Why tho West Believes in Building
Highways For Automobiles.
"Tlic good roads movement in the
east does not compare with that of the
west," said Ilorice (). Gordon of tho
Oklahoma Good Uoads association
; while lie was in Now York on a visit.
| "I think the work of the good roads
I advocates in the east lias stirred tip
the public demand and desire for "tho
best roads in the world' in the west,
but I flo not believe the eastern states
are carrying out the work so thorough
ly as tiic western states.
"We In the west appreciate the fact
that the opening of the western coun
try depends entirely upon Its roads,
i and we are not goiug to build high
ways which will last merely a decade,
like your eastern state roads, to be
torn up by uutomoblles.
"We are building roads which the
motor cars cannot tear up. We feel
that the automobile can do us more
good than the horse, because we have
j to cover hundreds of miles where you
j in the east cover tens of miles.
[ "It seems a ridiculous thing to build
a road for the use of the horse, which
is oil the decline, and then when the
i automobile comes along and tears it
up to jump up and yell that the motor
car is destroying our roads. The thing
to do is to build roads for tbe automo
bile, and then the horse can use them
as long as he lasts, which will not tie a
great wliile."
Forest Service and Good Roads.
Realizing that with thicker settle
ment and Increasing use of the na-,
tional forests good roads will become
more and more a crying necessity, It has
been arranged that the office of public
roads of the department of agriculture
shall co-operate with the forest service
In drawing up plans for comprehensive
systems of roads and trails In the na
tional forests. Hitherto the funds al
lotted by congress to the forest service
for permanent improvements on na
tional forests have largely been used
for road and trail building, but tho
amount is too small compared with tho
total area of the forests to make pos
sible more than a small beginning.
Building each year under the new ar
runtroiiipnt mn h»* ilono tvith r*»f*»n\n
j ra-ngpiiieru can oe aone uitn reference
j to a carefully worked out plan, escap
i lng the danger of undirected efl'ort.
The roads, trails, telephone lines and
lire lines already constructed in na
tional forests are proving of groat
value both in the work of fire protec
tion nnd In serving the convenience of
i the public. The further this work can.
lie carried the greater will be the use
fulness of the forests to the surround
ing regions. This Ls only one of the
many ways in which the forest service
is promoting the interests of the peo
ple.
Poor Roads Bad For Smoker*.
"It's hard to run out of 'tobackor'
during wet times." complained a farm
er, "being headed off from the source,
nf supply by impussable roads and'
with nothing to do but to brood over
the situation."
