become the purposes which they serve
that their traffic is a factor which
must be reckoned with in the con-
struction and greater care for the
highways and as the motor traffic is
becoming more and more expended
in its usefulness and incidentally
more eXacting on the roads, the lust
ice of a more widespread distribution
of the cost of such highways must be
apparent to everyone.
One thing that greatly increased
the Glidden tourists as they went
further southwark was the wide
spread employment of convicts in
road building. North Carolina is
awake to the worth of roads, South
Carolina is equally alive, Georgia has
used convicts in more than a hundred
counties and Florida is on the verge
of a statewide roads agitation and i'm
provement. California has appropriat.

built and maintained at the expense
of the state. Some of the lower

control of the locations of the roads
