ROADS KEPT I'M GOOD REPAIR
Ten Thousand Miles of Concrete Pave
ment Have Reen Constructed in
the United States.

The amount of concrete pavements
that have been constructed in the
United States-almost 100000
miles of roads 10 feet wide-represent
a public investment of great value.
Because of the advances in wages and
materials, the cost of replacing these
roads would be much greater now
than when originally constructed.
Therefore. there is urgent need that
they be kept in the best possible con-
dition in order that they may render
perfect service.
If attention is given regularly vers
little work is required Il maintain
concrete pavements, and in this man.
ner the danger of having to make
costly repairs later is avoided.

NATIONAL SYSTEM OF ROADS
Philadelphia Board of Trade Asks Sec
rotary Baker to Cooperate in
Construction.

The Philadelphia Board OF Trade
has asked the cooperation Of Secre-
tary Of War Baker in obtaining a ma
tlonal system of highways 10 accommo-
date the large and growing motortruck
traffic. This method Of transportation
has done much TO solve the congestion
on the railroads, but men all over the
country agree that L crazy-quilr road
system has impaired the efficiency of
the mot0rtrucks at least 40 per cent.
1t is estimated that the 100000 motor
trucks in the country are used to only
60 per cent of their capacity; or, in
other words. If 2SO,0O0 motortrucks
were used to their full capacity we
would be obtaining as much service as
We are now getting out Of 100000.
At The last meeting of the Philadel-
phia Board OF Trade, Niers Busch,
chairman of the municipal affairs COM
mittec, advocated a national system of
motor roads extending from Boston to
Washington, made of concrete and
wide enough to accommodate four or
FIVE lines of vehicles. This report was
sent to all of the councils of defense
in the different states along the Allan
tic coast, to the governor of each state,
10 the United States Chamber of Com
MERGE, to the war industries board and
10 =. NJ. Baruch, chairman of the War
industries board: and they We're asked
to cooperate with this body in having
congress adopt such a system as a war
measure, and TO hay his system put
