A. A. Declares Car Builders Are Crowding Road Build- ers to the Limit Washington, D. C., Feb. 9.— There were 40 motor vehicles reg- istered in the United States in 1927 to every mile of improved highway of every type. The comparative figure for 1926 was 34 motor yebicles to every mile of improved highway of every type. The comparative figure for 1918 was 17 motor, vehicles to every mile of improved highway, showing in the 10-year period an increase of 130 per cent in the number of mo- tor units to every mile of improved aighway. With the maximum load on the improved highways in 1927, each car would have had a space of only 44 yards in which to operate as compared with 52 yards in 1926 and 103 yards in 1918. Road Builders Crowded In making public these figures today, the American Automobile association, acting on behalf of its 958 motor clubs throughout the country, called attention to the se- rious extent to which the Ameri- can car builders and the car own- ers are crowding the road builders of the nation. The A. A. A. figures disclosing the gradual contraction of the avail- able space for car operation on the imprc cd highways of the country is based on the 1927 registration of 23,125,000 motor vehicles and a total of 575,000 miles of improved roads, “The tremendous increase in the ratio of automobiles to the mileage of improved highways,” said Thos. P Henry, president of the A. A. A., “constitutes a situation on which national attention must be kept con- stantly focused if we want to keep car saturation at arm’s length and if highway traffic is to move with @ reasonable degree of dispatch and safety.” The A. A. A, executive declared that the time has come to bring more of the nation’s secondary highways forward for the applica- tion of improvement programs to them as a means of increasing floor space and to relieve congestion on main highways.
