ROSEBURG NEWS-REVIEW, JUNE 30, 1922.
BIG PROGRAM OUTLINED FOR J922.
Official figures o.i bond issues proposed, voted and sold fr
roads and streets compiled by the Asphalt association for May,
1922, show that with the summer construction season now in full
swing, the states, counties, parishes, townships, road districts,
. cities and towns of the country are preparing a big late-summer
land fall program of construction. The reports show that Dona
: issues proposed for future road and street construction jncreas-
;. ed $18,821,750 in May over those reported in Aprij. Among the
' localities reported interested in highway development during May
-was Douglas county with a bond issue of $500,000 for county road
improvement reported as sold.
In May a total of $30,673,000 was reported in bond issues
proposed for road improvement The total for April was $13,-
751,000. Bond issues voted for road3 in May amounted to $35,-
224,460, while those voted in April were $50,815,518 a decrease
" lor May of $15,591,058. T he total value of road bonds reported
sold for May amounted to $32,135,936 a decrease of $1,236,221
over the sales in April. This is due to the fact that a majority of
the bond elections are held in the early spring or the late fall.
That street construction fared relatively better than road
building in May, is indicated by the fact that proposed bond is
sues reported for that purpose amounted to $8,720,300 in May
un increase of $1,902,750 over the $6,817,550 reported the month
before, and bonds voted amounted to $10,119,582 an increase,
over the $8,036,132 reported in April, of $2,083,450. Bonds ac
tually sold for street construction, however, decreased from the
$8,581,361 reported in April, to 6,862,847 in May a drop of $1,
718,514. West Virginia, with $16,225,000, led the states in May in
proposed road bond issues reported. Florida was second with
$3,250,000 and Iowa was third with $3,000,000. In proposed
bond issues for streets Illinois led with the one proposed expendi
ture of $5,400,000 in Chicago and Texas was second with $1,299,
C00. Florida, with $468,000, ranked third.
"' Of road bond issues voted during May Michigan led with
$9,380,850, while Alabama, with $3,150,000, and Colorado, with
$3,140,000, ranked second and third. Ohio voted more bond is
ftues for streets than any other state, and led with $1,433,997.
Michigan followed with $1,175,000. North Carolina, with $1,
143,000 ranked third. ' "
: North Carolina, with $8,400,000, reportd more road bonds sold
than any other fctate. Texas was ntxt in line with $6,201,50')
and Ohio was third with $1,404,450.
Ohio, with $1,636,891, also led in street bonds reported rolrl,
followed by North Carolina with 937,000 and Virginia with $820,-
000.
The reports indicate that the costa involved in road and
street construction are entering more fully into public discussions
when it comes to votinr money for hiithway improvements. The
United States Bureau of Public Roads has just completed statis
tics on road building costs that are not only valuable but perti
nent to public discussion of any good roads project. This federal
bureau spends more money for highways than any other one
body in the world. Last year is expended $105,000,000 of federal
appropriations for new highway construction, a sum m excess
of the total amount expended for all purposes by the departments
of commerce, interior Hnd agriculture combined. In conjunction
with this sum an amount more than equal to the federal aid was
provided by the states. All of this expenditure went into some
thing that constitutes a tangible asset for the free use of all the
. people, aid to toll roads having been expressly prohibited by law.
'. The charts prep .red by the bureau compare the costs in
'. Yoked in the construction of bituminous mncadam, concrete,
; gravel and graded and drained highways and show that, for the
whole of the United States during tho entire period 1917-1922,
covered by federal aid, the average cost of concrete roads has in
creased about 45 per cent; that of bituminous macadam about 22
per cent, and that of gravel roads about 12 per cent.
'"" Tho average cost per mile for each of the three types is
given as follows: Gravel, $9,230; bituminous macadam, $25,720
' concrete, $36,600. Concrete roads, according to the charts, have
advanced in cost from $26,000 a mile in 1917 to $38,000 a mile
; Jn 1922. Bituminous macadam roads, which are principally as
plialt, cost $22,500 a mile in 1917, and $27,500 a mile this year.
