virginia, refusing to permit his name
~ pe mentioned as department COM
ulahoer IN the election by the state
convention. His letter follows:
Inc department commander should
ueVote his principal time to the Legion
Its work, its growth, its welfare
should command his mind, his heart
ana soul, and should always be upper
most in his daily life. The position of
department commander is a very high
oillce ana it is worthy of the very best
men in the Legion. 1t is Il man-size job,
requiring the very best efforts and the
hardest work to handle il with the
greatest success.
Given commander who would
practically surrender himself TO the
Legion, and who could make its prog.
ress and success his chief aim and
objective during his term of office, we
would see this Legion of ours expand
and grow in membership, influence and
healthy activity almost beyond con
ceptiOn. | am of the sincere cOnvic
ton that if the Legion called a man tc
serve as leader-asking him to give
practically his whole time and provid

proper caliber, consider that call az
leading him to wonderful service
just as serious, as noble and as patri
otic as that which brought him int
uniform against the enemy"

much discussed over all the countr.

STRETCH OF MODEL HIGHWAY
Ideal Section Of Lincoln Road Under
Construction in Lake County,
Indiana, Near Chicago.

A stretch Of model road, to be known
as the ideal section of the Lincoln
highway is under construction in Lake
county, Indiana, to the southeast of
Chicago.
Besides a 40-foot road bed ten inches
thick, designed to carry heavy traffic,
provisions are made for Identification
of the roadside in boulevard fashion.
A lighting system is to be installed
The entire cost will range approx
mately 100000 a mile.
This strip of roadway is centrally
located, as far as traffic on the Lincoln
highway is concerned, and is intended
to serve as model for the gradual
evolution of the entire route as traffic
volume increases. The Lincoln High
way association will provide the funds
required over the usual costs per mile.

BLAST-FURNACE STAG TESTS
Use Of Material for Road construc-
zion to Be Given Test by
Bureau Of Roads.

Blast-furnace Stag as a material for
concrete road construction is to be
thoroughly studied by the bureau of
public roads, United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. With the enor-
nous demand for road-building mate
rial, officials say, economy demands the
use of material close at hand wherever
possible, and the bureau is now con-
Quoting Investigations of different ma.
terials with this in view
Great quantities of Stag are to be
found at blast furnaces In various
parts of the country. Samples from
81 plants have been collected and will
be made into concrete and tested for
resistance to wear, strength, water
absorption and general utility. These
results will be compared with similar
tests made on other materials.
In addition to the laboratory tests Il
is possible that the experiments will
be followed by an Inspection of a
number Of concrete roads built with
Stag as the coarse material. These
roads will be selected in various parts
of the country and the reports. to-
gether with the laboratory tests, will
furnish information which can be
fully relied upon. a.as ....

ed by the bureau In cooperation
with Tennessee officials on q number
OF roads in Davidson county, in which
Nashville is located, shows surprising
facts when compared with a similar
count in 1915. During this period au-
tOmobile registrations have doubled,
while the number of motor vehicles
on the road is five times as great as
in 1915. In 1915 horse-drawn and mo-
tor-vehicle traffic were almost equal
In volume. In 1921 horse-drawn traffic
had decreased only slightly in volume
and constituted 16 per cent Of the traf-
flc, motor vehicles constituting "a per
cent. ~
Observations IN this and other coun-
ties lead to the conclusion that volume
Of traffic may increase in much great
er proportion than the number of mo-
tor vehicles and will also depend to
large degree on the condition Of i'm
provement Of the road and on the eco
n0mic conditions in the adjacent ter
ritory.

that there Is great difference in the
power required Of the engine when a
truck is travelling over different types
OF surfacing, the amount being more
than twice as great on some of the
