Possible and Desirable to Construct
Highest Types Of Surfaces for

faces for the temporary or emergency
movement Of artillery and supplies.
Roads built with asphalt sent over
from England have recently been con-
structed in the rear of the French Bel
GUM front. Roads SO improved gave
far better service than any type here
fofore attempted under the swift and
heavy movements necessitated by the
artillery action which precedes infan-
try attacks. 1t was observed that mo-
tor trucks and gun carriages suffered
no injury in movement over these
hastily constructed asphalt pavements.
while frequent brcakdowns were ex-
perienced when road building was not
attempted.
These experiments being done a
mission including officers Of the Brit
ish and French engineer corps looked
over the paverneEts in the enyirons

years. Among other roads inspected
early in this month was the Trini-
dad asphalt pavement laid on the road
to Versailles which has been carrying
