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.
