George W. Barton of the Chicago Motor Club says the $4.8 billion works relief fund will first boost jobs in Illinois and Indiana through highway construction. He notes about 90 percent of highway spending goes to labor, that states have ready plans, and Hayden amendment guarantees fair state shares. An additional $250 million in federal aid and matching funds will follow, expanding paved mileage for the nation's 25 million cars in the next two years.
