merclal asset to further cclonize and
develop the sparsely settled sections
of the country, and finally. as a de-
fensive military necessity,
That existing roads and bridges,
especially in the sparseIy settled sec
tions OF the middle and far western
states. are absolutely incapable of
meeting present day traffic require
ments, and until modern types of
roads and bridges are constructed,
which will permit the rapid move
ment Of heavy motor cargo vehicles
