Dix Talks on Hiqhways,

Binghamton, N. Y, Feb. 21.-Gov-

guest of the Binghamton Chamber of
Commerce, under whose auspices the
1911 automobile show is being conduct
ed. In speech before a crowd that
filled the state apmory Governor Dix
covered in general way the duties of
his Office. Touching on the State High
way Department, he said:
Recently we have had some discus
sion in this state about the construction
of highways. One satisfactory result
of this discussion has been to attract
attention to the method and the means
whereby our highways are constructed
The intent or purpose of the original
highway bill was to improve the market
highways of the state.
81 am just in receipt OF letter from
a farmer who states that in his county
four miles of road had been constructed
in the farming section, but that twenty
miles had been constructed to a summer
resort. If the cost of living is to be
reduced, it can result largely through
means of INSTRUMENTATION between
the farming districts and the important
cities. There will be great disappoint-
ment when the entire appropriation is
expended and the mileage of the high
ways of the state that have been i'm
proved will be only small fraction of
the total We will then be confronted
with an outlay of approximately $500 a
mile to keep the highways in repair,
and our expenditures each year will be
close to $4,000,0 900, without adding to
the mileage.
Upon investigating the building OF
highways in Massachusetts, | find that
more than double the mileage is con-
structed for the same amount of outlay,
as compared with the amount accom-
plished in this state. New York Tri-
