sponse to the fund- raising campaign
in America. according to reports re-
quln Connecticut. there are 1 600 miles cam ‘mm mer’c‘“ 39"” “‘3‘“
of truck line highways. Out. 02 this
960 mime. 600 miles are in need of im.
mediate reconstruction. It is a. fact
that. roads built as long ago as some
portion of the 960 miles referred to
are absolutely unsuitable both in
(moon and surfacing as perman-
ent highways for the carrying 0!
modern traffic The modern use or
these roads in volume. weight and
speed of trellis is for in excess of any-
thing for which they were ever in-
tended. Conditions have changed so
rapidly and traffic has increased by
such leaps and bounds that they are
.no longer adequate. The future road
building policy. of the state must
therefore be predicated upon modern
requirements of n tremenduouy traf-
fic. Thlsvmeans that many miles of
roads which are in immediate need of
rebuilding. must be built shortly or
else there must be a. waste of the
state’s money in replacing extraor-
dinary wear. and tear instead or ex-
penditureon permanency.
The fees from the registration of
motor vehicles from the licensing of
operators. and from all the activities
connected with the motor vehicle dc-
partmcnt of the state are devoted en—
tirely to the use of the highway dc-
partmcnt. The nrocrcs of collection
takes these fees through the motor
vehicle department to the treasurers
office and from the trcasurr's office
the total collection is credited for use
on the state highways.
The reports of the highway com-
missioner show that in former y-ars
the unmunts collected and credith
have been barely enough to take up
representatives in Eastern Europe.
.Roports ot the horrible conditions
among these sufferers have ail-red
the Jewish people of America. so
e'y en earlier appeals have tailrid to do.
In the famine districts of Russia.
where the American Relief adminis-
tration is operating, the Jewish popu-
lation is comparatltely small but in
the Ukraine 200.000 heads of Jewish
families have perished as a result or
continuous civil strife and 400, 000
Jews have become homeless refugees
The majority of the states have al-
ready been \ organized for the cam-
paign and quotas for the greater part
