States Planning Roads
On nLong-Range Basis,
Conqress Here Is Told

Long-range highway planning on
sound basis is the great objective
of the states, the Highway Trans
portation Congress was told today.
The congress is in session here at
the Mayf1ower Hotel under the aus
pices of the National Highway Users
Conference. The meeting was to
end today.
A panel discussion on Getting the
Job Done in the States" developed
consensus that the state con-
ferences of highway users should
turn their attention to the big job
of planning for the future.
Col. M. S. Aldrich, chairman of
the West Virginia Highway Users
Conference, said his organization
intends to formulate a plan which
will consider "the needs for all
classes of roads and which will be
based on the ability of taxpayers
to foot the bill"
Surfacing Needed.
r. Flake Shaw, representing the
North Carolina Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton, said a large part of his State
now has rural roads that are i'm
passible for several days in the
winter.
What we need" he said, "is sur
faced roads passable every day in
the year for our school buses, rural
mail carriers and milk trucks"
Speakers also recounted advances
in protecting the taxes from high
way users from diversion to non
highway purposes.
Alfred P. Sloan, jr., General
Motors chairman who relinquished
the Craftsmanship of the National
Highway Users Conference today,
received additional tributes for his
service.
President Paul F. Douglas of
American University pointed out in
a luncheon address that Lenin en-
tered the Kremlin at about the same
time Mr.. Sloan entered General
Motors. To the question of how So
ciety should be organized around
the mode of production, DR.. Douglas
said, Lenins answer was politics.;
Mr.. Sloan's answer was Industry"
Auto Output Compared.
Since then, the university presi-
dent said, the American people
have come to operate annually
100000 motor vehicles over 3,0O0,-
900 miles of roads with deprecated
value of 100000, 600; the Soviets,
100000 motor vehicles on 10000
miles of roads,"
The Congress had before it today
a warning that, in the interest of
national defense, it must continue
to prod officials in Fastening COM
pletion of the projected 4O,0O0-mile
interstate high way system.
The admonition came from Ar
thur M. Hill, chairman of the Ma
tlonal Security Resources Board,
who addressed the congress last
night in the MayfoWer.
One of the mistakes of the early
days OF World War II was failure

to realize the full importance Of
highway transportation in support
ing q wartime economy" Mr.. Hill
declared.
Maintenance Of the highway
transportation system in time of an
emergency is imperative. he as
serted. He said also we cannot
assume that highway system ade-
quate for World War II will be
suitable for any future emergency, if
it should develop"
The system of interstate highways
projected for the next Is or 20
years would link centers of national
defense with strategic routes. Mr..
Hill listed some of the questions
about this project which, he said,
must be asked continually.

GOSPEL TALKS
by Rev. r. C. Valentine

Commit thy way unto the Lord;
trust also in Him, and he shall
bring it to pass."-Psalm 37:5.
Life constantly brings many
trials and difficulties. To seek to
bear all these by oneself is to invite
physical and spiritual breakdown.
More and more illness of the body
is being laid to worry, anxiety, and
tension. Many a persons spiritual
growth is stunted by lack of trust.
Books that tell how to stop worry
ing and have peace of mind are best
| sellers today. But the secret of true
| peace has long been in the simple
words quoted above from the an
cient book of the Psalms.
There we are told to roll the
whole burden of life upon the Lord.
All the cares of life can be left with
God. Yield wholly to Him and look
to Him for support and guidance.
Resign your will; submit your judg-
| ment: leave all with God. He is the
great burden-bearer and He is able
to bear you and your burden.
The farmer sows and harrows and
then leaves the harvest with God.
He can do no more for he cannot
cause the rain to fall or the sun
to shine. He does well to leave the
whole matter with God. So all of
us, should commit our ways to God
and leave the results with Him.
"And He shall bring it to pass"
God is not a novice in the art of
governing the world. He can and
will order the affairs and lives COM
mitted to Him. He will accomplish
all that you have laid upon Him by
faith.
Truly committing ones way UNI
to God means casting the burden
of sin upon Him. 1t NEAR trusting
the Redeemer for salvation. 1t
means yielding the whole Of life -
its decisions, problems, trials, and
sorrows = to Him. 1t means con-
tinual trust in Him and confidence
that He will do all things well. Our
destiny will be joyfully accomplish
ed if we confidently trust all to the
Lord.
II dare not choose my lot,
I would not if I might;
But choose Thou for me o my God,
So shall / walk Alright"

LIGHTING SYSTEMS

The latest form of Multiple Beam
system, adopted by almost all
American producers on 1910 mod
els, embodies two beams and a re-
Hector, light source and lens made
into single permanently sealed
unit, as a result of which the lamps
lose only small fraction of their
efficiency throughout their entire
life. About so per cent more light is
projected than by previous systems
and emphasis is placed on use of the
lower or traffic" beam in all places
where there is any movement of
other vehicles, the upper or
country" beam being reserved for
use only on the open highway
where there is no approaching
traffic.
This system has helped reduce
traffic accidents in that the beam
may be lowered sufficiently to pre-
vent the driver from being temper
arily blinded by the glare of APP
preaching head lights. The most
important safety factor where lights
are concerned is the focus. If your
lights have the bear too low you
will not be able to see clearly, if too
high you will not be able to dim
