The jujiet'l aro under FOR NATIONAL HIGHWAYS. AT TIIK National (lood Roads convention hold roconl y in Washington, IX (, an activo oainpaigu was laniifliod for national aid for highways. .It is imiposod to constniot 50,000 miles of highways, connecting and inter linking every part of the IJnited Stales. The total cost will approximate ti quarter of a billion dollars. The highways system, as laid out, consists of six main highways, Hiirteen trunk highways and forty link high ways, connecting the mains and the trunks, and reaching out m all directions until the with almost a spider-web tracery of roads. It, is stated that in spite of this apparently complete covering of the country, however, the network of suggested roads aggre gate hut two percent of the total highways of the nation. The main highways contemplated in (lie plans tire: The northern, from Boston to Seattle, a distance of :i87o miles; the central from Washington to San Francisco, 4025 miles, and the southern, from St. Augustine to San Diego, 3375 miles, or a total of east and west main highways of 1,275 miles. The north and south main liighwavs are tho Atlantic, from Calais, Me., to Miami, Fla.lMOO 'miles: the Mississippi, from Dulutli to New Orleans. M50 miles, and the Pacific, from Seattle to San Diego, 1775 miles, a total north and south mileage of 5G25 miles of main high-wav. Tho trunk highways proposed by ttye association tire the Appalachian, between Albany, N. Y and Mobile, with a length of about 1575 miles; tlie Canada-Unlf, from the wed river ot the .North to New Orleans, 1700 miles; the Gieat Lakes-Atlantic, from Chicago to Charleston, S. C. 1025 miles: the Great Lakes-Gulf, from Chicago to Appa hichicola, Fla., 1300 miles; the Lake-Mountain-Paeific, from Chicago to Los Angejes, 2050 miles; the Missouri Arizona, from St. Louis to Phoenix, 1775 miles; the north west, from Chicago to Billings. Mont., 1500 miles; Okla-homa-Carolinas, from Guthrie to Beaufort, M75 miles; the Puget-Gulf, from Seattle to Galveston, 1025 miles; the Rocky Mountain, from Fort Assiniboine, Mont., to 101 Paso, 1250 miles: the Santa Fe, from Kansas Citv to San Francisco, 2450 miles; the Southwest, from Philadelphia to Laredo, Texas. 2475 miles, and the Texas-Atlantic, from El Paso to Wilmington, N. C, 1.900 miles. Total, 23,300 nines. The forty linlc highways in the proposed system are designed to connect the mains and the trunks of the high way network and aggregate 10.S25 miles, the total for mains, trunks and links being 51,025 miles, approximately. The association states that the more than 50,000 miles of highway contemplated in the original plans are merely a Dogimnng, ana tnat tlie system is intended to be the basis of a network of interstate and intrastate roadways that will cover the entire country and afford adequate communication between all sections. As the average cost per mile of proper v constructed permanent highway is about $5000, it will be seen that tho cost of the proposod highway system would be something like $255,125,000. The system proposed as a national one "not state highways, with national aid or without it, but a broad and comprehensive system of national high ways, built, owned and maintained' by the national govern ment, in the same way that France makes, owns and main tains its national road system, the best in the world."
