Job 4:7. THE CITY'S TRAFFIC PROBLEM. Nothing so impresses the casual driver, who is accus tomed to small city driving and minor traffic, as a1 return to metropolitan centers where the traffic problem is obvi ously becoming' one of the most serious with which our large cities must contend. To the average resident of 1'ortland or Seattle, perhaps, the congestion of automobiles cn every approaching highway and city thoroughfare is a natter of little concern an evil to he endured and mado the best of, but nevertheless it promises to become a tre mendous obstacle to both business and pleasure as car own ership reaches ever nearer the saturation point. Cn Sunday afternoon, for example, between Seattle and Tacoma, on the south, or Everett, on the north, the Pacific highway fairly swarms with motor cars. For miles the c.rs stream past with just enough space between machines to give some measure of sf icty in driving seldom a chtince to pass the driver ahc ,d or be passed, so con- e':zzt is the stream of motor cis in the opposite direction. Occasionally you see evidence of some minor accident and possibly some too-hurried diiver hits a bridge rail and swings across the road, stoppiirg cars, bmupar-to bumper ;for ITTull mile in bath diicctions while the wreck is beinur cleared off the io..d in the space of ten minutes. And this is tne higiiw.y "out in the o; n" fifteen or twenfy miles fiom i.ny oily of size. Wh. t pleasure the u.b n ;-v idont gets fiom ;uirh d i.' ing, or fiom the eoiucesUd pi nirs ami lecreations sueh driving affords, is a r.iaUrr of debate. 1ml certain'y there comes a time when our p escnt site's ;.nd highways viil not be adequate to handle automobile traffic in metropo it in areas. The condition that crisis in our own Northwest cities, is not unusual, of cmnse, and much greater traffic ' is handled in and ne ir easte: n cities. The Post road I, 'ad pig along the Sound into New Yoik City has been f.unou: for years for its solid hues of cars for many mi'es, ai d Do t'oit's streets and highways are swamped with continuous motor car movement that is am.r.iag to witness. How leng hi,, people who do the diiving will stand the pressure only time can tell but futuie g. Derations will see many impiovements in our highway systems and various methods of handling motor transpoi tatioii. Already I)e troit is looking ahead with plans for super bouievaids en tering the city that will be many times as wide as present loads and, like the projected auto highway into London, provide! for five lines of traffic in each direction and no speed limits. For those who consider every dollar in the light of the tax Inn den it may carry, the piospecl may l -startling, but even the famous Colombia Kiver hmliwa.v v ill have to be "double-tracked" some il y to care for th evor-ine. easing swaim of ears.
