:March I, 1929 . CITY~SUBURB CREATES NEw PROBLEM TRAFFIC Survey Shows Highway ~on atraetion at These Points Ia Lagging The steady movement of population from the city to adjacent suburban sections in recent years has created a serious traffic problem which is now being made the subject of a comprehensive study by the American Motorists' association, in a joint survey with The Automobile Club of Illinois. Highway construction is lagging in most of these newly built-up sections, the association has found, and this failure to provide adequate facilities is denying to the motoring public the most beneficial use of roads costing many hundred millions of dollars. Road Development Needed Because they form important links betwee9 rural roads and city streets, it is imperative that highways through these suburban sections be developed to a point where congestion, with consequent delay, will be avoided, the association points out. "Counties and corresponding political divisions of states are making satisfactory progress in construction of so-caUed rural roads, and cities are cooperating by providing through traffic Janes to speed up traf-fic. Between the city and the en d of the rural road, however, lies the :>Uburban section with its deficient · highway, hampering travel in both direction s." the report ·s tates. Lack of Co-o~ration The chief reason, the survey shows, for the underdevelopment of highways through such sections is the lack oi proper cooperation between local and county officials. Often elective officials do not sufficiently understand highway administration and lack of revenue precludes the employment of competent engineers or the acquisition of necessary roadbuilding equipment. , "It is of the utmost importance that roads through these newly built-up areas be developed," said Si. Mayer, President of The Automobile Club of Illinois and Vice-President of the A. M. A. "The urban dweller who wants to go to the country and the suburban dweller who wants to go to the city have a common intere'.5t in the improvement of these important connecting highways." . . .

Sloan, Jr., pre'.5ident of the General Motors Corporation. He says : "In arriving at this conclusion we give weight to the constantly increasing replacement demand as the number of vehicles in current u1se increases. We give weight to the natural growth and increase in wealth and to the tremendous possibilities of the expol,'t markets which are just beginning to be capitalized.. · 11 1 believe there is a growing appreciation of what can be accomplished by the application of '3cientific principles in distribution, such as have produced such wonderful results in production and ·that this is bound to lead, during the next few years, to developments which are likely to revolutionize our present methods of distribution." Mr. Sloan warned that the sale of used cars would play an important part in the productivity of the industry.
