COLOMBIA OFFERS
MOTORISTS TREAT
Cauca Valley Highway One of
Wonders of Pan-Amer-
lean Road.

In motoring southwark through the
famous Cauca Valley in Western Co.
lombia one enjoys series of nagnif1-
cent views and becomes a pioneer
traveller on completed section Of the
great Pan-American Highway.
Starting from Cali, Colombia's me-
tropolis of the West population OF
123,000), the car rolls along the new
sand-clay highway with ease and speed.
On the west the coast range mountains
rise to picturesque heights and domi-
nate the valley for many miles. Con-
siderable coal Is being mined today on
the slopes Of these mountains. Looking
toward the east one sees grazing herds
Of cattle, many Of them sleek and ap-
parently ready for the buyer who comes
along occasionally and makes pur-
chases for the Cali market. Here and
there stands the cottage Of small
farmer; at other places rise large houses
and clumps of trees that grace the
estates of wealthier "hacendados. As
we travel southwark the northward-
flowing River Cauca Is seen. 1t is an
important trade artery, and active with
its f1at-bottom boats. Far to the east
rise the majestic range Of mountains
known as Cordillera Central, whose
peaks seemingly pierce the skies. Again,
we come in contact with the railway
that leads southwark to Popayan. Oc-
casionally, an airplane speeds above us
on its north or south run. SO In pass
ing through the valley one notes four
means Of transit: river, railroad, high
way and airway.
We stop to talk with the friendly
Colombians, and to their questions Of
whittier are we bound, we reply, "On
to Ecuadorl" mo, sehor, no hay
camino para automoviles (there is no
automobile road.'') The farther we
went, the truer we found the advice.
After spending the night at Jamundi,
we proceeded by train next morning
to Popayan, SO miles farther south, the
present terminus Of the Pacific Railway
Of Colombia.
The continuation Of the Cauca Valley
Highway is now in progress, and per-
haps within a year or two the Co
lombian road will tap that of Ecuador,
which was recently completed to Rumi-
chaca on the Colombia Ecuador
boundary.

ROAD BUILDING MUST CONTINUE
OPROTECT EXISTING HIGHWAYS
Curtament of Construction, 1t Is Believed Would Have
Devastating Effect on Present Routes.

Aside from the provision Of Jobs,
road building should continue at its
present pace for the important reason
that the existing investment in high
ways and the methods of transporta-
ton must be protected.
So declared Frederic z. Everett, presi-
dent Of the American Association of
State Highway Offlcials, in discussing
the State and Federal programs for
1882.
Mass production has necessarily been
adopted in road building" said Mr..
Everett, wherein first-stage improve
ment has been given vast mileages. As
rapidly as possible such temporary i'm
provements have been elevated to high
type construction and in the meantime
the roads have been giving q fair de-
gree OF service to the forever increasing
traffic.
ANY curtailment Of construction
would have a devastating effect on the
mileage Of roads now ready for a better
type Improvement. When we see cars
rolling smoothly over even rough road
surfaces We are likely to minimize their
destructive effects. But q road carrv-
ing only 300 cars a day bears O pound
ing burden of from 500 to 1000 tons.
Gravel Is whirled to the four winds.
Low type surfaces crumble under
heavy traffic. A delay of q single year
would cost Government and motorists
amazing sums In high road and car
upkeep costs.
Evening star., 1932-03-13

the Dominion Is destined TO figure more
prominently in future expansion Of the
industry through increased reduction OF
raw materials, as well as the manufac-
ture Of completed vehicles.
He added that Canada should share
with the United States the task OF
teaching other nations the benefits OF
highway transportation.
OF the general trade situation, Mr.
Reeves stated that there has been an
increased demand for new cars, with
sales certain to become more active in
the coming weeks.
There will be an added impetus" he
said, when Mr.. Ford announces his
final program"
Sir Dennistoun Burney. British engi-
neer, who has been driving his radically
designed "rain-drop" streamlined car
through the East and Middle West tc
allow American designers to see it
was center of interest.
in driving on the highways of America
Sir Dennistoun was impressed with the
high average speed possible and the alb
sence Of speed COPS" 1t seems re-
markable to him that during one days
