ROAD PROGRAM
$6,000,000 Federal Aid “Plan Submitted by State Highway Body.
Tentative approval of the $8,000,000 Federal aid highway improvement program submitted to the United States Bureau of Public Roads by the Indiana State Highway Commission was announced today by James D. Adams, commission chairman.
Cost of the paving, grading, surfacing, bridges and grade separations included in the program is to be borne equally by Indiana and the Federal government, Mr. Adams said. Projects include grading and paving of 231 miles oi» Road 29 be-
tween W. 38th-st and Kessler-blvd |
and paving of three sections of Road 67 southeast of Indianapolis. Paving, surfacing and grading on 162.43 miles of state highways, 22 bridges and five grade separations are ‘included. Federal funds involved amount to $3,087,613 and must be matched by the state, Mr. Adams explained.
Changes Now Necessary
“These projects mark a continuation of the improvement and safety programs inaugurated by the commission ‘three years ago,” Mr. Adams said, “and are of primary importance in modernization of Indiana's state highway system to meet present-day and future traffic needs.” Plans for some of the projects have been completed, and plans for the remainder are being hurried to completion, the commissioner said, because all plans receive final approval from the United States " Bureau of Roads before bids are taken and contracts awarded. Members of the commission expect to have all plans approved, bids taken and contracts awarded before the close of the present year.

Locarno Powers
probably for decades to: come.
times, Great Britain now has begun a do-or-die attempt to remake the peace of Europe and limit armaments. Under her auspices the last vestiges of the Treaty of Versailles may go into the discard to make way for a new understanding which will permit ‘Germany, as an absolute -equal, to re-enter the European concert. This means that henceforth Britain, rather than France will take the lead in liquidating the World War, but it also means that if she fails Germany will have to reckon with her in the event of aggression. ‘ Rhineland Coup the Cause
‘Such, is the background of the meeting of the Locarno powers— Britain, France and. Belgium—ioday in ‘tlie British capital. oe Today’s event had its origin in the startling coup of March 1, when German troops, without warning, marched into the Rhineland in violation of the treaties of Versailles and Locarno. For 48 hours it was 50-50 whether there would be war. Part of the French cabinet wanted to occupy German territory and bluntly inform Hitler thal when Nazi troops were pulled out of the Rhineland French troops would evacuate Nazi soil. Uncertainty over what Britain would. do in the event of war had much to do with France's hesitation. And that hesitation probably saved the peace. But France since

For Britain, France and Belgium formally to agree to continue on the basis of the existing pacts, he feels, would be regarded by Germany as nothing less than a triple alliance aimed at her. And Mr. Eden is adamant against such alliances until every other way out has been tried and found wanting. He is convinced another world war is just ahead unless: almost superhuman efforts are made to head it off. England has. assumed the leadership in these efforts.
