Dr. Miller McCllntock, director of Yale university's bureau for street traffic research, said in an Interview that such a system of routes, designed to carry all ma jor traffic, would in large part re move . the necessity of critical judgments on the part of motor ists and make it difficult for driv ers to go wrong If obliged to do some emergency thinking.

The highway Is divided, has no access from abutting prop erty, no grade crossings and its efficiency and safety are height ened by segregation of relatively slow and fast traffic. "Our. belief,' the Yale expert said, "is that all American cities of any size must provide for the major movements of traffic by routes of that kind. The cost will be less than It has been tor the minor and abortive types of changes that have been made, notably the futile widening of streets. "There actually is nothing fan tastlc about' these principles of construction. We are applying ex actly the same principles an those governing railroad operations. which have an almost 100 per cent Bafety record."
