Demand for winter roads is increasing, and now some 12000 milcs are kept open the year round in the central and western provinces, with other provinces likely to follotv this example.

Bituminous Concrete Construction In his paper on “Bituminous Concrete Construction." Mr. W. J. Lawson, assistant chief highway engineer. New Brunswick Depart- ment, described the hard surfac- ing programme now being carried out in his province. and the meth- ods adopted in the “Wk. It l5 planned to pave all of the 1,500 miles of main trunk roads, and the choice of type and design of pave- ment has been based upon the pol- icy of using local 009028-105 wher- ever feasible, thus lowering the cost of the work. Although an appro- priation of $l0.000.000 was voted in 1930, to be expended over a five- year period, work was not started until i934, when contracts for sixty- six miles of paving were awarded, with another seventy miles con- tracted for in 1935. Alloontracts were completed by the end of 1935. and further substantial construc- tion was under way this W81‘. but the work of grading and surfacing for this year's contracts was being spread over two years. The oost per mile, for a twenty-foot. surface. varied from $17,000 to $10000. Mr. J. E. Myers, chief chemist of the New York Stat/e Department of Public Works, in opening the ensuing discussion, congratulated Mr. Lawson 0n the concisensee and completeness, and also on the apparent suitability to local con- ditions of the pavement Whlflh he had described as being adopted by New Brunswick I-Itghaviyr engineers familiar with local conditions, he said, were the men ‘best fitted to discuss and to select pavement de- sign, Mr, Myers warned against two undesirable stirface conditions of bituminous construction, a. "fat" surface, which is slippery. and a "lean" surface, which will ritvel or shed. Since an ideal surface was difficult to obtain in actual con- struction, ft was best to err on the “iean" side, as this cculd be more easily corrected by subsequent sur- face treatment. and ivris much safer for the travelling public. 141w Cost. Bituminous Roads Mr. David Noonan , assistant commissioner of highways of Ncw_ York State. described several in- teresting experiments and method: of his‘ department in his lecture on "bow Cost Bituminous Roads." One was n, surface treatment of gravel and stone chips, which provided a. satisfactory roadl at 8. cost o.‘ $1800 per mile. Anotherl was the use of cotton fabric nsl part of the bituminous stirfacing of l gravel and low cost mucttdam. l These descriptions he supplemented with some general observations on safety and economy. The sight dis- tance on horizontal and vertical curves should not be less than i200 fcct. Three-tine highways have been provcn to produce too high a proportion of head-on collisions, and where traffic density demand-g ed more than two lanes, Mr. Noon-l an advised the four lane road withl a cent-re separating strip. In the ‘ast fifteen years more prrsons had been killed by motor accidents than the number killed in all the wars in which llie United Slates had been involihrl. It was animated, that the average annual cost of ac- cidents in the United States was. $l,570.000,000, exclusive of the value o‘ 36.000 lives lost. l Mr. Noonan emphasized the vaTue, of traffic studies before making any comprehensive highway plans He also strongly ‘advised making the rfght-of-way ample for future widening. as highway improvements. always increase land valueii and an! render subsequent acquisition of‘ fond for widening much more eostu ly than ff bought before the firatl improvement. Highway Safety Mr. W. G. Robertson. general mrmrrror of the Ontario Motor ‘League, was the first-speaker in a symposium on “Highway safety." when future historians, he ma, ap- praise todays‘ motor age, and note its deplorable death toll and per- sonal injuries, they cannot fail to note also that legislatures. police, courts. press, pulpit, radio, motor manufacturers, railways, road bull"- , road and safety nrganirr" clubs, servigp chill nr-l rt! ‘ . , i orcesl that mould public opinion were con- cerned with the htzhwflv safety problem. Every year alife is car-ri- ficed to each 1.000 mot/or vehicles in use in Canada. yet this death raw is the second lowest in the world. with New Zealand having the low- est. Canada's average of 1,000 mo- 3 tor deaths each year is almost ex- actly matched by the drowning death rate, these two causes ac-, counting for one-third of the 6,000 annual deaths by violence. . While the degree of safety built‘ into the madgis an important fac- . tor, the road used must bear the chief responsibility for avoiding ac- l cidenta. The prudent driver isl reasonably ‘safe on a clantwrfJl-lsi safe on the beat road. Drivers train- ed on modern highways are prone to accident when they find them- selves on inferior road surfaces. mad: the lmpmdcnt dflve, 15 “ml conditions made by the National The motor car which dodges in and l out of traffic, or is hurled at high iced over fresh gravel, around b" id surves or up hills, is as dan- rrr-rous as the firearm