Constitutional Convention News on Highways Report
The Convention approved Committee No. 14 on highways with little change. E A Duensing leads and the Commission’s program largely stands. Section 2 earmarks motor vehicle taxes for state highways and outlines fund uses including bonds, staff costs, workmen’s comp, and retirement. New provisions add funding for supplementary roads, city and rural projects, and interstate work while keeping prior bond obligations valid.
