mobiles which was just now complet-
ing it's historic tour from Broadway,
New York, to Whitehall, Atlanta, un
der the auspices of two great and en-.
terprising newspapers-The Atlanta
Journl and the New York Herald.
Automobile enthusiasts, public spirit.
ed citizen and the general public,
headed by the mayor and council and
other leading city and state officials
escorted, and in other fitting ways, ex-
tended a cordial welcome to the tour
lists who were completing their jour
ney Of more than a thousand miles.
This endurance run and god roads
contest was a great undertaking, and
by means of it a sentiment has been
aroused in all the states between At
lanta and New York, and, indeed,
throughout the whole country in favor
of better roads. Such was the prima-
ry purpose of the undertaking. The
road tax is one of the heaviest burdens
imposed Upon the farmers and agricul-
tural interests of the United States.
Good roads mean a higher standard
of culture such as comes from closer
communication md greater facilities
for transportation. .
The Atlanta Journal and New York
Herald, and all participants, have rem
dered a patriotic service to their coun-
try in having undertaken and ucces
fully carried out so effective a cam
paign in so good a cause, the fruits of
which will be gathered rear after year
for a long time to come. And this is
merely the beginning. The national
highway is now an established institu-
ton, and these tours r to be an an
nual event, growing in interest, value
and importance every year..
The city of Atlanta, with its claim
to being the Gateway Of the South
celebrated the climax of this %eventful
movement in a very lavish manner.
The tourists, after arriving within the
gates Of Atlanta, were made welcome
to the best the city afforded. Ban
quets and other social functions fol-
each other in rapid succession;
and the spirit Of good fellowship and
good will which was displayed OF
every hand, was of a rare quality and
of a most gratifying nature.
The pleasures Of the Today trip be-
tween New York and Atlanta were
enhanced by the presence Of