vrhose user "didn't. know it was loaded." Speed i-zhen foolishly used becomes a curse instead of a, blessing. Frequent official inspection of curs and their accessories are in the interest of public safety, but accid- cn: studies show that the fault is more often in the driver than in the vehicle or the road. The chief huma fault is not sheer reckless- ness, but. momentary lapses of’ vigiL imce which come from inattentton to the job of driving. Impatience, involving lnjudicious speed, cutting in, and discourtesy, comes next. This fault has led to serious pro- fosals for the limiting of speed by governors, thus imposing arbitrary limitations upon the flexibility and efficiency of the vehicle, but this seems a poor substitute for lack of self-control on the part of the driv- er. Sharing respomsibiiity with tire impatient driver, and contributing as an accident cause comes far down on the list. Because accidents largely result from a wrong state of mind, high- way safety is chiefly a. problem of the individual. Examination of all drivers for licenses has reduced tw- cidents in these jurisdictions which have adopted this tioiicy. Financial responsibility laws, adopted in twenty-eight states of the Dnion and in ailCanadiun provinces cx- cept Quebec, have removed many thousands of careless and uninsur- able drivers from the roads. Uni- formity in legislation and in ac- cident statistics is important, as is also strict enforcement or frame laws, as swift retribution is the only argument that will convince the reckless or dlsoourteous driver. Ra- dio equipment is proving a valuable aid to motor police. 1t is estimated that two-thirds of all police and court work 1n North America is concerned with the motor vehicle. Road authorities recognize that they must take account of the trend l0 hizhcr speeds, and must. make reasonable provision for its require- ments by proper designing of high- ways. Railway crossings present a perpetual safety problem. Their elimination is a slow and costly process. Much oould be clone, liow- ever, to improve the view at level crosings by the removal of shrubs. trees, unbankments or buildings. A committee of the League of Nations has made a. study of warning signals at crossings with a. view to inter- national unification, a most destr- abia reform, but even as between the various provinces of Canada there is a wide divergence in types of warning signs, and little progress toward national uniformity is be- ing made. HIEhWBY 118N408, though expen- ‘sive, has reduced rught accidents 35 to 40 per cent. on installations i.n the United States. Another costly but effective remedy is the four-lune highway. divided by a boulevard strip. which entirely eliminates the head-on collisions which represent more than half of all road accidents, Speed Governors Mr. William S. Canning, engineer- ing director of the Keystone Auto- mobile Club of Philadelphia, agreed with Mr. Itobertsonks view as to sliced governors, and bluntly ex- pressed his own opinion that the f-‘ovemor should be in the brain of the operator rather than in the car. buretor of the vehicle. He also en- dorsed the advocacy of frequent, in- spection of vehicles and corrccttion of faulty conditions, but said that accident reports showed mechanical imperfections play only a small part as accident cruises, and compulsory inspection once or twice a year had not consistently improved the con- dition of the average vehicle or re- duced the accidents attributed to nteehaiilcal faults. Building saefty into the road is the greatest contribution that en- yzineering can make to accident re- duction. Unless a road or bridge is so built that the average driver finds it easy to do the rightmthing. and difficult to do the wrong thing, the engineer has not fulfilled his task. The multiple-lane highway, with a strip dividing traffic in each direction, fa the ideal road, and ex- perts have reached the conclusion that a traffic volume of 3.000 ve- hicles per day demand a three-lane road; which is adequate up to 4.000 vehicles, but for traffic in excess of "W- llmlro four lanes should be provided. Character of traffic is also a factor, as heavy-duty vehicles greatly increase the congestion and the accident hazard on a two-lane 1'1""! 110W!!! 5969i) grades and carry- ing fewer than 3,000 vehicles per l rlny. The importance of the dividing ulrin is indicated by a study show- inlZ that the accident rate on a three-lane highway was but little greater than on a four-lane un- divided highway, Mr. Canning corroborated Mr. Robertson's statement that highway lighting would greatly decrease night accidents, and quoted statis- tica from Detroit, Washington and New Jersey which, he said, proved the conclusion that adequate il- lumination goes a long way toward reducing highway hazards. ’ Tourist mm.» "The Tourist Industry" was the subject of ‘an informative paper prepared by Arthur Bergeron, as- sistant deputy Minister of High- ways, Quebec Province, and secre- "lry 1;! the ‘Provincial Tourist Coun- ., o ex m3?:t.r.°°a.%°‘“‘ "atwl mm i BINGO PARTY A uspices Canadian Legion, R.C.N.V.R.

