The interest in New England in the Chicago meeting will be particularly strong for the reason that the New England roads will be discussed as models for other states. Massachu- setts roads, especially, will come in for discussion for Massachusetts was a pioneer in the good roads movement and was the first state in the Union in which road surveys were made, the highways of the Massachusetts Bay Colony having been surveyed in 1639. Rhode Island leads the states of the Union in good roads with a per- centage of 58.8. Massachusets is sec- opd with 51.7 per cent. In New Jer- sey the percentage of good roads to the whole is 30.3 and in New York it is 27.9. Eastern states, particularly Maine, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Ver- mont have authorized county bond is- sues lately for road work amounting to $42,000,000, paving the way fér a vast amount of road work during the coming spring and summer that will afford relief for the condition of unemployment in which unskilled la- bor in this part of the country now finds itself. The American Roads Builders’ as- sociation. the oldest and largest good road organization back of the move- ment for better highways through- out the United States and Canada has long been urging upon the leg- islatures of the eastern states, more extensiye legislation .in the interest of better highways.

The meeting will bring together from ever: pari of the count-y. the practical and scientific men identified with highway construction and main- tenance,—the men who will be re- sponsible for the expenditures of vast sums available for highway work. There they will discuss from every angle the many problems connected 'with the construction, administra- tion. financing and maintenance of national, state, county and city high- ways. The exposition of labor-savinz road-building and higchway trans- rorta‘ion machinery and pavinz ma- terials will occupy more than 40,000 square feet of floor space. From the number of exhibits already entered, the show this year promises to sur- pass by far in number and variety of exhibits the big exposition held by the association in former years at Pittsburgh, St. Louis, Boston, Cin- cinnati.
