Committee Recommends :i
$6,000,000 Appropriation
Two hundred and fifty supervi-
sors, representing the various
counties of the state of New York
constitute the fifth annual con-
•ention in the interest of road im-
provement. which opened in Al-
bany last week. The meeting
was called to order by State En-
gineer and Surveyor Bond. As-
semblyman Jean I.t Burnett, of
Ontario county, was elected per-
manent chairman. He called at-
tention to the constitutional
amendment pending in the legis-
lature which provides for the is-
sue by the state of ?5°,000,000 in
bonds to carry on an extensive
and comprehensive system ot
highway improvements.
The standing committee, o
which the chairman is W. I'ier-
pojit White, of Utica, made these
recommendations:
First—The equilization of state
money goin^ to the money sys-
tem towns, so that these roads
will receive 50 per cent state aid,
irrespective of the assessed \alua-
tien of the town.
Second—A special bill to ap-
propriate $6,000,000, $2,000,000 of
which to be payable in 1904, $2,-
000,000 in 1905, and ?2,o0o,000 in
1906, for the main highways.
Third—The readopting of the
resolution to bond the state for
highway improvement.
Fourth—The passage of a reso-
lution recommending the grant-
ing of greater powers to the coun-
ty engineer.
Fifth—The passage of a resolu-
tion recommending the granting
to the State Engineer's depart-
ment of the power to create a state
standard in the money system
towns for road work, and the
withholding of money until the
road work is properly done.
' So great is the demand for
iad improvement,'' says the re-
port, "that at the highway con-
vention a year ago your executive
committee was instructed to pre-
pare the necessary legislation to
lead up to a bond issue of $5°'"
000,000, and we would repeatedly j
report that the following amend-1
ment to the constitution was
drafted and passed bv the As-
sembly and Senate, and that it
must again be passed by the leg-
islature of "1905 and then submit-
ted to th~e people for their ap-
proval, the same as the canal re-
ferendum

least one mile in every ten of all
the highways in every county of
the state, so as to have a state
system of 7,500 tniles of road, so
laid out by the local boards of
supervisors in each county as to
bring about not only continuous
stretches of improved highway
from one end of the state to the
other, but to primarily bring pro-
duce from now inaccessible parts
of the state to the shipping cen-
tres. Of the moneys raised the
state would be called upon to ex-
pend $25,000,000. The counties
would eventually pay to the state
35 per cent of the remainder of
£17,500,000 and the towns 15 per
cent, $7,500,000.
"So great is the demand 011 the
part of the counties for improved
highways that there are now thir-
ty-five counties which have ap-
propriated $3,557,286 for theii
share of the cost of constructing
767 miles of highway. We there-
fore recommend the passage of a
resolution requesting the passage
of a special bill asking for the ap-
propriation of $6,000,000, making
$2,000,000 available for road con-
struction in 1904, 000,000 in
1905 and $2,000,000 in 1006, when
we expect that the bond issue will
be available and the money avail-
able on the part of the state, coun
ty and town will then proceed at
the rate of five million for each
year for ten years and so com
plete our system of highways."
