"A subject that appeals 10 autono-
BILE owners Is the establishment OF n
syssem Of national Highways. connect
Ing every large city and place Of na-
uonai Interest from coast TO coast. -
said NJ J. Hammers. general manager
OF the Abbott Motor Company.
1t Ii astonishing when one thinks
OF the attention given the subject OF
road building during the DAYS OF es-
adjustment of our government. that
after awhile enthusiasm should dwtn-
die down TO such a degree as TO be
fncomparably outstripped by progress
made along other lines. But / be-
neve the country Is now very much
awake. Nearly everybody from the
president down is talking good roads.
IL In not an unweighed statement IN
say that the matter is one OF universal
importance. Few subjects relating
20 material interests are so broad in
their scope. II touches the interests
OF the millionaire, the farmer and
tho mechanic alike. A uniform system
on good roads will be a great step In
me solution OF the problem OF high
cost OF living. Millions of dollars are
annually lost to the farmer because
ne In unable to get his produce to
MARKET at the right time, and city
prices are kept high because produce
cannot be obtained. Good roads the
year around will contribute as much
70 prosperity. development and well
1are or the entire nation as the rail-
way. the interurban, the automobile
or me telephone to some communities.
Nothtng retards civilization and
progress like inaccessibility. The bar.
riers OF the forest or rugged Hill are
ioftttmes as effectual as seclusion be-
hind a prison wall. With good roads
through the Cumberland valley. the
Ozark mountains, and many other
such districts. the notorious poverty
ana ignorance in those communities
would disappear within a few years.
ana the great wealth of natural re-
sources OF these regions opened for
the enjoyment OF millions of people.
No expenditure OF public money
could be more profitably made than
In building national highways and as
sisting the states in road improve
ment. 1t has been figured out by gov.
eminent officials that the O,OOO 600
spent for the modern battleship would
build and pave with best brick 6ss
