Vary at Lumber
And Coal Hearing
Practically Every Witness
Testifies Plan Was to At
tempt to Derive 33 1-3
Per Cent Profit.
Lincoln, Dec. 5. (Special.) Costs
and profits in the coal and lumber
business were the subject of testi
mony before Governor McKelvie's
economic investigation today.
L: H. Pauley, Lincoln dealer, de
clared that lumber costs virtually the
same as before the war .except for
the higher freight charges.
Pauley said he figured a spread of
33 1-3 per cent tetween his cost and
selling prices on lumber. Some lum
ber, he said, he .is selling at a loss of
SO per cent. Labor which cost $2.50
before the war and $5 at the peak,
costs $3.50 now, he testified.
: Charles W. ' Bryan, city commis
sioner, is to be asked to testify as to
costs and profits of Lincoln's munici
pal coal yard,
Lumber and coal men on the stand
this afternoon continued their testi
mony as to profits related previously
by Pauley, ' although some gave
slightly less quotations on the cost
price of coal and there was -much
variance in figures on the cost of
hauling and unloading coal at Lin
coln; . ' ' ,: ."
Practically every witness testified
that he attempted always to derive
a 33 1-3 per cent cost, which is a 25
per cent selling price, profitnless
competition forced the petitagc
down. - '
Max Critchfield, who builds
houses, testified that labor in a house
which during the peak price days
cost him $2,500, could be obtained to
day for $600, which is the biggest cut
in prices of labor reported to the
committee to date.

Similar to 1916 Act
The federal highway act in a gen
eral way resembles the federal aifi act
of 1916, but contains several new fea
tures. Administration of the act by
the secretary of agriculture, and un
der him the bureau of public roads,
remains unchanged. .
Apportionment of the fund, to the
states is almost the same as in the
previous act, the fund being divided
into' three parts, one part apportioned
according to population, one accord
ing to area, and the third according
to mileage of rural and star mail
routes. A new feature is the stipula
tion that no state ..shall receive-less
than one-half of. 1 per cent of the
total fund which amounts to $365,
625, This stipulation will, increase
the amount received by four of the
smaller states, .'.Dcleware, New
Hampshire, Rhode Island and Ver
mont. " '
Several Changes Made. . .
Considerabler change, however, is
made by the act n: the manner in
which a state may use: its' allotment.
Each state must select" ai connected
road system not exceeding 7 per cent
of its road mileage for improvement
with federal aid. This system will be
divided into two classes, one of which
will be known ais interstate high
ways and the. other as: iritercounty
highways. The interstate.' highways
must not exceed'ithreeiscvenths of
the system selected; on them not
more than 60 per cent of, the state's
allotment can be soent without the
joint approval of the secretary of ag
riculture and the state highway de
partment. The intercounty highways,
which consist of Hhe remainder of
the system selected, will receive the
remainder of the state's allotment.
Except in states where more than
5 Der cent of the area is unappropri
ated, public land, the amount of fed
eral aid received "ori" any project must
not exceed 50 per cent of .the-estimated
cost. . In .states where more
than 5 per cejit of the area: is unap
propriated public land the.50 per cent
allotment is increased by an amount
equal to one-half the 'percentage of
unappropriated public, land . in. the
state. Before any funds tan be paid
to a state, the state must appropri
ate money, under the direct control
of the state highway department, to
match the federal allotment, and for
the maintenance of federal aid high
ways. ;
