$50 WILL BE SPENT
PER CAR ON ROADS
Bridge and Highway Work Is
Pushed to Offset Business
Depression.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Nation will spend for highway
construction this year an estimated
average of nearly $50 for every motor
car registered.
Pushed ahead to Offset business de-
preston. road building was estimated
today by one of President Hoover's fact
finding committees to be on its way to a
record expenditure of 1850, 000,o 900.
This figure, equal to the estimated
losses suffered by all neutrals during
the World War, marks an increase Of
more than $250,000,000 over the 1929
outlay.
1t was arrived at in survey begun
last July by the Committee on Recent
Economic Changes of the Presidents
Conference on Unemployment, in APP
praising public construction as a fac
tor in business stability.
Including expenditures for roads and
bridges constructed by Federal, State,
municipal and local governments, 1t was
estimated that highway construction is
likely to show the largest increase
among the many projects, pushed for
ward to halt depression, when final
records for the year are available.
The main sources of State and local
highway and bridge work were found
to lie in gasoline taxes and in motor
vehicle fees.
