Gov. Ford Approves
Plan To Rebuild
Montana Highways

Montana Highways
Taking for his text the urgent
necessity for preparing now to
take advantage of Federal aid
for the rebuilding of Montana 8
highways at the close of the war,
Governor Sam C. Ford has de-
clared his approval OF the move
ment to initiate a measure to be
voted upon at the 1914 election.
1T is m y BELIEF. said the
Governor, that the people of
Montana are overwhelmingly in
favor of the simple proposition
that we should as best we can
maintain our highways under the
stress of war conditions and re-
build and expand them when the
war is over. To maintain them
now. despite the greatly shrunk-
en- revenues available. is urgent
" necessary. To rebuild and ex-
pand them as soon as the post
war period begins will be impera-
tive to our welfare. The road
construction program that Mon
tana should then be ready to put
into quick effect will be one way
to meet the challenge this State
must face when the men who
are now fighting for US return
home in need of jobs.
Conscious of conditions that
must be met when the war ends
and the threat of colossal unerfl-
ployment will hang over the
country. Congress has made pro.
visions o n more liberal terms
than ever before the ALLEGATION of
Federal funds to the States for
highway construction. S tat e 8
prepared to accept these funds
will benefit immensely and i'm.
mediately. States that fail o
set up the machinery until after
the war can expect to share but
little.
This was what was in the
minds of the persons and organ
izations sponsoring the highway
debenture referedum in thi 8
year's Legislative Assembly. The
measure, designed t o make i t
possible for Montana to avail it.
self of Federal postwar road
funds, was carried to the Sup
rene Court by its friends so that
its conformity to constitutional
requirements might be deter
mined. The court held that the
debenture PROPOSE, as drafted.
could not be submitted to the
electors.
"OnIy through approval by the
people at the polls can Montana
have funds to match Federal
highway aid in anticipation of
the end Of the war. In less ur-
gent times we might we'll wait
until the next Legislature could
resubmit this program to t h e
voters. But it is so tremendous
ly important that we launch our
highway regeneration a h e
earliest possible moment that |
feel we should not wait until the
1945 Legislature can act, but let
the proposition be passed on at
the next general election.
II believe that the movement.
now in the making, to initiate
this measure at the general in
1914 merits commentator and
will have the support of those
who appreciate the need of Mon
tana's being ready to meet the
postwar crisis
