The federal government co-operated with the states in the Jin Drove men t of 7,022 miles ot federal aid highways during the fiscal year 1929. bringing the total mile age of the system improved with federal aid to 78,096, the bureau of public roads disclosed today.; There are approximately 188. 000 miles of main Interstate and Inter-county highways In the fed eral aid system. Among the 7, 022 milos improved were 1,056 miles of graded earth roads, 663 miles .of sand clay, 1,293 gravel. 189 waterbonnd macadam, 72S bituminous concrete pavements. 3,101 of Portland cement con crete pavement and 48 miles pav ed with vitrified brick. In addition to the improved mileage, at the end or the year there were under construction with federal aid 9,526 miles, 8, 358 of which were undergoing In itial improvement, and 1,168 were being given a higher type of sur face than was provided in origin al construction. The estimated cost of the mileage under con struction is 3238,158,495. which includes federal funds In the sum of $96,500,347. At the "end of the year there were also approved for Initial construction 1,833 miles ot high ways and a further 1,065 miles to receive a higher type of sur face.

This was 4,756 more than had been sold in the U. S. during the entire 6H years from January 1st, 1922, to July 1st, 1928. 93.2 of all the Reo Speed Wagons sold in the U. S. the-pretious years were still reg istered July 1st, 1928, 803 of all the Reo Speed Wagons sold in the U. S. the previous 8X years were still registered on July 1st, 1928. And 50.8 of all Reo trucks sold since 1913 were still registered on July 1st, 1928. ABOVE we quote facts on the long life of t. Reo Speed Wagons, in years of service based on registration figures compiled by Reuben H. Donnelley Corporation, a totally disinterested statistical firm. These facts, we believe, indicate a long-life record without equal in the field of commercial transportatiorL But bear this in mind in terms of miles, thi3 record is still more outstanding, still more im portant to every user of trucks, In the same given period Reo Speed Wagons, built as they are for passenger car speed, undoubtedly have covered and are covering today at least Usict the number of milea per day as average motortrucks. And you know that the quicker the run the greater the profit. , Equally important is the fact that this record is based on all Reo Speed Wagons in use in all lines of hauling. Not just one truck, ten trucks, or one hundred unusually well cared for, little used trucks. This utterly amazing record in stamina is a part of every Reo Speed Wagon you buy today in any of the wide variety of models from X to" 3-ton: capacity. Reo engineering and manufacturing methods make doubly sure of this. There is just one reason for this almost un believable record in continuous service: Reo early recognized the need for a tremendous stamina combined with balanced light weight in commercial vehicles the need for sizing and powering trucks to do their job econom ically, efficiently and over a long mileage life. For example, Reo engines are amply powered for their job instead of using larger gear ratios which force the engine up to racing, wearing speed in order to deliver the same power. Naturally, this high speed engine wears out more quickly. While outstanding stamina has been a recognized feature of Reo trucks since the first one was buHL Today, Reo engineers in their defeat of fric tion and vibration, have designed and built an even greater measure of efficiency, econ omy and long trouble-free life, into Speed Wagons of H to 3-ton capacity. They have put the finest of long-lived mate rialssome of them resulting from exclusive Reo formulas into Speed Wagons. They have added features in design and manufacture that establish an entirely new conception of commercial transportation. Passenger car speed, flexibility and economy of operation have been blended with brute strength to offer industry K to 3-ton hauling like men have never known before. And above all, Reo engineers have made these qualities lasting. Buying any truck without first investigating these Speed Wagons, is a mistake no thinking buyer will make. Reo Speed Wagons are offered in 14 wheel base sizes from 115' to 179'. Chassis priced trom $s to $zuu,i-. u. a. Lansing.
