Strong advocate urges state bond issue for roads
At a Tuesday meeting Hon. George Ladd urged Pennsylvania to issue bonds to fund permanent road building. He argued autos and horses share the public highway, pressed speed limits on engines, and compared road funding to France's system. He contended good roads boost schools, farms, and commerce, and urged a nationwide plan with state, county, and local cooperation. He warned against patchwork spending and favored bonds to plan ahead, citing New York’s road debt as a benchmark.
