The bulletin presents diagrams,
hall tone illustrations and statistics in
illustration .jof its text dealing with
Uie economic value of the market
road, the cost ol* highway construction
and maintenance, the mnihods of is
suing bonds and the total ?:ost of
highways. It dwells upon legal re
strictlous on bond issues and the need
for highway engineer. and, discussing
the advantage of bond issues, says:
"Tiie issuance of highway bonds is
essentially a method of capitalizing
thi- resources of a eon?iiionity for the
purpo-e o fc-eating improved high
ways. Th<' fundamental advantage of
the bond plan is the const ruction of
a good system of roads ui once, hut
tliere are secondary advantages in
building roads in long stretches and
In th.. planning of the maintenance

"The question hot merely wheth

it 's also a question as in whether

* Fmpluis's ha-, been placed in this
ib! "?i'!on ?. ihe strictly mensurable
ennomlc benefit* to a community
from ro'd improvement. There are
mnnv aifditlonal economic hcnf'ts and
very great social benefits which are
p.n treadllv measured. Increased
tiool and church attendance is

,. i> difPeull to evaluate. It is evi
[jdenl however, that hus'-'fss ami pro
fovnlnnnl men of all classes are among
j the f:r?t tik Im benefited. This is es
pecially true of physicians. The cost
j of upkeep of automobiles, particular
ly of tires, is becoming yearly a large
; item, and the road cend'tlon (- a
< most sor'r.us factor for the automobil
j i<:t nr.d the users of motor trucks.
I "It shouid be understood at the
. ontsej that the question of debt It
j self is relatively h s> iinnortnnt than
the quest Ion "of sound planning and
[good management of the loan. The
: very nrcsence of the imprr.ved ro?d
I svstem Increases the value of the
' eountv property, and therefore the
I resources supporting the loan. It is
I a well established business principle
j that extension of credit within safe
I limits is necessary for maximum re

j cd very greatly. In 15*0S statistics
I show that during the preceding decade

NfeetiiiR an argument which Is
sometimes advanced the bulletin -.ays:
"In planning the highway system or
the main market roads, as mentioned
above, it will be lound necessary to
omit many roads the improvement of

landowners. The fact that such pro
