ton program. That is, isolated sec
tons Of roads were impreved-besin-
ming nowhere, ending nowhere in
many cases. Provision for connect
ing with through highways at State
boundary lines frequently was diff
cult to be made and there was no
comprehensive plan for securing a
carefully laid out system of con-
necied highways serving all the cen
tiers of population of the state. The
officials of both state and Govern
ment were quick to realize that such
a system had to be designated, not
only for each state, but for the Ma
ton, each state system being inter-
connected so as to form an immense,
compact and comprehensive Highway
system throughout the United States.
The various states were called upon
to tabulate and measure all existing
public roads and lay out a trunk
system consisting of not to exceed
To of the mileage Of all public roads.
Such systems as submitted were COM
pared and co-ordinated with the sys-
tens Of surrounding states through
interstate conferences, thus complet-
ing the first step, and each route
comprising the system vas carefully
considered from a standpoint of eff
fectually connecting traffic centers
while at the same time a%ffording the
most direct through routes from a
standpoint of interstate traffic. In
getting down to individual projects,
each n submitted vas likewise O n
sidered in its local way and in its
final location to fit in most effec-
tually as a direct route with mini
mum grades and curvature, avoiding
grade crossings or separating them
and the character of road building
material being duly considered. This
great plan for a comprehensive Ma
tion-wide highway system was sue
cessfully executed and at the pres
ent time nearly all the mileage of
the various state systems has been
approved by the Bureau OF Roads.
The carrying out of this plan has
secured very important advantages to
Wyoming as we'll as the other states.
First it sets before each state a def
inaDs task which may be calculated
for completion at some definite fix
ed date. 1t every state that
each mile OF road constructed will
eventually be connected with every
other mile, thus making each pro-
! fet 4 sure link ia a thoroughly
planned system. Traffic is thus more
or less controlled along we'll estab-
lishel routes, where continued con-
struction work and maintenance be-
comes mere and more thoroughly JUS
tilted. The construction Of alch' a
system also is without doubt an i'm
portant factor in normal snte de-
velopReF.
II is sxprsneE important for all
Wyomhg people to bear in mind that
up to the present time only 40 70
lof the Federal Aid Highway System
I'm Wyoming has been constructed
The completion OF the entire sys-
tom At the earliest possible date.
while Federal Aid and Federal OIL
Royalty funds are still available,
should - the single aim OF all our
citizens, and = comprehensive pro-
gram with this end in view should
be heartily endorsed and supported.

Dor at Q lover level OF csst than

the economies of Highway Construc-
ton and transport kas been gained,
would be lost. Indeed the loss of
Government cooperation at this stage
OF h construction program. with all
that 1t means, would be q great Ca
lamity--an irreParabke less.
Yet 1t is most necessary that the
public be fully war Of The grow
ing sentiment against }sdesal Aid
and be able thus to correctly ap-
praise the significance of such a
movement, particularly to Wyoming,
where we depend nearly entirely on
such aid. Without question It be-
hooves us to take every necessary
step to complete the highway system
in Wyoming with all possible dis
patch-in other words, set our house
in order against such a day as MAY
some time come when the strong
arm OF the Government may no long
er be extended by way of Federal Aid,
Hence the policy of building road
ways and structures designated for
the needs of the future-permanent
and lasting is indeed a wise policy
n m that must be adhered to,
whatever else may be done. Plans
for future financing Of construction
and maintenance must now be laid
which will guarantee a fair and
equitable distribution OF the cost, SC
that the work later on may continue
and expand logically and in a man
ner commensurate with our needs. II
such plans-well founded and wise.

Significance of Federal Aid in
Wyoming

"toihhAu
Such has been the history of the de-
velopment OF this great movement
throughout the coNatry. On a small
er scale, much the same thing has
been true in Wyoming, and in cur
own case here it seems well that
the facts shoald be viewed in
what greater detail in order hal the
advantages which we have secured
from Federal Aid may be fully ap-
preciated and justly appraised. No
doubt the fact most worthy OF con-
sideration is what the actual cost to
Wyoming has been of constructing
by Federal Aid approximately 1900
miles OF State Highways, of which
all but about $50 miles is surfaced
with gravel, concrete or asphalt. This
actual cost is roughly reflected in
the sums which have been appropri-
ated by the Legislatures OF 1919,
1921 and 1928, together with gaso-
line tax allowances provided by the
Legislatures of 1928 and 1925.
These sums aggregate roughly, up to
April OF this year, $1,000, 600. which
together with aid received from
counties and lesser divisions, and
private sources bring the total to APP
~proximtaely S2,500,00O. The total
expenditures of the Department from
its organization to date aggregate
very nearly s17.5OO.O 900. The diff
ference of $4,000, 900 between the
sums mentioned represents receipts
from Bond Issues, Oil Royalties and
Federal Aid. Since Bond Issues are
retired by Auto License fees, this
item cannot be regarded as a tax
item upon the people, but must be
considered as an investment on the
part OF motor vehicle owners in i'm
proved highways. Thus we arrive at
the conclusion that the Construction
and Maintenance OF the State High
