Kerr County.

way Commission that only the most meritorious secondary roads be incorporated into the state
maintained system in order to render the greatest possible service to the public and that the
program would be recommended to them on that basis,

by the State Highway Commission after a study of the submissions from the District Engineers
of the State Highway Department and the County informed of the action taken by the Highway
Commission through the office of the District Engineer.
The above order and resolution was accepted, after motion having been duly made by
Molter seconded by Guthrie and unanimously approved by the court, that the projects be re-
~' commended as per order on file,
