It was largely the reahzatlgn of this fact thltzaused our government to appropriate someé $800,000, 000 to bp spent in the course of the next few years- -for the improve- ment of’ ghwsys to pgrmit a more extended us @of the motor truck. In expending th)s amount, the United; ‘State sis, m reality, buymg a. certain-number of ton-miles-of load earrying ability or’in other wogds highways, the value of which will depend on the amount of material that can be'; transported over them. The return on the investment will be ‘determined not alone by ‘the type and construction of the highways built, but also by the capacity and design of the vehicles operated over them. ~As a first step toward securing the greatest return in trans- portation from the money spent on highway, improvement, the ‘bureau of pubhc roads at Washington has conducted extensive experlments in prder to determine the type of hlghway which will give the largest number of ton-miles of load carrying ability’ per dollar expended. However, the other phase of the problem —that of régulating motor vehicles so’as, to get the greatest tolmage transported with the least damage to the roads— presents much greater difficulties, since the decision rests, not in the hands of a centrally located group of technically in- formed men, but with numerous widely scattered legislative bodies. The ineffectiveness of this arrangement can be sden by the fact that methods of resfrictig motor vehlc]es vary widely in'all parts of the country. . While it is certain that every legislature passmg alaw to establish license fees or restrict trafhc, does so in an earnest effort to conserve the roads, there is a strong. tendency on the part of thos not fully apprised of real facts to-assume that small trucks cause less road wear than.large trucks and that f,hey ehould therefore be favored. - X nently Senator Reed figures thnz Republicin fund sohcltots. in- d ‘of going to men known to have money and to'be repulfliups. should h & bunch of busted democrats ajd get noghing.—Denver der is sent ;fi#m Bee.
