Highway Cost
Estimates Hit
WASHINGTON OP - Sen. Albert
Gore (D-Tenn) said today an 11
state check has shown "a disturb
ing lack of uniformity" in ways
of preparing cost, estimates for
the interstate highway network.
The estimates form the basis on
which federal funds are allocated
among the states. Lack of uniform
ity in the estimates would tend to
increase some states' shares and
lower others. The federal govern
ment pays 90 per cent of the cost
of the interstate superhighways.
Gore said the system was criti
cized in a report from the General
Accounting Office, which made the
study at his request. The report
noted, however, that the Bureau
ol Public Roads defended its ap
portionments as fair and reason
able. The senator said the Public
Koads subcommittee he heads will
meet tomorrow to consider the
GAO report.
Because federal aid funds for
highways must be voted and ap
portioned well ' in advance, Gore
said, the division among states for
fiscal 19d9. which begins July 1,
and fiscal 1960, a year later, must
stand.
Gore said in a statement the
GAO sampling survey found that
design standards, .traffic esti
mates, and costs lacked the uni
formity asked by Congress in
passing the Highway Act.
States involved in the GAO
check were California, Colorado,
Georgia, Illinois. Kansas, New
York, New Jersey, Ohio, Texas,
Virginia and Washington.

plenty of them would cost at

Two bands entertained and a
large tent protected the throng

no presents, just a card, heeded
Nate's instructions. They filled a
55 gallon drum with birthday

Not a penny came from the
taxpayers of the United States.
Not a penny came from the tax-F-tvers

brought him under fire from U.S.

But he cautioned that Congress

these problems as a political is
For the first time since passage
of the Taft-Hartley law in 1947,
Ives said in a radio address, re-
sponsibile union leaders now are
offering to cooperate op what he
called reasonable labor legislation.
Without naming them, he said
some senators favor drastic anti
union legislation and would prefer
no law at all than one short of
their demands.
This "rule or ruin attitude is no
way to tackle the problems un
covered by the Senate Rackets
Committee." Ives added
He is senior Republican on the
committee headed by Sen. John L.
McClellan (D-Ark) which has been
probing improper labor-nianage-incnt
activities.
Referring to .the group's dis
closures, he said some union lead
ers have made progress in clean
ing up labor's house, "but they
need the federal government's
help in this effort."
The proposed legislation is de
signed primarily to protect rank
and file union members, Ives said,
but "it also will benefit manage
ment by introducing greater re
sponsibility into labor-management
relations.
Secretary of Labor Mitchell, in
a television interview, said Con
gress has a mandate to legislate
protection for all labor union
funds.
He expressed hope the House
will pass a bill, already passed by
the Senate, to regulate welfare
pension funds. But he urged Con
gress to go further and enact
President Eisenhower s labor pro
posals, including legislation to
regulate handling of dues and ini
tiation fees and to provide secret
balloting for union officers.
