wide work now so much needed. Re
ports received by the department
show that highway construction as
an immediate means OF absorbing
labor has been undertaken In for.
eign countries on scale much great
er than that represented in the pro-
gram of the U. s. government, II
comparative area and population are
taken into consideration.
A comparison Of the appropria-
tions of England and France with
those of this country is Of interest.
While congress has made available
$50, 100000 for expenditure in 1919
land a total of s275,OOO,OOO up to
and including the fiscal year of 1918
this money will be available on all or
any part of the 2,50O,00O miles Of
rural highways in the United States.
Against this figure, France Is con-
centrating its fund Of 1852, 900, 900
on $1,000 miles of national high
ways Of which large percentage has
already been improved, leaving the
departments and sub-departments TO
carry on the work in the less i'm
portant systems. The total road
mileage in England Is 10000 miles
and aside from the $1,000, 900 ap-
propriated by the national govern
ment, at least as much more will be
set aside by shires and munlcipali-
TIPS.
In the matter OF hard surfaced
highways. both France and England
are far ahead of this country In road
building as a result Of continued gov
ernment expenditures on national
systems while Prussia alone had 75.-
900 miles OF hard surfaced roads !
previous to its entry into the war
In proportion to size. the United |
States would need 1.611,914 miles Of
hard surfaced ways to rest on a par
ity with Prussia, altho close esti-
mates show that only one-quarter Of
one per cent or $3.50 miles of our
highways are hard surfaced at the
present time.
Estimates prepared by engineer
ing authorities show that the United
States could we'll afford to spend
81 ESQ, 100000 on a hard surfaced
system of $4,000 miles which could
