French Bond Payments to Aid Highway Conatruction A bill authorizing the creation of a special highway fund from the proceeds of the sale of $407,341,145 worth of surplus highway equipment and war materials sold to France following the war has been introduced in the Senate by Senator James E. Watson of Indiana. The measure, providing this huge sum of money for highway construction, stipulates the ftmds are to be apportioned among the 48 states in the same proportion as the Federal-aid pro~. gram. It is a -companion bill to one introduced in the House on January 30 by Representative Edward E. Browne and which has already been endorsed by the Governors and State Highway departments of twenty states. The measure, which is being fostered by the American Motorists association, is unique in that it will add nothing to the tax-payers' burden, as the funds are to be secured solely through the payment of French bonds which will mature August 1 1929 and which were given in pay~e~t of more than $2,000,000,000 worth of equipment and supplies.
