Economic case for better roads and broad tires.
General Roy Stone estimates 1.5 million miles of U S roads haul 500 million tons of freight yearly at 2 per ton, costing 1 billion. Improved roads could cut costs to 400 million, saving 600 million annually, the equivalent of 20 billion in bonds interest.
