Movement for Good Roads Promotes Brownlow Bill Petition
A note describes a petition for the Brownlow bill to back good roads. Copies are free from Rep W P Brownlow in Washington. The plan would have the national government share up to eighty percent of road construction costs under national standards, treating highways as post roads and rural routes within scope. The petition targets the president for congressional transmission and links road quality to sanitation and larger rural families.

Government aid for roads, a costly but needed experiment
The piece argues that tying farmer funding to national road building is flawed yet worth trying. It endorses Brownlow bill style federal support under strict supervision to improve permanent roads, noting dangers of misused funds, uneven outcomes, and political temptations, but urges careful testing. The Salt Lake Tribune supports better roads as essential to national welfare.
