$250 Million a Year Wasted on Bad Roads
Hon. Peter G. Johnston told the Inter-Mountain Good Roads Association in this city that Americans waste 250 million dollars annually on bad roads. He cited costs to farmers, railroads, and consumers, urged national road policy and a Yellowstone route, and praised macadam and local road gains while linking good highways to farm prosperity and national welfare.
