National Aid For Roads.
Hon. Dick T. Morgan of Okla
homa made an appeal in Con
, gress last August for national
aid to our public roads. We
quote the folowing from Iris ad
dress:
“The indifference of our peo-j
pie on this subject is astounding.
Other matters, of far less impor- j
tance, have the attention of both j
Congress and the people. The
need of better public highways
is not adequately recognized.
Fully three-fourths of my consti-j
^ tuents are farmers. They are di
rectly interested in good roads. |1
The people residing in the towns,
and cities are also vitally inter-, <
ested in good roads. Every mail
_J brings me letters urging me to
give my support to propositions '
pending in congress. But few
write concerning national aid
for the improvement of our pub- ;
lie highways. Why this indiffer- r
ence concerning such an impor- ;
tant matter? Evidently there is .]
much work to be done. Public j
k sentiment musr be aroused. Con
gress seldom acts in advance ot
public opinion. Usually the na
tional legislative body simply re-1
cords what public sentiment de
crees. The people finally secure
what they want. The people can
have national aid for the better
' ient of public highways when
l ^ey demand it. Many projects1
the bau: ^ .
will deny the vast, bei
will come from'improvement in
our highways. No one will say
that these benefits will not be
distributed to all sections of our
country and to all classes of peo
ple. No one will say the Nation
al Government is financially un
able to render assistance in good
road building. Congtess, then,
has the poweiythe National Gov
ernment is able, the benefits will
be substantial and equally dis
tributed to all classes of our cit-j
izens—North and South, east j
and West. The time for action
has arrived. National aid for j
the improvement of our public
highways should be our battle
cry. Farmers, merchants, me
chanics, men in every calling and
avocation of life should unite in
pushing good roads to the front.
National aid for improvement in
)ur public roads does not con
template less work or the expen
liture of less money by state and
ocal authorities. Federal aid is
nerely to supplement the work
o be done by the states.”
