terence with the state highway COM
missions He was convinced it was
hopeless to expect any appropriations
Tor Lincoln county this year unless Il
might be for a small project in the
north end. He said Lincoln county had
obtained its full apportionment of gas
tax funds in work done west of Libby
and In the north end of the county,
at Dickey lake and elsewhere. The
commission had announced its inten-
ton OF starting three projects near
kalispell this year and that it could
not be swerved from that determine
ton. Mr. Joughin remarked that pos
sibly few were aware of the fact, but
SO TAR no state highway work has been
done within 20 miles of Kalispell.
The discussion resolved itself finally
to a conviction that the only thing that
could be done now would be to petit
ton Montana senators and representa-
tives to oppose any reduction of ap-
preparations for forest highways and
to urge them to do everything pos
slble to get an early release Of said
forest highway funds SO that work
here could be started as soon as pos
slpie N the spring, THUS helping to fur
nish employment for men now out Of
work. A motion was finally adopted
empowering Attorney Herbert to draw
such resolution to be signed by the
officers and forwarded to Montana
senators and representatives.
Attention was called to recent news
item which said the usual appropria-
ton for forest highways might be cut
from s9,500,000 to S6,5OO,OO0 in line
with the need for national economy.
That would result in Montana's appro-
prlation being cut by about S280,OOO

said that result might make necessary |
a reconsideration of appropriations for
Montana 1882 forest highway projects.
1t will be remembered 100000 had
been promised for the Lib
by-IrOy project Speakers Mondnv
evening said they did not think such
would result in a complete
temporary abandonment Of the local
project but that the amount Of the ap-
