Except for few opening remarks
by president Peglow there was no
speaking at the tables, but song books
having been provided by Supt FIJI.
Livingston, there was some spirited
singing between courses that livened
the occasion and started a custom
that is likely to survive. The band,
upstairs, alternated the songs with
well rendered selections. The COM

did organization.
After the supper the crowd repair
ed to the Palm room for the solid
work of the evening. After Mr.. Peg

briefly on various topics and several
committees were selected to take
charge of some of the projects pro-

Adoption Of a plan for the improve
me1t Of Montana roads was the result
of d meeting Of 40 prominent Mont.
anans held at the state house. A COM
mittee OF IL will have charge Of the
details OF the plan. which provides for
the presentation OF an Initiative mea-
sure next year which would increase
the gasoline tax to three cents gallon.
Distribution would be IS per cent to
the highway commission fund and IS
per cent to the general fund. The
measure would provide for a division
of the motor vehicle license money be-
tween the counties and the state high
way fund.
The plan also provides that after
four years the highway fund is to re-
ceive all Of the proceeds from the

that 81, 200. 900 could be raised through
three cent gas tax by 1927 It IS
figured that It would be possible to
construct 2940 miles OF highway In a
