This total is being increased at the rate of 4,000,000 a year. What is the saturation point? Ask any one of the 16,000,000 motor ists trying to make headway through the countless traffic jams on some of our concrete highways. He Will tell you, from the standpoint of comfort and safety in driving, the saturation point is already in sight. Not a very encouraging outlook, is it, for the man about to buy his first auto mobile ? So you see car owners and prospec tive car owners are both interested and have in immediate task confronting them. What are you going to do abqut it? Even now you are curtailing the use of your car because you do not want to en dure the discomfort, inconvenience and danger of traveling on congested, nar row highways. Your highway officials need your sup port. They can t do much unless you 6tand squarely behind them. To delay building more highways wide enough and strong enough to meet all the requirements of modern traffic Will cost you more money than will an adequate system of Concrete Roads and Streets.
