n bile Association.
In consequence of the better roads
campaign which has been in progress
throughout the United States during
the past several years. there is evil
dent a great increase in transcon-
tinental and intersectional automo-
bile travel.
One of the first transcbntinental
highways TO benefit from the popular
demand for improved thoroughfares
was the National Old Trails road.
Only a few years ago this i'm
portant artery was improved for only
a very few miles from its eastern
terminus at Baltimore. AS time
went on its Interstate importance
was recognized successfully by Ohio.
Indiana and Illinois. with the result
that the motorist is now able TO
travel it from the Atlantic seaboard
TO the Mississippi river on first-class
pavement. West of ST. Louis. few
hard surfaced roads will be en-
countered. but the natural earth and
gravel roads are well graded and
dragged. so that they afford good
surfaces during dry weather.
Much the same condition exists
along the Lincoln highway, although
in this case there are still some In
diana and Ohio stretches that have
not been surfaced. Illinois paved
her section with concrete last year.
so that within another year or two it
will be possible TO travel from New
York TO Clinton. Ia. over continu-
Gus macadam and concrete.
The eastern extension of the yell
lowstone Trail from Boston to Chi
cago via Albany. Buffalo and Cleve-
land likewise affords good pavement
practically throught.
Roads Reasonably Good.
Whichever route is followed west
of the Mississippi river viii depend
partly on the season, but mostly on
the ultimate destination.
W1thou- doubt the National Old

cause it is most direct. affords good /
road conditions and is exceptionally |
provided with satisfactory hotels.
Even without these advantages it
would be a favorite because of the
it affords for visiting
he Grand Canyon, the prehistoric
sliff dwellings and the petrified
Iorest.
The Lincoln Highway. though rea-
ionably satisfactory as regards road
urfaces, is distinctly inferior as 10
1otels and scenery, because it passes
through an unusually desolate Sec
ion OF Wyoming, Utah and Nevada.

thence through a wonderfully scenic
section of Colorado to Salt Lake

Last but by no means least in this
catalog of cross-country routes, are
those leading into the northwest,
affording visits 10 Yellowstone,

Parks. the Columbia River Highway

The two principal highways from

and National Parks Highway. They
are roughly parallel throughout

Intense rivalry exists between the
respective supporters of these two
roads. with the result that they both
provide a very good average of road
conditions as well as a profusion of
camp sites and fairly good hotels.

CROSSING ATLANTIC
Germans Say Feafs Are Due
to Treaty Curfailing Motors.

BERLIN, Aug. 20 ASSOCIATED Prcss) -
The recent success of German student
aviators in motoriess aviation at Gers
field has given rise TO widespread graft
fication. Scientists already are discuss
ing the likelihood of such aircraft cross
ing the Atlantic. Observers of the past
weeks experiments note that the results
have provided a literal as well as figura-
tive application of the old proverb 1T
is an i'll wind that blows nobody good"
These observers assert that If the
Versailles Treaty had not limited the
size of German aerial motors this scen-
tific development in aviation would not
have occurred so soon. They find fur
ther significance in the fact that the
new sail planes utilize vertical winds
which are foes to the present motor
fliers.
The machine with which the students
Maertens and Hertzen made their rec
ords at Gersfeld was so constructed that
structural safeguards were provided
against the ship itself gyrating in "a
whrlwind. The propeller was so ar
ranged as TO be used TO the utmost for
the attainment OF speed only. while
horizontal winds served to give the ship
carrying power. The present speed of

The public enthusiasm which char
acterized the greeting given Marshal
Won Hindenburg at Munich yesterday
has again aroused French alarms over
a German reactionary fermentation
which Is likely to involve the whole
of Europe.
The Temps tonight points out that
while Marshal Won Hindenburg is urg-

selves for defense, Gen. serekt is busy
installing military systems in Upper
Silesia and the Soviets are prohibiting
the expectation from Russia of arms,
explosives. airplanes, automobiles and
even carrier pigeons-measures invari-
ably taken as being preludes to war,
Dispatches to THE NEW York HERALD
from Berlin have referred to large
purchases of army stocks by agents
for unknown principals.
The Temps puts up this argument
against the contention OF London news
papers that the present French military
strength and expenditures are ncces-
sary. and says further that in order
10 protect European safety the French
budget is only 5.50o,00Q.0oo francs. while
the British. who profess not to believe
In any such danger, are voting budget
of oO0,oO0,ooO francs and are spend

Cuba is on the high road to business
recovery and political tranquility, and
financial stability OF the Island Republic
is promised as result OF the action of
the reform element in accepting the re-
construction legislation framed with the
aid OF Gen. Crowder.
Five measures of reconstruction and
reform for Cuba are about TO be enacted
into law. Secretary Hughes declares
which has already passed tho lower
house. viii stabilize the financial and
business conditions Of the republic.
The five measures, Secretary Hughes
believes. go to the root OF the evil which
has afflicted Cuba for many years.
They provide for the consolidation Of
departments on business basis, for a
better system Of accounting. more re-
sponsibility In expenditures and for the
amendment of the judicial code to make
the removal Of members of the judiciary
easier when there is cause for their re-
moval.
The flfth and last bin on the pro-
gram provides for the contracting of
Of Cuba, also to make a start on neces-
sary public works. provision being made
at the same time for revenue to pay
the loan.
No mention is made of Gen. Crowder
in the statement issued by Secretary
Hughes. which says in part:
'Advices received from Cuba fndi-
cate substantial progress toward
definite and satisfactory solution. The
confusion, resulting from the many
grave and complex problems that have
arisen during the last year, is APP
parently being dissipated> in definite
program by the leaders of Cuban politi-
cal and financial life, a program whose
proper execution will constitute an i'm
portant step in carrying out proper
and necessary policy of reconstruction
and reform.
THE program includes the passage
and execution of five fundamental meas
ures. First. a bill providing for the
modification OF certain provisions OF the
civil service law and the suspension OF
others, which will enable the Executive
TO organize rapidly and effectively all the
Executive departments, and particularly
the service of collecting revenues and
controlling Expenditures; second. bill
providing for better and stricter sys-
tenn of accounting: third, bill creating
g. special commission for the investiga-
ton and precise definition of the Gov
ernment's floating Indebtedness: fourth,
bill rendering more effective certain
portions of the judicial procedure and
facilitating the removal OF members OF
the judiciary fifth, bill evolved from
and based upon the financial program
recently proposed by the Secretary of
the Treasury. providing for the contrac-
ton of a foreign loan for the settlement
OF the floating indebtedness and the in
itiation of the public works, together
with the creation of new taxes for the
service of loan.
