Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Rural Highway Mileage, Income, and Expenditures, 1921 and 1922
In 1904, the year for which t e first rural road survey was made by the Bureau Of Public Roads, the motor car had not been seriously thought of as introducing a road problem. Now, only 19 years later, we have about motor cars and trucks on our roads, although more than miles, or over two - thirds Of the total mileage of our rural roads, is little or no better than it was 20 ears ago. These facts tell us most emphatically that the job of budding the nation's highways has been but little more than begun. How soon and how well the work will be completed depends entirely on how intelligently and resolutely we dedicate ourselves to the task.
