He is one of the world's great est builders of roads," said Sec retary of Commerce Sinclair Weeks. "This assures the nation that history's biggest public works project will be constructed with outstanding skill, vision and integrity." Tallamy, in an interview with United Press at headquarters of of us can conceive at this time Tallamy said. "In New York I have seen vast new industries spring up al most like magic in open areas. I have seen big new trucking terminals, new warehouses for perishable and staple goods, thousands of people now employ ed along the thruway. I have seen property values haDDen across the nation on 41 000 miles? The ultimate result cannot be foreseen. "That is really the reason for this program." Tallamy also underlined "the great security it gives the na tion in time of war to have an express highway system." -It is not only to move troops and equipment." he said. "It is Tallamy, an nutdonrsman who prefers ice fishing to golf, a do-it-yourselfer who wired and pan eled his own summer cottage on Bowman Lake, personally walk ed over many miles of the thru way. "I don't believe a man can sit behind a desk on a construction job and know what's going on," said Tallamy, the grandson, son the New York State Thruway J jump from S600 to S20.000 an j extremely important to civil de-; and father of an engineer. "For a rond which he built, looked at i acre. Recreation areas are en the national project Opportunity for Progren "The opportunity for social and economic progress in the na-itances. tion which will result from the successful completion nf this system is beyond anything any fense. It is possibly even more important in the decentraliza tion of industry which this makes possible. "With the enemy able to bomb if (hi, h lir,nr.n.H in nnp i concentrated areas, mis aecen- state on one road only 426 miles tralization might mean the very long, can you visualize what will I survival of the country." joying a vast new Boom wun vacationers coming more fre quently and from greater dis- me to r'o the job the way it's got to be done, I must make frequent visits with state gov ernors and highway officials. We must get in an automobile and go out and look at the prob lem before we can make a decision." Tallamy has seen more than S150 million worth of new indus trial plants employing 30,000 persons with an annual payroll of $150 million spring up along the thruway. A $4 million TV assembly plant went up at Bat avia, N.Y., a S30 million shop ping center in Yonkers. He sees no reason why this cannot repeat itself on a na tional scale where farm products will move farther faster and more cheaply where industry will locate in areas with steady tax rates, build-in basic services such as sanitation, the right climate, raw materials nearby, yet as in Syracuse, N.Y., draw workers from suburbs, villages and farms 50 miles away. I puts on his glasses and draws Tallamy still has an engineer little diagrams for a. one who eye for detail. As he telfcs he doesn't get this big picture. 1 i She's wearing thiftew, estonishingSong tone 79' hearing aid entirely of the ear!
