PPCHE AUTOMOBILE demands good roads and is most benefited : by good roads. Why shouldn’t it pay for them? According to official reports there are five automobiles for each mile of improved highway in this country. The Government balletin says: “The development of automobile traffic upon public highways within the pest decade is perhaps the most significant in-|. fluence affecting the road problem since McAdam’s time. The num- ber of automobiles, including commercial vehicles, registered in the] [4 United States in the year 1913 was 1,013,975, and the total number of | ——- machines in-use during the samg time was nearly one million. The fotel Anileage of improved roads at the close of 1912 was approzi- mately 222,081.” ‘ The State of Maine sees good business in these facts. Maine sage to build $2,000,000 worth of State roads. ‘The State vill bonds for that amount, and will build and maintain the roads iteelf, charging to towns only the cost of maintenance up to $60 per mile. The interest and retirement fund for, the bonds the Sta expects to derive entirely from automobiles, It has worked out « sai ‘of registration and licensing charges to produce annually the fequired amount. ' Maine's argument is simple. Good roads mean less expense to the automobilist for tires. Therefore providing him with good roads Juatifies the State in charging him stiffer fees, » Nobody gets much shead of these “Down-Easters.” : —__—__ “et ‘After @ slight relapse, during which it complained of feeling etter, Wall strest has now recovered its poor health gnd low spirits, —_—_———_4- ___ George decided to make @ name for himself in polities, 80 he ran for Paritament.
