PERMANENT HIGHWAYS.

The state of Connecticut is faefnx in it's highway department exactly the same conditions that confront Danbury in relation to the construc- tion of highways and the 3Connecti- cut Good Roads association is advo- eating practically the same solution of the problem that Danbury is about to undertake.
 Attorney Charles M Robinson of New Haven, chairman of the legal committee of the association said in brief talk about the highway situa- ton. that the state association strong Iy advised the use of more permanent methods of construction on the trunk highways of the state. At the pres ent time the state has about 300 miles of trunk highway. the greater part of which is waterbound mac adam The state highway depart
 ment finds that the cost of keeping this nnacadan in repair is about $1,000 8 year per mile, necessitatfng g an expenditure of about S9oo,00O a year.
 The cost of constructing waterbound 900 a mile, exclusive Of the prelinlin- ary grading. At the end of five years | the cost of construction and mainten- ance would amount to $11,00O a mile.
 A six-inch surface of concrete would cost the state about $9,5OO a mile, he said, and the annual cost of repairs. for the first five years, at least, would not exceed $50 a. mile. and at the expiration of that time the highway would still be practically as good as when first constructed. l For these reasons, MT. Robinson said, the Good Roads association fa-
 vored permanent construction from the standpoint of economy. UndeT l the present system, he said, the state l highway department found it practi- l ea1Iy impossible to maintain It's pres ent highways and at the same time carry on the construction of new roads, for which there were demands from every part of the state.
