STRATEGIC IMPORTANCE
OF LINCOLN HIGHWAY


about the worst going between New
York and San Francisco. What wat
er you found. in a stretch OF over $50
miles, was ~brackish: you couldn't get
decent accommodations IL you want
ed to rest: the heat was terrific.
Nov, in a country that had to
consider the possibilities of invasion,
such a road would probably have been
regarded as a strategic highway. The
central government would have built
1t, without question. That stretch
OF road was of national Importance,
because Ii was a necessary approach
to Ely. a little way across the Nevada
line. which. since the days OF the
Argonauts, has been the point where
overland traffic divided to move down
the Pacific slope in two streams,
northward and southwark.
Utah and Nevada are going TO
join in celebrating the opening Of the
new section. Fifty miles of travel
will be saved. simultaneously bad
spots are 10 be ironed out in Wyo-
