concern have suspended so that al.

THAT ROOSEVELT HIGHWAY.
Protest OF The Diamond Drill Against
Lig-zagging Nets Response.

The protest of The Diamond Drill
published two weeks ago, against the
zig-zagging Of the Roosevelt Highway
through the Upper Peninsula has met
with considerable comment and In
most cases the comment agreed with
the protest made in these columns.
However, in order that we may not
be misunderstood. The Diamond Drill
wishes TO say at the outset that It's
protest was in no way prompted by
the fact that we thought the road
skipped Crystal Falls. Since the ar
ticle was published we have been ad-
vised that Crystal Falls has not been
left OF the highway; that the thing
has been twisted around so that we are
still upon the main line Well, the
more the shame OF il. There isn't any
more reason for running the line back
TO Escanaba than there was for run
ming II north, or. in other words. when
II had been bent sv far north, the
logical way was 10 locate il straight
west along the South Shore through
Marquette, Ishpeming. Nestoria. Even
to IrOnwood.
No, there is no sour grapes in our
protest. The Diamond Drill advocates
not getting something for Crystal
Falls that It really ought not to have
but rather 70 bring about a program
OF road marking over the entire pen
insula that will benefit the peninsula
as whole.
Get US on that, please. No doubt
tourists will come whether a town is
on the marked trail or not. That Is
not the consideration What we want
is to get tourists coming to the pen
insula; all Of the peninsula, not one
corner OF IT,
Now, We still insist that the first
thing that ought 10 be done is to pry
the Dixie Highway out OF the Soc
and extend it on through Newberry
Munisng, Marquette, Nestoria, and
the copper country. The idea OF lead
ing a highway into the peninsula and
not taking IL to the copper country il
like avdertising side show for the
big circus
The Dixie Highway ends at the Soc
as il now stands. There is no reason
in the world for stopping II there. OF
course, everyone wants to see the 500
the big locks and the other attractions
there. Any traveller who comes north
and misses that sight misses some
real thing. But, the 500 isn't the
whole thing to see. There are LOT
of places that ought TO be seen in or
der that the upper peninula be well
undertood.
We still insist that the Upper Pen
insula Development Bureau, the au-
tomobile clubs OF the peninsula and
the road authorities OF the peninsula
should consider this matter and lay
out a plan Of road marking in Clover
land that will advertise this section
TO the very best advantage.
