A—6 ¥ DEFENE HGAWAY WOENNG ELAYED Preference Given to Im- provement of Baltimore- Annapolis Road. 8pecial Dispatch to The Star. ANNAPOLIS, October 31.—Widen- ing of the Defense Highway has been deferred in favor of the construction of a dual highway between Annapolis and Baltimore, Nathan L. Smith, chief engineer of the State Roads Commis- sion, disclosed yesterday. P Terming the latter highway more urgent, the engineer said it would be constructed despite the reduction in the Federal road allotment to Mary- land. Road Held Adequate. Still contending the Defense High- way is adequate for present traffic, Smith declared that neither that road | nor the newly opened highway be- | tween Washington and Annapolis by ' way of Davidsonville would be im- proved at this time. In taking this view the engineer turned a deaf ear to the pleas of Prince Georges and Anne Arundel officials and civic groups. On the other hand Smith held that a widened and improved road between the State capital and the Maryland metropolis is absolutely necessary. “There is every indication that the highway will be widened,” he sald. “It| is included in our first projects de- spite thz reduction in the Federal al- lotment to Meryland.” Men Not Available. The Public Works Administration has indorsed proposed improvements to the road, despite the attitude of Francis H. Dryden, Maryland admin- istrator, who regards a wider Balti- more-Annapolis Boulevard as unnec- essary. Although the State and Federal P. ‘W. A. officers have approved 81 miles of farm-to-market road improvements in Anne Arundel County, John A. Bromley, county road engineer, reports he cannot get men to do the work because nearly all available labor now is employed at the Naval Academy. Flies Deadly.

By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, October 31.—A survey by the magazine Sales Management, released today, disclosed that 71 per cent of a selected group of the largest general and automotive newspaper ad- vertisers will increase advertising ap- propriations in 1936 over 1935. Through an independent research 250 leading companies: “From present indications, will your appropriation for 1936 be larger or smaller than 1935?" A response was received from about 100 companies, it was stated, and of these some 10 per cent did not give a direct answer, but of the remainder, 71 per cent sald next year's adver- tising appropriations would be larger, 4 per cent said smaller, and 25 per cent declared spending would be about the same next year as during 1935. “While the list used was the list of largest newspaper advertisers,” the magazine declared, “the firms repre- sented are in general the largest TAR.

DAYTON, Ohio, October 31 (#).— Representative Chester C. Bolton, Re- publican, of Ohilo, attacking financial policles of the Roosevelt administra- tion, said last night that many relief measures had not been authorized by Congress, including the new ship canal being constructed across Florida. As a member of the House Rivers and Canals Committee, he “knew,” he said, that the canal had not been approved by his group and had not received the approval of Army en- gineers, “But,” Bolton continued, “President Roosevelt has sald that the money will be expended on the project.” _EDUCATIONAL.
