been begun on about 100 projects for
which agreements had not actually
been signed, thus expediting the prog

On the average the states have sub
mltted project statements for nearly
95 per cent of their respective allot

for about one-half of their federal-aid
money. The projects actually com

few, but they are materially exceeded
in number by those which are practti

Illinois, Idaho, Indiana, IoWa, Kansa
