Toll Road Debate Raised by Iowa Rotarians
Robert Bliss of the Free Roads Association addressed the Iowa Rotary Club on a proposed toll road. He argued against a toll road authority, urging Highway Commission oversight, noting Iowa’s plan costs about 180 million dollars with 3 percent bonds and 4000 projected daily cars, insufficient to offset expenses. He warned the federal road program could shift the situation and urged caution in Legislature action. A Pella group to sing at Ottumwa District Conference was announced, along with a committee to visit the Knoxville Veterans Hospital.
