Misleading Road Information
Tombstone Prospector

In a recent issue of the Los An
geles Times in the automobile sec
ton of that paper an article ap-
peared which had a very mislead-
ing headline, which read South
ern Route Poor -
This article went on to say that
Gross country motorists over the
Santa Fe Trail this year will find
it in the worst condition it has
been in years. " We don't know
whether this statement is so, but
we take exception to the heading
Southern Route Poor, y because
the Santa Fe route is not the south
ern route, and the entire article,
on account of its headline, becomes
misleading in its entirety. The
southern route is the Borderland
Route, which runs from FL Paso
to the coast, and the Borderland
Route is better than it has ever
been and daily getting better 1t
is being paved in many sections
and being built along standard
lines in many other places, and
provision is being made to build it
standard from one end of Arizona
to the other. The Borderland
Route has been adopted as the FL
Paso to the coast outlet by many
eastern roads, including the Old
Spanish Mission route, Dixie Over
land Highway and the Evergreen
Highway, and others, and is the
only all southern route and the line
of low grades, short distances, and
is bridged all the way, something
no other route can offer that crosses
the Great Divide. The Times man
should post up on road conditions
in Arizona if he is to keep abreast
