It’s under discussion right now by the highway finance committee of the legislative council, research arm of the legislature. The suggestion that some sec tions of the state be traversed by modern, safe toll highways, built on the principle of the famou§ Pennsylvania turnpike, have pop ular support. Now, State Engineer Harold Aitken has taken a long, hard look at toll roads in general and one in particular: a hypothetical beeline speedway between Lin coln and Omaha. Aitken, who is a lawyer as well as engineer, is not much of a dreamer. He has a lawyer’s zeal for facts and his engineer's training demands that all the angles be studied. His conclusion: the hypotheti cal road would not pay its way. Its annual income would be $3,000 less than estimated oper ating costs and interest. Authorities have always held that if a toll road anywhere in Nebraska had a chance of suc cess, it would be between the state’s two largest cities.
