manding comprehensive system of High ways and Ee willing to pay the price, the expenditure of this huge apprcpria- tion is dependent upon three things First the supply of highway construc- tion materials; second, the ability of the railroads to furnish enougn cars to trans port this material, and third the ability of engineers and constructors, with the required labor. to handle the construction. These three factors. under present con ditions, are direct limitations on the an- ticipated highway programme.
 "A shortage of road materials will be sure to develop as the 1920 construction is put under way It is estimated that the average cost of our roads for next year will be about s2000o q mile Allowing but 40e tons of materials per ni1e road construction will need not less than 11,- oo0,000 tons of materials, a figure far above the supply now available. The raif- roads at present are seriously overhur~ dened with freight and are unable fo handle even the present amount of trar- fic. The demands upon engineers, con tractors and labor already exceed their ca pacity. With the amount of money willing to be spent more than tripier. and with facilities for spending it less adequate than formerly. it is very doubt
 fui that the programme can be carried out unless measures are adopted to over come these limitations.
 Tn this connection, it is certain that the motor truck will be called on to act as it's own benefactor by hauling the ma-
 terial from the source supply to ths
