WHAT 1T is COSTING THE UNI
TED STATES TO IMPROVE ITS
HIGHWAYS, AND WHAT 1T GETS
IN RETURN.

Washington, d. c., July 19.-Ap-
proximately $2O6OOO,OOO was spent
last year on public roads in the Uni
ted States, according to statistics
prepared by the L. S. Department Of
Agriculture. In 1904 the total was
only $79,O00,O00. In nine years, there
fore, the increase has been over 25O
per cent.
This awakening on the part of the
country to the importance of good
roads has, experts say, been due in
great measure to the principle of
state ard to seunties. and other leeal
communities. New Jersey began the
movement in 1891 when it passed its
state highway law. Massachusetts,
and Vermont followed a year later,
but for the most part the other states
were slow to move. In 1904 only fiji
teen had state highway departments.
Today there are only six that have
not. In 1918 the individual states
appropriated a total of $9S,755,OSS to
supplement local expenditures,
The value of this state aid is, how.
ever, not to be measured by the fig

comes, and always must come, from
the counties and townships. Thus
in 1912, the cash outlay by counties

tice prevails. Last year, therefore,
local communities contributed, in
round numbers, one hundred and SIX
ty-six millions Of dollars, as against
appropriations from state treasures
of $3S,755,0SS. The true importance
of this thirty-eight millions lies in
the fact that it means expert super
vision of the expenditure of a con
siderable portion of the vast sum of
two hundred millions. When each
county built as It chose and when ii
chose. the services of trained engin-
GERS were usually out of the cues
ton. There was little opportunity to
test innovations, little advance in the
science of road-building, and there
was also difficulty in arousing each
county individually to do its best to
improve conditions within its own
limits. State aid has changed all
this The best engineering skill is
available for all works of Importance,
there is cooperation and a constant
stimulus to further improvements.
They money contributed by the states
does mot only build more roads, bul
it makes better those that other
money builds.
At the present time, there are in
the United States 2O,741 miles OF
roads improved either wholly or IN
: Part by state aid. This is. nearly
the mileage of the French routes ma
tlonales, the system of great nationa
highways which is the envy of every
civilized nation. The routes nation
ales are, of course, only a small por
ton of the total mileage of France
where practically every road of any

possible to prove not only that good
roads are a profitable investment,
but to determine exactly what divi-
dends they pay. An investigator as
signed to this problem in any given
locality first ascertains the extent OF
the territory that is tributary to any
main road, such as one might ascer-
tain the territory tributary TO some
river. The next step is an accurate
estimate Of the total products OF THIS
| territory: so much grain, so much
| tobacco, so much garden truck, etc 3,
| etc. OF this quantity a certain por-
| ton is consumed Oh the farm; the
rest is shipped over the road in queS-
don. The whole calculation can then
be checked by investigators at the
shipping point to which the road
leads. In general ii has been found
that the two methods Yield much the
same information-the total amount
of produce hauled over the same road
Next, the length of the average haul
is calculated the size of the lead
permitted by the character of the
road ascertained, and the cost oi
teams and drivers figured. With these
facts before him, the investigator is
now able to state positively the cos
of hauling a ton Of produce on that
road, to express i'll terms of these
"ton-miles" the freight traffic on The
road, and finally the total cost tC

with these data, it is easy to decide
how much money can be profitabl>
srent in improving the road, aDt
what are the returns that the invest
ment yields to the community.
Those returns are of various kinds
First and foremost is the reduction

fact that it takes less time and labo

over a poor one. Loss obvious is The

INDUSTRIAL PROBLEM
is BEING CONSIDERED

The plans of the high schools of the
state to study the problem of the man
ner in which the schools may increase
the industrial efficiency of their re-
spective communities, has been ap-
proved by the faculty of the Univer-
sity of Utah, This problem has led
several OF the high schools of the
state to an adjustment Of the school
year to the needs Of tho industries by
which their communities are sup
ported.
In some communities il has become
common practice TO declare vacations
during tbe beet and other harvest sea-
sons TO give the pupils au opportunity
to be industnally useful. These yaca-
ton periods have in the main been
made up by Saturday sessions. This
has led to some, complaints from the
housewives that their daughters are
needed on Saturdays to assist III the
home work. In view of the com
plants, it is now suggested that the
school year be shortened 10 seven and
one-half months, with school sessions
six days in each week.

never before been given to Salt Lake,
is planned to take place in few

The plans are as yet Indefinite, but
it is proposed TO hold a meeting of
those interested next Wednesday and
at that time vigorous efforts will be
made to launch the proposition. The
general plan adopted in the east for
cleanup campaigns Will in all probabl-
ity be followed In the east, trash is
cleaned up from yards, and unsightly
fences and sheds are given a coat Of
paint. The vacant lots will also re-
ceivc attention and the city will be
benefited thereby.

the University of Utah. was an ardent
advocate of the cleanup campaign"
but since he left for West Virginia to
take up educational work he has been
succeeded in the work by Mr.. Sconberg
and Mr.. Shepherd.
