Ottawa. Ont.. Nov. 24.— (A. P.) — Forty million dollars is being spent 1 , on good roads in Canada this year. Highways construction has been car ried on on a larger scale this yeat than ever before and the appropria tions for work are the highest on re cord. according to A. W. Campbell, | commissioner of highways. j "Of the total sum spent, «15,- 000.000 will be used on federal aid highways, of which (6.000.000 will i come out of the Dominion treasury,” said Mr. Campbell. "Expenditures being made by the provinces and counties on roads not receiving fed eral assistance will amount to about «25.000,000.” There are now 1,000 miles of per manent paved road In Canada, or ! sufficient mileage to extend one- third of the distance between the At lantic and Pacific coast, according to Mr. Campbell, who added that this mileage is being increased as rapidly as possible. The Dominion government has ap propriated (20,000.000 to be used In construction of main highways and market roads, calculated to cover a period of five years. This is divided among the provinces on the basis of population. Under the terms of the grant the provinces carry out the road building, and the government, on approval of the plans, contributes 40 per cent of the cost. This guar antees standardization of roadways and places only 60 per cent expenso on the provinces. Highway Improvement has been especially rapid in the west, due to the rapid development of the great agricultural districts by the influx of new settlers, states Mr Campbell. Farmers* are doing much of their marketing with motor trucks and crops are quickly transported to market over the modern highways.
