Judge Lovett Endorses Impor-
tance of Building National
Highways.

Judge Il. S. Lovett, chairman of the
war industries board, in letter to the
Manufacturers Record of Baltimore,
in regard to the position which we
have taken as to the necessity of de-
velopig highways. writes
81 appreciate quite as much as you
or any one else can the importance Of
highways. If there were sufficient
open top cars to provide for highway
material, for coal and other essential
commodities, the order criticized
would not have been made. But when
there are not enough; when we are
forced to n choice as between high
way material and coal essential for
war industries and domestic and other
essential uses. can there be any diff
ference of opinion as TO which shall
be preferred: That was the cause
had to determine.
The order OF course, Is an emer-
rency measure. IL will not be con-
tinued in force day longer than alb
solutely necessary"
The Manufacturers Record greatly
appreciates the opportunity OF pub
lishing this vigorous statement from
Judge Lovett in regard to the i'm
portance of highways. and to the fact
that the order which he issued ls an
emergency measure to be dlscortiD-
ued Just as soon as possible. 1t would
have been most fortunate If when this
order was issued the official an
nouncement had been made that 1t
was wholly an emergency measure. to
bc discontinued as soon as possible
Judge Lovetts statement of the
case will do good from many points OF
view. IL will show to the country tha.
there is no desire on the par. OF the
government to halt the building of
highways. bat that on the contrary.
Judge Lovett, who is representing the
government, fully appreciates the
value of highways, and will not keep
the order against the movement OF
highway materials IN force a dav
longer than is absolutely necessary.
