GREAT NATIONAL HIGHWAY
Good Roads Association Urges Build.

= and Chicago.

The first annual meeting of the New
York and Chicago Good Roads associ-
alton, at Erie, Pa, closed with the adop-
ton of a resolution favoring the build
ing of a national highway between the
two cities named through the southern
tier of counties of New York and west
wardly along the lake shore through
Cleveland and Toledo to Chicago.
Joseph w. Hunter, state highway
commissioner Of Pennsylvania. was in
structed to go over the proposed route
and estimate the cost of construction.
The association asks national and state
aid for roads, The meeting next year
will be in Elmira, N. Y:
John Farson, Of Chicago, one Of the
delegates, pleaded for an interstate sys-
tenn Of highways.
1.-THE people of this nation are losing
hundreds of millions Of dollars annually
from failure to provide ordinary good
roads for the movement of farm prod
uce," said Mr.. Farson. I'VE may we'll
ask ourselves IL the federal government
has acted wisely in lending its aid to
great railroad systems, in assisting the
manufacturing and commercial indus
tries of the nation with prodigal hand.
and at the same time Withholding it's
support from the development of coun-
try roads. The tonnage of farm produce
on country wagon roads itself reaches
the enormous sum of $500, 000, 900 yearly.

Improve. Main Thoroughfares.


Frequent complaint is made by peo-
ple who live at q remote distance from
the villages and public centers, that
nothing is done to improve the back
roads on which they live. and that they
IRE taxed to benefit other roads in the
more populous parts Of the town. There
seems to be some justice in this plea.
and yet it would be poor policy to ex-
pend state money upon any but the main
roads or thoroughfares. These roads be-
long to all. The persons who live in the
most remote parts Of the town have a
greater profitable interest in main roads
than they are apt to realize. The near

that carriages, wagons, carts, sleighs
