It la time for us to get out of the
mud. We need and must have good
roads. They will add to the wealth,
thrift and happiness of our people and
our state. This measure ($6,000,000
road bond bill) does not add one far­
thing to our taxes; It simply capital­
izes waste. No sane man or woman
should offer a single word of opposi­
tion to this movement.—Governor

said Governor Withycombe, discuss­

than any measure in its history, be­

Whenever any County shall make
application to the Commission setting
forth a desire to do construction work
on post roads, forest roads or any
other state highway within its limits,
the Commission will authorize a def­
