"No permanent road has ever been
constructed or ever will be-" according
to road specialists of the United States
department of agriculture, who ampli.
fy the statement with an appeal for
keeping the road in good repair. The
federal officials claim that the general
impression that there are certain types
of road that are permanent is erroneous.
1t is pointed out that the only thing
about the road that may be considered
permanent are grading, culverts and
bridges and therefore the Washington
authorities assert that "the first and
last commandment toward road main
tenance is to keep the surface well
drained"
