HIGHWAY UPKEEP TAKES
ALL AVAILABLE FUNDS
BONDING MEASURE ONLY STOP
FOR SPEEDY RELIEF.
SEATTLE, July 29.--Tra(tlc on
the highways of Washington incresed
from 150,000,000 car-miles in 1,914
to 870,000,000 car-miles in 1919.
Under this terrific hammering, gra.vel
and macadam roads eanno survxve,
according to the Automobile Club of
Western Washington. St, me' solu-
tion for this traffic problem must be
evolved as quickly as pos.slbl% say
memhers of the club.
Widespread failure, not withstand-
ing the expenditure of large sums
of money for maintenance, ha dem-
onstrated to the state and county
engineers that dee point where the
demands of traffic exceed the strength
o unpaved road., has been rc,:ched.
Since the advent of the ma,)r -
driven machine, the cost of road up-
keep has increwed at an alarming
rate. The maintmance appropria-
tion of this state for 1912 was $50,-
000 but at the last session of the
legislature the appropriation for this
purpose was jumped to more than
one million dollars.
This is one of the strongest argu-
ments for the passage of Referendum
No. 1 at the next election, according
to automobile club members. Ref-
erendum No. 1 provides for bonding
the automobile license fees so that
funds will be available immediately
for paving 1516 miles of state high-
ways, touching 29 'counties and serv-
ing 90 per cent of the population
of this state. If this measure is
voted upon favorably on November
2, it is confidently predicted by road
engineers that these highways can
be paved within six years giving
Washington one of the finest high-
W.gv systems, . in America.
aliI0rn;a was on of the first
tate to recognize that an automo-
)bile or motor track is no better than
;the road over which it runs. Los
-Angeles county bonded itself for
:$3,500,000 for good roads. The state
: and other counties voted large bond
:issues soon afterward, Today Cali-
vfornia has 6,000 miles of mudless
;and dustless highways and is the
'tourist's paradise of this country.
&m a direct result of this program
alifornia figures it tourist busmess
]s worth $1,000,000 a daY. This year
California has $60,000,000 and the
counties of that state $18,774,000
available from bond issues for the
extension of their state and county
road systems.
.Oregon some years ago authorized
bonds for road improvements. That
state now has nearing completion
200 miles of paced highway along
the Columbia river. So well pleased
were the voters of that state with
their investments in. roads that they
' voted',q to 1 in May this year to
increase the bond limit for roads to
$40,000,000•
Washington has a few stretches of
paved roads leading from some of the
principal cities but these roads are
not connected and do not serve the
traffic across the state as a system
proposed in Referendum No. 1 would.
It is pointed out by the Automobile
Club of Western Washington that
this measure would not increase the
taxes on real estate or personal
property, nor would it increase the
automobile license fees, which have
been fixed my the state legislature.
The bonds proposed would be issued
on the automobile license fees and
would make available immediately
$30,000,000 for paving on a definite
and comprehensive system of state
highways.
