DOVER, Del, April &.-The recent de-
mand on transportation that is being
relieved by the medium Of the auto
truck has somewhat altered highway
designing and location. Before the high
WAYS were outlined for freight trans
portatlon, grades under per cent. did
not seem 10 be Of serious consequence
or necessarily uneconOmic. With the
creation Of the motor truck carrying
net loads OF from to 70 tons, 10 has
been proven that It Is more clostly to
haul over roads made mp OF heavy
grades than over roads OF low grades.
The area between Trenton and Vii
mlngton Is one Of the greatest indus
trial centres in the country and the pos
slbnlties are practically without limit
Recent meetings I'm Philadelphia have
proposed individual Ideas OF develop
ment for the section between Trenton
and Wilmington, and it has heen shown
that low grade highway Gan be laid
out and constructed between Trenton
and the Delaware line.
u has been suggested that-the greater

be hauled TO and from points between
