A Cheer For The Highway Commission
Everybody likes to fight with the State High
way Commission. They demand improvements here
and there, and wonder why this or that isn't done. The
Commission, on the other hand, lias the same problem
as any government
ney. I he demand for improve
ments or services far exceeds the amount of revenue
they have.
