The present system of road building
in most states is not only expensive,
but absolutely inefficient. Road build
ing is science, which cannot be sue
cessfully applied by men who have not
made it study. 'The trained road
builder says the New Jersey commits
sioner, sis just as necessary as the
trained doctor, manufacturer or educa-
tor" When this fact is recognized and
a system of scientific roadmaking be-
comes established by proper legisla-
ton, the advantages that are sure to
follow will make the rural population
wonder how they could have been so
shortsighted as to have put off USE
full reform so long.
