gency that construction of other projects will often be warranted 

 regardless of cost. 



The amount appropriated by section 8 of the Federal-aid roads act 

 is supplemental to the so-called 10 per cent fund derived from re- 

 ceipts, which must be spent entirely within the National Forests. The 

 two funds together will make available annually approximately 

 $1,300,000 of Federal money for the survey, construction, and main- 

 tenance of roads and trails in and near the National Forests. This is 

 materially increased through cooperative funds made available by 

 the States, counties, associations, and individuals. In handling the 

 road and trail work the funds obtained from the appropriation made 

 under section 8 of the Federal-aid roads act and those derived from 

 the 10 per cent item will be virtually combined to cari-y out a unified 

 program. The Federal funds available for expenditure in each 

 State from both sources are shown below :
