The preliminary work alone will require a year or more. Seeks Beauty With Utility Lewis S. Sadler is the most prac tical idealist in tho State. He proposes both to build and to beautify. State highways, according to his conception. Should be something more than cement roads. They should bo tree-bordered avenues along which it will be a delight for motorists to ride. what Commissioner Sndler already has accomplished is an index of what he proposes for the future. When he assumed chargo of the High way Department at tho beginning of Governor Sprout's term, there wero 141 miles of concrete roads in uso In the Commonwealth. Today there arc 1200 miles of them. By the end of 1022. when the Com missioner' term of office with the Ad ministration expires, there will be 2000 miles. , Already this year contracts have beeu Igned for 1000 miles of concrete roads. A' fact apparent lo every one man dated or familiar with the accomplish mrnts of the department, Is that the Commissioner and his operative forces are building a monument for the Sprpul Administration. ' Pennsylvania's fame in this'respect is country-wide. " Spreads Fame of Slate Scarcely a week pauses that Commls tlonfrs, 'engineers, contractors or in ipectors from other States do not come to Harrhiburg to study the organization ltd work of the department. This State has built more nnd better rtada in the last year than any other elate in the Union. This is a fact Mwd on official reportH. Months ngn, writing of Commissioner tidier s plans, I Mid that nothing but concrete arterial highways would be constructed In the future. The Init'ul cost is greater, but they last immeaH- urDij- longer man anv older kind. , The Lincoln Highway, built under ' old system, costs approximately 7600 a mile a year to maintain. Concrete roads cost $75 a mile to maintain, The automobile llrcnso record weeks ago passed the 000.000 mnrk. At tho 1me T.All!L.ot increase by the Ugln ningof 102-t it will reach 1,000.000.
