April 23—(CP)-On- tarlo's new system of reducing road hazards on highways was explained today to on intetprovincinl confer- ence on highways called by the Ga- nadian Good Roads Association. “Hon. 'I‘.B. McQucsten, Highways Minister for Ontario, described the succersful use of heated sand as a substitute for salt and sand com- binations. He said the sand is heat- ed in n big boiler through use of steam, and then placed while still hot on the highways. Because it is warm, the sand will penetrate the lcy surface and pro- vide s safe sin-face for automo- biles. He told delegates from six provinces that. Ontario had decid- ed not to use salt and sand mix- tures on new highway surfaces be- cause tho combination appeared to damage the surface, and it also harmed the finish on cars. Stsndardlzaflon of highway signs to aid Canadian travellers and vu- itors from the United States is be- ing studied by s committee of del- egates. A report on Ontario's mark- ers will be placed before the com- mlttce. Most of the meeting time will cen- tre around technical problems of road-building and maintenance. Delegates attending included Hon. AS. MacMlllan, Highways Minister of Nova Scotla; H. M. Armstrong of the New Brunswick Department of Public Works; CF. H. MacDonald, chief engineer, De- partment of Public Works, Prince Edward Island. STERLING W. I. The A r11 meetln of the Ster- ling Inst tute-mst a the home of Mrs. H. S. MacEwen.
