BOULEVARD SYSTEM
FAVORED FOR STATE
Sasscer to Offer Bill to Require
Full Stop at Main Roads

Special Dispatch TO The star
BALTIMORE, January Ie.-As hou-
leyArd system for the main highways of
the State as well as for city streets
under which traffic entering from cross
roads or side streets will be required to
come to q full stop will be embodied in
bill to be offered In the Legislature
next month by State Senator LanSdale
q. Sasscer of Prince Georges County.
The bill will be sponsored by John N.
Mackall, chief engineer of the State
Roads Commission who said that the
system would eliminate the right-of-
way practice, which he considered a
menace.
In commenting on the proposed legis-
lation, Mr. Mackall said:
"A bill which failed at the last ses-
sion of the Legislature designated the
State Roads Commission to decide what
roads in the counties should be classi-
fed as boulevards. while that power
was given to the Police Department In
the cities.
The boulevard system as proposed is
expected to speed trafic on main high
ways, at the same time forcing the
driver to be more attentive to operation
of his automobile"

obstacle to the spread of motor trans
port has been the lack OF adequate
road communications. Especially IS
this true in Central and South Amer
lea. where much of the terrain Is 20
rugged or tropical that highway con-
struction and maintenance Is extremely
difficult and costly. Efforts are, how
ever, being made to construct one link
after another in the chain OF commit
nication which Is gradually bringing
the Latin American countries closer to-
gether. In Colombia four great high
ways are being constructed, which will
soon supplant the steep and tortuous
mule trails crossing the high mountain
passes from the Magdalena River to
the Pacific and make Bogota readily
accessible from the West Coast by mo-
tor transport. At the same time q mo-
tor highway is being completed to the
Venezuelan frontier, whence a good
motor road constructed by the Vene-
Euelan government extends all the way
to Caracas. Medillin is also securing a
new outlet over its highway to the
sea" on the Gulf of Darfen.
Argentina Is launching $3.50, coo, 900
road building program. Brazil is push
ing work on important projects for
completion in time for the Pan-Ameri-
next July Panama has also begun
work on a program of extensive road
construction which will open up the
interior to economic development.
Honduras, Costa Rica and the other
Central American republics are also
launching road building programs. AS
the chief obstacle to the sale of Amer
lean cars in all of these countries has
been the lack of good roads on which
to drive them. our exports to Latin
America should receive a marked i'm
petuS from this wholesale construction
of highways.
Motor Taxes Applied to Highways.
Improved methods of financing have
done much to promote the construc-
ton of highways in Europe. Modern
practice in this regard tends toward
the segregation Of automotive revenues
from the general budget Of the coun-
try and the assignment of them for in
terest and amortization of highway
bonds. In this. way taxation need not
be so high and favorable results in in
creased road construction are obtained
at once. ,. 80. Sc.
Czechoslovakia, Hungary and Ger
many. among others. have recently
enacted laws for the issue of highway
bonds, so that all parts of their ter
ritory. may be developed as quickly Is

Special Dispatch TO The STAR
BALTIMORE, January Econ
struction of secondary State highway
system Of Stag roads, which can be built
at a cost much less than concrete, is
advocated by the Eastern Shore county
commissioners.
John W. Mumford, president of the
association, Is sponsor of the Stag roads
plan. He says the cost will be much
lower and the annual construction of
county roads by the State could be tri-
pied with no additional expense.
From what engineering authorities
say" said Mumford, 1.-THE expenditure
of $4,000 a mile for concrete roads in
the counties is not justified unless 800
or more vehicles pass over it in day
THE funds for construction of the
proposed Stag roads would be taken, of
course, from the money now used to
build the concrete lateral and post
roads.
Practically all of our county roads in
this class have been constructed of con-
crete, and row the counties are desir-
Gus. Of increasing. the mileage Of our
otifer roads, which would not be posi-

and that the motor parts it measures

Thousands of snap gauges and

ter gauge. Another of the many
gauges checks the taper Of Nash
rear axles. 1t is a simple instrument
which contacts the large and small
sections of the taper, and registers
any inaccuracy to half thousandth
inch. Its use explains why no Nash
car is ever seen with wobbly rear
wheels according to engineers.
At every possible point IN manu-
featuring, the skill, ability and feel
of the operator has given way in
the Nash plants to the more depend
able and less difficult action of
checking gauges. Each Nash work
man becomes an Inspector of his own
handiwork, and every part is checked
for accuracy at the time Of machin-
ing. In addition, large corps of
trained inspectors are employed to
make counter checks on all parts of
the cars. The finished product, obvi-
ously, attains the highest degree of
mechanical perfection.
