New Mexico Road Debate Shapes State Campaign
The piece argues for keeping road policy out of party politics while praising James A. French and the McDonald administration for building a state road system. It contrasts Republican calls for distributing federal road funds with Democratic plans to issue state bonds and maintain the existing state highway commission. The author urges voters to assess county road spending and the county share of state road bond money.
