HOOVER ‘HEARS PLANS |i* FOR U. S. POST ROADS Holaday Confers With President on Proposal to Build Great Federal Highway Net. Representative Holaday of Illinois and | Arthur R. Hall of Danville, Ill,, leader | in the national “good roads” muvemem consulted with President Hoover yester- dly ding Mr, Holaday's bill pro- for a nation-wide system of Fed- !rll highways financed by bond issues. The bill, dntroduced last April, now is pending before the House ways and means committee. It would authorize the Government to build, maintain and regulate a colossal system of “post roads” honeycombing the continent. Under provisions of the bill an un- broken chain of direct trunk-line, hard- surfaced highways would span the Na- tion from coast to coast and from border to bord.r. They would be inter- connecting and would link the National Capital, all State capitals and every important city in a unified Federal system. None of the roads would be less than | 20 feet wide, and for at least 25 miles | out of cities of more than 200,000 popu- lation they would be 40 feet or wider, and out of cities of more than 800,000 inhabitants 60 feet or more in width. All raflway grade crossings would be eliminated and uniform traffic rules prescribed. ‘The bill stipulates that construction af the highways would begin simul- taneously in all States. Paved State toads which might be used as links would be purchased from the States. ‘The bill would authorize the borrow- ing of sufficient money on the credit of the United States up to $5,000,000,000 to build the post roads. The present Federal highway act would not be Tepealed. Representative Holaday patterned his bill on the Illinois good roads bond issue measure, originated by Mr. Hall. The latter has collaborated with Mr. Holaday in preparing the Federal bill. Joins Columbu Chain. WLBZ, a 500-watt broadcasting sta- tion in Bangor. Me., has become the seventy-second link in the Nation-wide chain of the Columbia Broadcasting System. It is the only station in the vicinity of Bangor.
