Iowa Road Legislation Aims For 1925 General Assembly
Des Moines reports plan to dominate the Fortieth Iowa General Assembly with a comprehensive road program. Proposals include an $86 million bond issue funded by automobile fees and a two cent gasoline tax, plus alignment with federal aid rules and central control by the state highway commission. Two thirds of gasoline tax receipts would bolster secondary roads, while distribution debates seek broader state authority and surfacing standards for federal main highways.

Exodus of Women from Industry in Trainetl N Y
A New York survey reports that most women recruited during World War I to replace men in shops and factories have given up their positions as men return. In some cases women remain in roles once held by men, proving capable, though much of the wartime labor was heavier than employers consider permanent for women. The shift reflects a broader exodus of women from industrial work.
