A BIG NATIONAL
N HIGHWAY VISION

The plan OF the Bureau OF Public
Roads for new highway system has
been submitted to Congress with the
approval OF President Roosevelt. The
House Roads Committee has already
started work to provide ways and
means TO start the creation OF what
will eventually become 26,7O0 miles
of inteF-linked highways.
The Federal highway program con-
templates an interregional network,
using present routes to a large ex-
tent, and carrying them directly thru
large cities by construction OF "de-
pressed" thoroughfares-main arter-
les running in canal-like lanes below
the level of ordinary street traffic.
Federal Highway Authority has
Leen proposed in a bill by Chairman
Cartwright of the House Roads Com
mittee.
East-and-west routes would run
from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
North and south roads would run
from northern to southern boundar-
les Of the nation. Ali the country is
included in the big plan.
ne pOWef Oi tne highways Tor So
cial and economic gain is unfulfilled.
Twenty years more will see a further
vast improvement in the rural high
ways; and in the streets of our cities,
a beneficial alteration greater still
will be added to motor vehicles in
The quality and economy of their per-
This. will arise from the
advances of recent years.
The Bureau of Public Roads feels
that the highways should catch up
with the progress of the motors.
With vehicles and roads improved |

contribution to the ma
