A draft bill from the Iowa joint highways subcommittee outlines a temporary program granting the highway commission full control of primary road construction and maintenance, while county boards and township trustees oversee secondary roads. It abolishes primary road special assessments, funds primary work from the primary road fund, and limits additions to the system until current mileage improves. The plan totals about 8.83 million dollars for indebtedness and construction this year, with 2.63 million for debt and 0.37 million for fifteen counties' secondary systems, leaving 5.83 million for new work.
