1935: President Franklin D. Roosevelt signs the Davis-Bacon Act applying prevailing wages to Federal projects. For Bureau of Public Roads, because the States are the contracting Agency on Federal-aid projects, the act applies only to projects administered by Bureau of Public Roads on Federal lands until the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956 applies the requirement to initial construction of the Interstate System (extended to other Federal-aid projects in 1968).

1964: Acting Deputy Administrator Lowell Bridwell, Chief Engineer Frank Turner, and 8 other Bureau of Public Roads officials explain the Federal-aid program to 11 visiting Japanese Prefecture Governors.