The tourist industry was unique fn that visitors produce nothing but are large consumers of a country's products. Directly or indirectly, their expenditures benefit, all indus- tries, businesses and professions of l the country visited. Excepting wear l and tear of the highways, they des- I troy nothing of a country's scenic and other resources, but leave them intact for the enjoyment of others. Since seventy per cent of tourists in Canada come by automobile, a piirrtmount essential for the contin- ued prosperity of the industry is good roads-safe, smooth and dust- lcrs highways. Other important factors are preservation of scenic beauties and fish and game resour- ces, beautiflcatlon of the country- side, a hospitable attitude on the part of Canadians, elimination of petty annoyances, and good and reasonably-priced hotels. The publicizing of Canada's tour- lst attractions has been well organ- ized. The vvork of the Canadian Travel Bureau, functioning under the Dominion Government, is sup- plemented by provincial and local tourist and conventio bureaus throughout Canada, and in Quebec by regional tourist bureaus, known as "syndicates of initiative," under provincial direction, and also by the two great railway systems and the navigation companies, the pioneers in advertising Canada. abroad. Fin- ally, all these organizations are grouped 1n the Canadian Associa- tlon of Tourist and Publicity Bur- eaus for purposes of study and- co- operation in tourist promotion. Good Roads Best Ascot In discussing Mr. Bergerorrs pa- per, Mr. Theodore G. Morgan. 1n his capacity as president of the Motitreal Tourist and Convention Bureau, agreed with the statement that tourist; travel can best be en- couraged by good roads, which he interpreted to mean tnterprovincial highway systems built in a uniform- ly high engineering standard in keeping with the highways to which tho tourist is accustomed in his own country. Unfortunately, the visiting motorist too often finds that. roads designated as main routes embrace all types of construction, with long miieagea of obsolete or secondary class roads. ‘Iliis is largely "the re- sult of piecemeal construction dic- tatcd- by political considerations, and a. failure to formulate and carry out definite tilghwav programmes- Until provincial govcmments oo- eperuto in providing adequate facil- ities for through travel, Canada. will lose much of the value of its huge investment in highways. In the interests of safety-economy and efficiency. highway engineers must be given i; free hand 1n by- passing towns and villages, in re- aligning main routes, and in adopt- ing the most advanced engineering practice and specifications. We cannot built highways too safely or boo well. To do otherwise is dan- gerous to the public and uneconom- ieal to the community that eventu- ally foots the bills. It is time that the taxpayer be taken into the eon- fidence of the respective govern- ments and given assurance of high- way programmes extending over periods of five or even ten years, and unaffected by the whims or vagaries of whichever political party happens to be in power. When this is done. Canada will enjoy the fruits of a. tourist traffic that will expand‘ fur beyond the moot san- guine expectation of today. ..'COMMUNITY AMATEUR NIGIIT, Montague, Sept. 17th, at 8.30.
