SALEM, Aug. 24 During tho next five yenrs Oregon will receive from the federal government approximate ly J1.S20.000 for the building of ronds under tho provision!) of the federal nld road act, State Engineer Lewis aald today on his return froiu Washington, D. C. If this sum lit met by the state and counties of Or egon It will mean $3,640,000 for roads. Mr. lycwls went to Washington to attend a conference to discuss rules and regulations under which $So,- 000.U00 or federal money will bo ex pended In co-operation with states "Tho secretary ot agriculture In anxious that enc) state adopt a com prehensive road program and apply avullablo funds direct to such enil that a Biibstantlnl showing can bo made during tho five-year period," says Lewis. "As the fcdurnl funds will lnrcelv lin ornuinlnil liv tlm J states under the direction of tho I'nlted States oillce of public roads, thoro will bo a strong tendency to ward uniformity In state legislation and the building up of buslnesa-IIku statu departments to administer road funds. Two Method Provided. "The federal act provides two dis tinct methods for expending this enormous" sum. Under Section C, $70,000,000 is to ho expended in co operation with the states upon the dollar for dollar basis, on rural post ronds outside national forests during thu next live years, both state and federal money to bo expended by the stato highway departments under federal supervision. "Under this section, $78,687 Is now nallublo to Oregon. On July 1, 1917, $157,375, or double tho amount, will, bo available. Tho fol lowing year three times this year's Allotment will be available, and so on until tho fifth year, when the m.l., ...111 l.n lini ttt JllnftMAnln f. UIUUUMI nj UU 9tlJ,1Dla SlIIUllllKUlB , will revert if not expended within two years. Funds contributed by counties for state work can bo used to offset federal funds. National KortviU InrlmUtl. "Under section 8 of the federal act $10,000,000 Is to bo expended in co operation with the state or counties upon roads within national forests. Co-operation must be had on some equitable base, nnd the secretary of agriculture will probably hold this to mean a dollar for dollar basis. The federal funds aro to be expended by tho federal road department, and Htnto or county funds tiro to be ex pended by, or under tho direction of that department. Co-oporntho work may bo dono by the stnte or county upon roads outsldo national forests, but which connect with forest roads. "Tho sum of $127,794 will bo available to Oregon each year under this section. If not expended within the year, It will be available until until tho end of the third year. "Orccon's allotment under bath vcctloiis will thus be S20C.4SO for V tho fiscal year ending July 1, 1917, rnd $285,170 additional will tm avail able on such date for the following year, or a total of $491, 600. Oregon Neds Money. "Oregon's quarter million state highway fund has practlcnlly all been pledged by the state highway com mission for 1916 nnd tho $240,000 available In 1917 will not be suffl clcnt to meet and secure all the fed eral money available Counties may meet nnd secure part of such funds, but preference will doubtless be giv en to thoso county projects to be con structed under the supervision of the etato highway department. "In addition, the state and coun ties must agree to properly maintain co-operative roads, and must provide rights of way necessary therefor. "Project statements must bo sub mitted upon forms provided by the secretary of agriculture. As a basis v for approving projects the secretary -will rcnulro the stato and local fed--ral authorities to agree upon a gen eral plan for the Improvement of highways throughout tho state. All of tho $3,038,500 which will thus be expended In the next Ave years by the state and federal governments In co-operation can thus be applied to ward tho construction of through and connected routes, and not be frittered away on disconnected pro jects." Lewis says he believes that the federal aid act will force the various state- and county road departments to adopt higher standards of engineer ing and accounting, and apply all available funds towards the comple tion of definite projects, with pro XsIods for maintenance. , Under date of July 27 a circular relating to leave of absence to home stead settlers on unsurveyed lands was Issued from tho General Land OIIIcq from which the following is re printed as being of Interest to home steaders lu this vicinity.
