"Let's not kid ourselves, highway transportation is going to grow big- ger and bigger, and when highways are being built they should be built strong enough not only to take the truck trailers of today but the larger trailer! of tomorrow,"

Mr. Russell went on to say that "when highways are being built. there is a certain basic cost. and for very little more a highway can be built that will carry the ever in- creasing load of passenger cars and trucks at very low maintenance cost." He further stated that the roads that are being built in the Maritimes today and those that will be built tomorrow are not being built because the truckers demand them but because the car owners demand them. the tourists demand them. "Adequate roads is one of the most vital needs in Canada. today." he said. "Vital to the nation's social and economic well being and to its adequate military defense."
