Good Reads Assn Formed in Texas
The Texas Good Roads Association is formed to promote highway construction and maintenance, funded by a four cent gas tax with one cent to the state school fund and one cent to county bond refunds. The group, led by Judge W. Huggins, aims to inform Texans on road conditions and unite car owners statewide. Directors from each congressional district will be named soon. Federal aid could supplement a $15 million plan for maintenance and modest new roads.
