Paved Route, Washington,

ROUTE THROUGH CHATTANOOGA
Road Is OF Primary Importance to
Each \state and Its Completion
WIN BE Big Factor in
Fq' ther Development.

Despite Ae fact that this Is the
motor age, nat the automobile has
been universal " adopted as the high
way vehicle, nd that federal, state
: and county aga >cies have for several
: years accelerate road building, actual
touring experien e shows that there
has not been dew pped single trans
continental road making an automo-
bile trip from fAhst to coast pos
sibllity at all tip es. In order to make
such trip pi jsible throughout the
year a prograj Is now taking shape
under the aus ices OF the Lee High
way associatij 4 assisted by the Amer
ichn Automob (e association.
Most Feasible Route.
AS result of this cooperation, the
federal g9yernment. through the
United Stat j. bureau Of public roads.
and the sts les Of virginlaa Tennessee,
Arkansas, }Oklahoma. Texas, New
Mexico. Arizona and California,
through Z lelr state road departments,
are now engaged In the selection Of
the mos8 direct feasible route from
Washington, d. c.. to San Diego, Cal.
Subsequently effort is to be concen-
trated for the speedy completion OF
all unfinished sections, and for the
systematic maintenance and the Wild
ening and strengthening OF the pave
ment as required by the volume and
character Of the traffic the pavement
will be required to carry.
Already the route has been selected
.%r cl,t
onal down the valleys of Virginia and
Tennessee through Roanoke Bristol
and knoxville to Chattanooga. The
next step Is to fix the route from
Chattanooga to San Diego.
Statement by Johnson.
In statement relating to the Lee
highway, Director General johnson
says: "From practically every county
seat in the series Of counties between
the national capital and San Diego
the city pavement extends consider
able distance in either direction. and
In many sections the pavement is
continuous for q hundred miles or
more. This series Of pavement Is now
to be connected The road Is Of pri-
mary Importance to each state, and
Its completion Will be main factor
In the further development Of the
state. 1t is road of great local I'm
pOrtance to a series OF towns and
cities stretching across the continent
and the connecting Of these various
sections Of pavement will he prime
factor In the further development Of
the nation. since 1t will facilitate In
terstate travel and promote the free
commingling Of the peoDle of the
East and the West. 1t will probably
be shorter than any other Southern
transcontinental highway and can
therefore be completed more quickly.
Within the next three years, and pos
'sibly sooner. there Is every reason to
anticipate modern motorway be-
tween the capital city Of the nation
and southern California;
The Lee Highway association Is one
OF the youngest Of such organizations.

months ago. G. IT. Huston. assistant

make Ignition more certain and COM
bustion more complete by providing
two points in each cylinder at which
sparkling takes place simultaneously
The extra plug Is connected directly
with the regular plug and is so in

KEEPING SPARK PLUGS CLEAN
Crease and Mineral Dirt Accumulate
on Exterior and Interior Of
the Porcelain.

Many car owners do not realize the
Importance Of keeping the spark plugs
clean. The points Of the plug seldom
need cleaning, but grease and mineral
dirt do accumulate on the exterior
and Interior of the porcelain, so that
the current passes that way instead
of jumping the gap as intended The
plugs should be kept clean or ignition
troubles will result.

To close up the pedal slots in floor

EROM Paris comes the prediction
that the conference on the
economic rehabilitation Of Europe will
be postponed until May, and shifted
probably from Genoa to Rome, Milan
or Verona. The reasons advanced are
the delay In forming new Italian
government, the InSlstence OF France
on 81 preliminary meeting to decide
on the ngrnda. and the alleged fact
that the United States will not de.
tcrmine the extent OF It's participation
ingtOn conference treaties
The German delegation to the con,
ference, which will be headed by Dr.
Walther Rnthenau, foreign minister,
will be armed with elaborate nrg,i.
ments to prove that the repnratlons
clauses in the treaty OF Versailles must
be abandoned or radically altered II
the financial salvation OF Europe is
to be accomplished. Rathcnnu's idea
Is that the interests OF all will be best
served II there is almost complete
cessation Of payments during 1922 ana
II Germany Is permitted to pay in
goods and work instead Of cash.
