GOVERNMENT TO
AID GOOD ROADS

II congress creates a committee on
post roads. another important move
will have been made towards the logt-
cal participation OF the national gov
eminent in the highways progress Of
the country. Such action is quite
probable in the special session now IN
progress in the adoption Of resolu-
ton introduced by representative R. L
Henry Of Texas. who is chairman OF
the committee on rules.
In the past. good roads measures
have been referred to various com
mittees, with the usual result Of sec
ondary consideration in the miscel-
laneOus work Of these committees. inc
subject is now one Of such command
ing interest that II demands a commit
tee which viii give 1t first attention
IN the growing consideration OF good
roads matters by congress there is an
unmistakable advance in the conten-
tiOn that the national government
should concern itself along broad lines
relating TO the interstate phase rather
than any plan which would require the
nation to do work very properly de-
vOiving upon the community. Presl-
dent Wilson aptly expressed the logt-
cal thought when at the American
Road congress- he described roads as
threading the energies Of a nation to-
gether" and then commented upon the
fundamental Importance that the
United States should think in big
pieces. should think ultimately as
whole"
The principal arteries Of communi-
cation, and the ones properly first at
tracing federal notice, develop them
selves naturally, and in this connec-
ton a study of the map Of the United
States shows that a great majority CT
the large cities Of the country are To-
Gated near the borders of their states
It is fair to presume that in each sCcn
case. nearly as much traffic viii
reach a city from the adjoining state
as from its own. In marketing prod
ucts. sending out supplies, and trans
porting individuals state lines fan 10
serve and beneficial purpose the
travel, whether commercial or pleas
ure is either created or attracted BY
the larger center of population. which
is at once the commercial, social, edu-
catiOnal, and industrial center OF It's
region
What is true Of the greater cities
is true Of the lesser ones. the differ
ence only being in degree. As these
lesser cities are usually located on
the main lines of travel, they are, IN
themselves, centers Of traffic Of their
respective regions 1t is the traffic
between these lesser cities and that
between them and points adjacent,
which uses the main road for a part d
its journey that forms the major fac
tor in the usefulness Of a main high
way. The long distance trip is also
a factor, but a minor one in import
ance.
