Highway Expert From the
Pacific Coast Talks of Re-
suits Already Obtained.
Both Farmers and Merchants
Gain When Transportation
IS Made Easy.

Thai GOOD roads reaching out into the
country from big ccntcrs are Of tho same
vital Importance 10 a progressing city
as the establishment OF iuterurban lines
and that the intcrmountain country is
destined TO reap untold benefits through
the wide movement for better highways
was declared yesterday by Frank n. Nc
taudieSs Of Tacoma. president OF the
Pacific Coast Good Roads association.
Mr.. McCandless passed through this
city on route home from extend ad
trip through the east I'm the interest o;
good roeds. He was enthusiastic ovcl
the movement and declared That the
coast and lntcrmountain associations by
proper cooperation could make tho
roads Of the west not only renowned the
country over, but factors Of vital I'm
portancc in the growth. development
and prosperity or this and other thriv-
Ing communities.
He said;
An expenditure of more than
$4,000. 900 for improvements OF high
WAYS near Tacoma has been easily
offset by accrued improvements. As
result OF this, the farmers arc
placed on = par with city residents,
The frcghtine capacity OF drays and
trucks running into the country has
been increased. and the benefit is
seen In increased orders and the far
better condition of farm products
that conc into the city Tor market
ing.
And I'm this respect the good roads
move affects "A community In much
the same way intcrurhan lines do.
The farmer Is put into immediate
connection with s. profitable market
and widely beneficial business op-
portunltics.
The coast and intcrmountain as
soCigtons should cooperate In astab-
fishing some OF the best roads In
the country both for practical pur-
poses and tourist travel The trans
continental automobile route is now
certainty. and the western end
should be the best part Of II. The
Pacific Coast association is gladly
willing to cooperate with the Inter
mountain association in the impor-
tant move, and united efforts Will
accomplish inconGelvable results for
the whole section.
