FOR AUTO HIGHWAY
PUEBLO IS PUSHING HARD FOR A ROAD TO los
ANGELES BY WAY OF THIS OTY--DURANGO AND
SAN JUAN SHOULD Be REPRESENTED AT MEETING

There is every reason to believe
that Durango can be placed OH a
through automobile road to the
Grand Canon and California. The
Herald some time ago gave space to
several letters from John P Dods
of the Automobile Blue Book at Chi
cago regarding trip to this section
on his return from visit to the
Grand Canon. According to letters
received by the secretary of the
Board of Trade the Pueblo Commerce
club through its secretary, Mr. Jenk-
ins, is taking an active part in pro-
noting the proposed road. The Com
merce club is advertising Pueblo as
good road centre by drawing
printed in red ink on its letter heads,
showing five distinct good roads ent-
ering that city, OF diverging from
-Pueblo-one to Galveston, second
to Kansas City, third to San Fran
cisco by Grand Junction, fourth
to the north and fifth to Los An
geles via Durango, Durango being
designated on the proposed route. AS
shown by previous letters published
from Mr.. Dods, he wants to make the
trip to the Grand Canon and a late
letter says he hopes to be in Durango
the last of September or first of
October. Now comes a letter from
the Pueblo people stating a good
roads meeting will be held in Pueblo
on the oath and 25th of this month
which will be attended by Mr.. Dods
western portion of the state. Durango
should have one or two delegates at
this meeting. Between the state and
counties this part of the state is
spending good deal of money for
good roads and we want this fact well
advertised along with our scenic at
Mr.. Raymond day or two ago Mr..
Jenkins says some arrangements
should be made to get the Dods party
over the proposed route. Until the
Pueblo meeting the plans of Mr.. Dods
will not be ascertained, but it if pos
sible he may want to visit Durango
after the Pueblo gathering. Owing
to work starting late it does not ap-
pear possible to get over the range
by Way of Paposa with an auto but
we believe arrangements should be
made to have Mr.. Dods make the trip
by private conveyance and have his
auto shipped from Antonita to
Chama. Durango can well afford to
pay for the trip and also the ex-
penses of sending two men to Pueblo.
The total cost will approximate $3.50.
We must not let this opportunity of
having Durango logged as early as
possible in the Automobile Blue Book
as the road will be opened for tour
lists next season in time to receive
the benefit of the Blue Book adver-
tising. A meeting of the directors
of the Board of Trade has been called
for Monday to consider the matter.
Let Durango and southwest Colo
RADIO get busy. Pagosa Springs
should also be represented at the
meeting and Aztec and Pennington.

Gentlemen:
Some thirty days ago we received
assurance that Mr.. John p. Dods
publisher of the Automobile Blue
Book at Chicago, would positively ac
cept our invitation to log roat
from Pueblo through southwestern
Colorado to the Grand Canon, oi
rather, that he would log the SAINT;
Fe Trail to Grand Canon and log i;
road back to Pueblo by way of Du
range, the San Luis valley and Ii
Veta Pass. The Rainbow Route tC
the western slope will be completed
about the same time and we expect
to have a celebration in Pueblo ir
honor of these two events. We are
inviting representatives of the vari.
Gus trails shown On the margin OF
this sheet to meet here, inspect the
Rainbow Route contiguous to Pueblo
and have such a celebration as will
obtain publicity for southern Colo.
rado. A strong effort is being made
to divert good roads sentiment to the
north of us and we of southern Colo
RADIO must exert ourselves to hold oui
own.
Especially should your people be
interested in the new Spanish Trail
Ii you expect to get a new trail tc
southwestern Colorado, it must be
obtained by the individual efforts OF
your people and it is our opinion that
each county along the Spanish Trail
and in any way contiguous to the
Spanish Trail should have representa-
tives in Pueblo, arriving on the af-
ternoon of the 24th of September at
which time we can effect a perman-
ent organization to be known as the
Spanish Trail association or any other
name that your people may wish to
give to this highway. l have given
it this name simply as a starter,
taking the name because of it being
appropriate.
We would appreciate it very much
if you would use the. influence of
your valuable paper with your peo-
pie in creating sentiment for this
movement. Mr.. Dods is a man who
can give great deal of publicity to
your section of the state. We had
him in the state last year and the
publicity received for the western
slope could not be purchased for $10.-
900. He comes with special pub
licity man and with an expert pho
tographer from New York. The eff
forts that we have put forth in Sc
curing his services for southwestern
Colorado should receive a ready re-
sponse from your people. You should
meet him in Pueblo, confer with him
and render him every assistance pos
sible in order that the publicity for
your section may be to your liking.
Yours very truly,
