FOR HIGHWAYS

Federal aid highway contracts
let in March represent an outlay
of $52,356,000, about four times
as great as for the same month
last year, Col. Arthur Woods,
chairman of the Presidents emer-
gency committee on employment,
announced today.
In addition to the highway
contracts, there were $1,960,OOO
worth Of Federal forestry pro
jects and a considerable volume
of Federal park projects during
the month. Colonel Woods said:
"The increase in highway
construction. crea ing imme-
date opportunity for employ
ment of thousands of wOrkmen,
should contribute considerably
to the decrease of unemplOy-
ment in those States which
have taken advantage Of the
greatly augmented Federal-ald
funds this year."
