BERLIN WANTS SPEED. Measures Taken to Promote More
 Rapid Traffic.

Ever since Berlin has started to rival Paris and London as a center for tour ist attraction, the need has been felt for two mproVements-a quieter city and a more speedy city. A year ago the last reform was tried first, but it was discovered that with speeding up policy" in vogue the noise increased. Then measures were introduced to make the city more quiet with the idea of later speeding up the traffic
 During last spring police regulations were enforced against street noises to such good purpose that the Kaisers capital on the eve of his jubilee had become a comparatively quiet town; and now the "speeding-up'' policy is put forward again with a better pros pect of success and without increas- ing the citys noises

ROADS
WASTE ROAD BUILDING FUNDS
Need Of Constructing the Right
Kind Of Roads.

The once Of public roads Of the do
partment of agriculture Is making a
strong effort to focus the mind Of the
country on the fact that maintenance
n effective repair are Of equal Inn
portance with the actual Improvement
OF bad roads. Investment Of money
In new roads does not become real
economy until provision is made for
keeping these new roads in condition
after they are built. II a new road
was built and then allowed to fall into
disrepair, much Of the original In
vestment is simply wasted.
Europe, generally speaking. is ahead
OF the United States in the matter
OF road improvement, but Great
Britain Is struggling with a problem
similar to the one that confronts the
people OF the United States. In Eng
land, Scotland and Wales there are no
fewer than 2,140 separate authorities
who between them, administer 175,4S7
miles of roads, OF an average OF only
So miles apiece. In Scotland. apart
from the big cities there are over
200 burghs, one-half Of which have but
ten miles Of road apiece to maintain.
Needless to say, such a minute mile
age is insufficient to keep the road
plant fully occupied all the year
around, and renders the employment
Of a skilled engineer impossible for
economical reasons.
Officials Of the office Of public roads
when called upon for assistance by the
various states are pointing out that
road building is an art based on a
science. and that trained men and ex-
perienced men are necessary to Sc
cure the best results from the expendi-
ture OF road funds.
Statisticians have found that al
though the average expenditure on the
of roads exceeds n mil
lion dollars a day, a large portion of
the money in the United States Ia
wasted because of the failure to build
the right type Of road to meet the
local requirements or the failure to
provide for the continued maintenance
Of the Improvement.
The various states and counties
within the past six months have
taken a greater interest in road i'm
than ever before In the
Of the United tSates, and there
Is now q strong movement to con
the roads Of the country where
are improved. Scientific mainte-
nance will be one Of the chief fea-
lures of the work Of the Office Of pub
lie roads throughout the present year.
