UAPROVEMENTS FOR KEY WEST ADVOCATED BY THE CITIZEN 1, More Hotels Apartments. Beach and ‘batiag Pavilion. 4 & Gonzaldedent'Sounty and Cty Goverment. ROADS BADLY NEEDED Chairman Edward Martin, of the Senate Public Works Committee, says the United States needs $40,000,- 000,000 worth of new roads to bring its highways up to scratch. This outlay for highways is necessitated by the tremendously increased vehicular traffic using the public highways today, Martin says. The Republican Senator from Pennsylvania says the capacity of our highway system has fallen behind the times. For instance, there are today almost ninety per cent more trucks in operation than there were just eight years ago, at the end of World War II. The estimate is that there are 9,000,000 trucks now in operation, com- pared to 5,000,000 in 1945, : Moreover, the net total of motor vehicles operating each year increases by approximately 3,000,000. Unless highway construction is boosted considerably, the need for better highways will continue to increase at a faster pace than those highways are provided, Perhaps the cost of defense is the main reason many states, and the Federal Government, have not been able to make adequate outlays for. highway construction and maintenance. Regardless of ‘the reason, however, the time is approaching when sometHing must be done and Martin believes that the traveling public should pay for new roads. He estimates that Federal, State and local governments collect over $7,000,000,000 in automobile and truck registration fees alone, and in taxes from the production and sale of automobiles, tires, gas and oil. One plan advanced would be the use of about half of this money each year to bring the nation’s highways up to current needs. In ten years, almost $40,000,000,- 000 would jiitve been spent and the nation’s highways might then be adequate for U. S. needs.
