. NATIONAL HIGHWAYS.
Secretary of War Baker . was re
cently requested for an opinion on
the Shields-Small bill providing for a
preliminary investigation and report
on a system of national highways.'
His reply is characteristic of the
manner in which he goes to the bot
tom of things, and suggestive of big
possibilities in the future: ;
"If congress desires to enter upon
the construction of a system of na
tional highways, the general features
of the plan presented in the bill are,
. in my judgment, admirably adapted
to' produce the facts - necessary for
such a consideration. It proceeds up
on the safe and wise business princi-
: pies of preliminary examination and
report, thus giving congress full in
formation collected by trained men
and the data so collected forms a def
inite and essential basis on which to
found conclusions as to what extent,
if any, and under what conditions the
federal government shall embark up
on such a project .
"It includes also the sound princi
ples of central control, thus insuring
standard and uniform results for all
sections of the country, and on com
mitting expenditure to officers di
rectly accountable to the federal gov
ernment, and alive to the fact that the
largest possible outcome for the mon
ey placed in their hands is expected of
them. ', V?'' . V: ';
"In addition to the advantages of
the intelligent way of going at the
matter, and of the uniform and eco
nomical results to be expected from
the method in which appropriations
are to be applied, the plan .makes
possible a special military advantage
in time of war through the fact that
officers of the corps of engineers, on
whom, in war time, the work of map
ping out the theatre of operations
and constructing roads therein, de
pend, would have a-wide knowledge
of onr national communications, and
a valuable, practical experience in
road construction. While all of the
officers of the corps receive thorough
theoretical instruction in the road
making art, opportunities are now
: lacking for giving them the practical
experience essential to a quick and
ready grasp of the emergencies which
would arise at the outbreak of hos-
tilities. . .. . '.'
' Toir these reasons, if congress de
cides to embark upon a project of this
character, there will be many advan
tages in conducting the work under
the engineering corps of the United
States army.
"With reference to the sum pro
posed for defraying expenses, the in-
formation available in the department
is insufficient to permit a positive ex
pression of views as to whether $250,
000 will suffice to prepare a complete
preliminary plan for the whole Unit
ed States or not. The recent high
way work for various states has pro
vided a considerable mileage which
will be available for connection be-
' tween principal centers. It has been
Computed, however, that the .total
length of roads in the United States is
' something over 2,000,000 miles, and
. considering the wide extent of the na
, tional domain, and the fact that in so
many instances alternative routes be
tween centers are available, it will be
seen that the plan involves the con
sideration of thousands of miles of
.highways. The sum mentioned, how
ever, will doubtless permit the prep
aration of preliminary plans for a
large proportion of the principal
routes. '
