CITES MONEY NOW SPENT, Florence Webster, of Fargo, Is Appointed to Place The ‘North Dakota Good Roads As- sociation today issued a formal state- ment answering statements made by. J, R. Poupore, county commissioner. of Grand Forks county, which the as- sociation said was an attack upon its program, the state highway commis- sion administration and the asgoca- tion. Mr. Poupore hag misrepresented the associaation in charging that the associataion intended to bond the state to build roads and advocated a system of concrete roads across thé state. The statement was mailed to all county commissioners in the state and to representatives of the asso- ciation. Says Money Wanted It says in part:. “The State of North Dakota in the past ten years, leaving out entirely the} State and Federal roads, has spent $35,000,000.00 on its highways and has. built less than 3,500 miles of ‘perma- -nent roads, and if*guch tétics‘are fol- lowed’ iw. biiilding ‘& 'Btate' system of roads ¢omprising about 6,000 miles, it is reasonable to compute that it will cost the State at least $50,000,000.00 to build the proposed sysetem and will tas at least ten years to complete} t. “Under our plan we can complete the entire State System of about 6,000 miles in ‘legs' than five years and at a cost of legs. than $10,000,000.00. This looks toug''that it means not only a saving of $40,000,000.00 to the people of our State, but it means also the completion of about 5,000 miles of “honest to God” highways in less than five years. i . “To ‘be sure, Mr. Poupore and other County Commissioners would lose their jurisdiction over the State sys- tem of roads in their county, but the benefit to the State at large and the|’ saving to the tax payers would be so great that it should more than com- pensate the Commissioners for the joss of supervision ..over the trunk voadg in their county and it would’ at the same time permit’ them to give their entire attention to the builaing ot their county systems of highways. |i. The time ‘is here when the State at large is interested, and has a ;right to be, in the roads. There is scarcely a citizen fn the state of North Dakota Who doesqnot, at some time during the county and he has a right to ‘expect that wherever he may ‘go that he may travel on in safety, comfort and with but small expense.” NO FORKS LABOR OFFICE Grand Forks, N. 'D., March 31.—No labor office will be established in this city this spring acaording to informa- tion received from Mrs. Minnie Bowe, superintendent of the federal and state employment bureau at Fargo.
