National Defense Council Puts
Request for Repairs Up to
State Council and Local
Authorities.
(From a Staff correspondent.)

Lincoln. Nov. 8-(Special)-The
Nebraska State Council of Defense,
with the aid of the State Highway
commission, is asked by the National
Defense Council to take immediate
steps to put the Lincoln Highway in
usable condition and keep it So"
The communication, from Ge>rge T.
Porter, chief of the section of CO.
operation With states, is that the Lin
coin Highway, running from ocean
to ocean, can be made a useful ad-
junct to railroad transportation. with
the constant increase of traffic across
the country, the transcontinental high
ways are becoming increasingly i'm
portant. Of these the most advanced
is the Lincoln Highway, large Sec
ton of which lies in your state" the
letter reads.
1t is pointed out that auto vehicles
destined for use by the government
Of our allies can be run over the
highway to the seaboard on their own
power, and in so doing can carry
freight, thus making a considerable
saving to the railways.
