NATIONAL AID
FOR HIGHWAYS
American Automobile Association and
the American Road Congress Join
in Their Efforts to Get Help.

American Automobile Association and
the American Road Congress Join
in Their Efforts to Get Help.
Pronounced impetus has been given
to the proposal for the construction Of
a system of national highways by the
enthusiasm with which good roads ad-
vocates throughout the country have
welcomed the action of the American
Road congress in endorsing the fed
eral aid proposition generally, as well
as the recent project for the construc-
ton of a great ocean tO-Ocean high
way. in part following the old trails
of the early pioneers, and to be built
with funds, much of which viii be
provided by the automobile and allied
Industries, general leading concerns
having already agreed to contribute
one-thifd of one percent of their gross
earnings for the next three years to-
wards this great national road.
That the national government
should continue the policy of federal
aid in highways construction adopted
by the present congress. without wait
ing for object lessons in the shape Of
privately constructed trans continent
al roads, was the opinion of the con-
gross. expressed in its first and most
important resolution. In this it en-
dOrsed the attitude of the A. A. A.,
which has consistently been that be-
fore any particular route for ma
UOnal road or system of roads can be
intelligently selected, there must be
adopted a definite policy of apprOpria-
lions and expenditures and the proper
administrative machinery providing
for the economical distribution of
available funds The action of the con-
gress of the United States in apprO-
priatiug 100000 for experimental
road construction and appointing
joint committee TO report upon a COM
prehensive plan for further federal aid
was endorsed by the road congress,
as well as the proposal to create
a national department of good roads
as q separate branch of the federal
government.
OF great historic and patriotic i'm
pOrtance was the action of the road
congress in endorsing the resolution,
for which the A. A A. has continu-
0usly stood out that the national me-
mortal TO Abraham Lincoln should
take the form of great highway with
suitable architectural approaches and
adOrnment extending from Washing
ton TO the battlefield of Gettysburg.
and eventually to be continued south
ward TO Richmond
Equally important was the adop-
tion OF the resolution calling upon
congress for suitable provision for the
construction of a firstclass highway
leading from the city Of Washington
to the national cemetery at Arlington
The deDlOrable condition of this road
is well known to memberS of con-
gress. and it is hoped that favorable
action on this resolution win result

EXILED BECAUSE
HE LOVES A CAR
Unique Case of Rich Farmer From
Prince Edward IsIand-HOme
HroNince nara All CnrE-

Unique Case of Rich Farmer From
Prince Edward Island-HOme
Province Bars All Cars.
That there exists a thicl1ly pOpu-
lated, wealthy, civilized and otherwise
progressive part of the western hemi-
sphere, rigidly closed to automobiles,
is fact of which the average motor
list is probably unaware. Such is the
case, however In the rich agricul-
tural province Of Prince Edward
Island, motor cars remain legally
listed with wild animals Of destructive
tastes, riots, revolutions and similar
disturbances. Should one appear on
the street the peaceful islanders
would probably call out the militia.
This strange condition is recalled
each year by the appearance in Can
ada of a Prince Edward Islander, Don
aid Mcdonald.
Each fail after Mr.. 8IcDonald's crops
have been harvested, he puts his fam
lily on the Montreal boat and starts for
Canada, where he buys a new touring
car. Mother Mcdonald and the little
McDonalds pile in, father Mcdonald
takes the wheel and they roll away,
first for a trip through Ontario and
New York; later for a longer run into
the sunny south.
On his return in the spring. Mr.. Nc
Donald sells his car and takes the
boat for home, ready for the seasons
work.
Mr. Mcdonald deeply regrets the fact
that his love for motoring implies an
annual exile from home and native
land. He says that the present con-
ditiOn is due to two factOrs-the con-
servatism Of the islanders and the
presence in the early history Of mo-
tOring. OF a number Of reckless drivers
who visited the island during the sum-
mer touring season
I'VE are essentially a farming prov
ince,' he says, and nearly all Of us
own weu-bred horses The first autos
caused a lot of rUnaways, and one or
two had tragic ends. Our legislators
refused to wait until our horses could
be schOOled to the motor car, but went
ahead and barred cars from the island
Now. though CharlOttetOwn and the
other cities strongly favor repeating
the law, the country influence is all
ways strong enough to sustain IL. It's
land for motoring in the world. The
island is the most thickly populated
as well as the wealthiest percapita,
province of Canada, and is traversed
everywhere in its $50 miles of length
by fine post roads. A prettier stretch
of farm. woodland. sea and river
doesn't exist anywhere on earth
Now and then some American or
European MANUFACTURED. ignorant of
the local embargo. comes into the
Prince Edward Island papers with an
campaign. On such Occa-
siOns progressive men like MI Nc
Donald find their emotions too varied
to permit of analysis.
incidentally, although families aver
age nearly six members each. the pop
ulatiOn of the island is steadily de-
creasing-a fact which may or may
not be connected with the embargo
on automobiles.

WOMAN CROSSES
COUNTRY IN AUTO
Mrs. ID. L. FaIIin, OF Los Angeles,
Drives From New York to the West
Coast and Sets Record.

Coast and Sets Record.
Finishing the longest automobile
drive ever undertaken by a woman,
Mrs. D. l. Fallin, Of Los Angeles, pi-
lOted her go" touring car into a Bond
street garage last week and rightfully
earned the honor Of being the first Of
her sex to bring a car over the tedious
route from New York to Los Angeles
unassisted-
Additional IaureIs belong to Mrs.
Fallin for the manner in which she
brought her car across the continent
Not q single item Of equipment other
than that carried by motorists on or
binary runs was added to the car, yet
the trip from Gotham was accOmp-
hshed without any long delays be-
cause of mechanical troubles, show
ing that the fair pilot understood her
machine and traversed the hardest
roads in safety.
The Fallin's cross country trip was
from Gotham to Baltimore and Wash
ington, and thence home over the
n-tO-Ocean highway.
fAll the terrors Of the journey can
not spoil the joys OF touring for US,
said Mrs. Fallin. In southern AIichi-
gan, when Mr. Fallin was driving, we
went through a storm supposed to be
the hardest seen there in years; in
Colorado we were forced to climb some
terrific grades, and right here near
home, on the desert, it was not ex-
actly comfortable bucking sand, yet
we enjoyed it all the way. The car be
haved perfectly, and not once were we
forced to the roadside, save when tire
trouble occurred"
The Fallins viii Immediately start
on another long trip, which viii take
them from Mexico on the south to Brit
ish Columbia on the north.
