Theodore Gary, ex chairman of Missouri’s highway commission, replies to a St. Louis Post-Dispatch criticism reprinted by The Star.

He is remembered in Atchison for buying and selling a local independent telephone exchange.

Kansas Road Fund Progress and Cautious Fiscal View
Since 1925 Atchison county has received 204897.95 from the state gasoline tax fund and Kansas as a whole has collected 17592999. John W. Gardner, state highway director, says the combined funds from gasoline tax auto license fees and car taxes are being spent with little waste. He argues Kansas will benefit from slow, steady road building without state bond issues, warning that haste makes waste as hard surface roads may wear out faster under bonds.
