Good Roads Suggestions and Uplift Plans
A collection of essays on road policy argues that wealthier, suburban districts can fund and build better highways through fair property taxes and voluntary contributions. It favors county control with state aid to equalize funding, cites New Jersey 1891 reforms, and includes practical tips for road surface improvements using sand and clay. It notes New York farmers would benefit from a $2,000,000 annual road program, with farm values rising as roads improve, and highlights railways aiding material transport. It closes with broad remarks on public well being and distant wonders like Mammoth Cave tourism and Moscow’s Kremlin library exploration.
