent by these employees and the money will increase
its circulation until the farmer will be selling more of
his products and the railroads themselves will be in

School Facilities

In another portion of this mornings Chefain is
printed statement from tho board of education of
School district No. l. comprising the city schools north
Of the river The statement shows clearly the necessity
of increasing the school facilities the north side
But naturally the taxpayer wonders how much this will
cost him in additional taxes.
While definite amount of money, necessary for
increasing the school facilities has been decided upon
it is roughly estimated that 100000 will be needed and
this will be used in making additions to of the
schools and possibly erecting another school building
which may be increased in capacity the school popu.
lation grows.
The money for these improvements must be raised
by bond issue and to what this will the
payer each year. let quote from the statement issued
by the school board:
eff these bonds bear Ave and half per
cent interest and a sufficient tax levy is made
each year that at the end of 80 years the
entire issue will be redeemed, what will it cost
the tax payer each yeari
'The answer is follows One-thrtieth
Of the principal must be provided for each year,
$6,666.66. Tho average amount of interest
will be $500 or total of principal and inter
est of S12,166 each year On the basis of
assessed valuation of s21 725 .so7, this requires
. levy of Sc hundredths of a mill, in other
words only So cents every thousand dollars
Of assessed valuation
Fifty-sx cents every thousand dollars property
valuation each year is small 1t would be a
peculiar thinking taxpayer who would object TO this
amount annually to insure better educational facilities
for tho boys and girls OF this community And when
the matter is thus explained to the voters of the north
side school district, it is within TO expect that
the proposed bond issue will 60 strong when an
