Governor Advocates Rock and Gravel Roads in Indiana
Governor McCray told Republican editors that building rock and gravel roads would cost about 10 000 dollars per mile while hard roads like concrete or brick would run about 40 000 dollars per mile. With a 4 000 mile proposed system he favors at least 3 000 miles of rock and gravel. He discussed the Indiana State Reformatory and said relocation would cost at least a million dollars and would not occur until finances permit. He urged urgent action to aid farmers, whose buying power underpins the state economy.
