URGES RESUMING ROAD WORK
President Favors Earliest Possible Re-
sumption Of Highway Construe..
tion-His Letter.

prepared by United States Department
Of Agriculture.)
President Wilson favors the earliest
possible resumption and extension of
highway construction under the fed
eral aid road act and has written Sec
rotary of Agriculture Houston to that
effect. The secretary Of war also has
written the secretary Of agriculture In
favor Of highway work. H.,
The presidents letter follows: "
"Dear Mr.. Secretary:
II heartily agree with you that 1t
would be in the public interest to re-
sumo in full measure the highway con.
struction operations under the federal
aid road act, and to do so as speedily
as possible. I understand the neces-
sity which existed for their cOntrac-
ton during the stress through which
we have been passing, but that obsta.
Gle is now removed. believe that 1t
would be highly desirable to have an
additional appropriation made availa'
BILE to the department of agriculture,
to be used in conjunction, If possible,
with any surplus state and community
funds, in order that these operations
may be extended. It is important not
only to develop good highways
throughout the country as quickly as
possible, but it is also at this time es-
pecially advisable to resume and ex'
tend all such essential public works,
with a view to furnishing employment
for laborers who may be seeking new
tasks during the period Of readjust-
ment. Knowing that the department
of agriculture and the state highway
authorities in each state have been
carefully working out road systems
and developing plans and specifca-
lions, I have no doubt that all activi-
ties in this field can be vigorously con-
Quoted through these two sets of exist
ing agencies, acting in full accord.
BEAUTIFULLY yours,
WOODROW WILSON,"
The following letter has been re-
ceived from Secretary Of War Baker:
my Dear Mr.. Secretary:
II am in full agreement with your
view that there should not only be q
prompt resumption OF road construc'
ton under the federal aid road act,
and under such further authority as
may exist for separate state action, but
also that additional funds should be
made available to your department for

Some Results of
Packard
1907 Var Work

Figures released for publication at
the close of hostilities show that the
Packard Trucks on the fighting fronts
numbered 1000 more than the trucks
Of any other make.
Over four and half million pounds
of freight and express for the Packard
Company were carried by Packard
trucks during the past year. Exactly
3,6oo Packard vehicles were sent to
consignees under their own power
which, with the freight and express
transportation noted, released at least
1000 freight cars to haul the mountains
of war materials so desperately needed
abroad. This Is a very substantial re-
alization of the slogan "Save Freight
Car for Uncle Sam," by those who
originated it.
The truck transportation included
work for the government as well as for
the Packard Company, and frequently
trucks were used in transporting ma
terial on urgent calls to points as much
as 400 miles distant. Over 5000 of the
trucks sent overland were for army use,
and many Of them carried three tons of
merchandise to the port of debarkation.
The value of this relief to the rail-
roads by this freight movement over tho
highways cannot be comprehended in
ton miles. for large measure of it was
achieved at the very time when weather
conditions last winter practically block
AIDED the great munition carrying lines.
1t was just year ago December 18th
that the first train of 80 Packards set
out overland for Baltimore. They left
in 2-below-zero weather and contended
with snow-filled roads all the way to
the sea.
A cut of s0% in gasoline consump-
tion, as a result of accurate cost
keeping, Is reported by one express
company employing feet Of twelve
Packard Trucks.
The saving covers the three months
Of the Packard Truck Efficiency Test,
and all costs were recorded on the
National Standard Truck Cost Sys-
tenn, as perfected by the Truck Owners
Conference.
The National Standard Truck Cost
System is the cost-accounting method
adopted from the combined experience
Of several of the largest makers Of
trucks.
1t is complete, exact, impartial
applicable to any truck and any busi.
