Auto money for state highways continues discussion
The meeting discussed federal aid for Montana roads with a $1,031,000 federal share for 1920-8 and $1,348,000 more available. Montana must match funds to receive aid or lose state highway construction funds. It noted that 50 percent of federal road appropriations come from automobile makers and car buyers via the national treasury, and motorists should push for highway spending to ensure tax dollars support roads. Butte delegates returned from the meeting.
