NATIONAL SYSTEM OF IMPROVED
HIGHWAYS IS OBJECTIVE
TO BE SOUGHT.
(By Associated Press)
II WASHINGTON. Oct 26. A nrocrnm
W for good roads construction dur
ing the next fifteen to twenty years
which will make the road transporta
tion facilities of the United States far
exceed those of any other nation in
the world past or present is the aim
of the Federal government The high
ways of Rome even whose fame has
come down through the centuries will
nale by comparison officials declare.
Under the program there will be built
during the period. 180.000 miles of
improved highways which will consti
tute the Federal-aid highway system.
and an equal or greater mileage of
State and local roads.
Details of this vast program will be
placed before the conference of the
highway education board meeting here
from October 26 to 2S. by state highway-
engineers and officials of the
Bureau of Public Roads of the United
States Department of Agriculture to
whom -has been -entrusted the work of
planning and supervising the construc
tion of the Federal-aid highways.
The plan will be presented especi
ally to enable the Board to proceed
authoritatively with its work of de-
vising aids for schools and colleges
to which the road-builders of the coun-
ry are turning for competent high
way engineers.
Cost Three Billions.
Officials of the Bureau place the ag
gregate cost of the Fcdera.l-aid pro-
gram alone at about $3000000000.
spread over the period. They base
their estimate on an average cost ofi
$17000 per mile. The average cost j
in . turn takes into consideration all
classes of improved highways from the
cheapest to the most expensive. Ap
proximately one-third of the proposed
system or 60.000 miles of Improved!
highways already are either built orj
building. A I
The program is a new one. Up lo
comparatively recent years the Bu-j
reau declares road building in the
United States has been conducted
without considering whether they
would link up in the most effective
fashion with the whole network of!
roads projected to spread over the en- j
tire country. Engineers had sought j
more to meet immediate and local de-
mands than the broader requirements
of the States and the nation.
A National System. !
The Federal-aid program officials
said will contemplate the construe
tion of only such roads as fit into the
national program and contribute to
the national system. At the same tlme
the roads will be so selected as to
serve the most important local re-
quirements. With marked modifica-
tions the system adopted in building
the railways of the country w'il be
borne in mind in the construction of
the nation's new highways. Thcr;
will be main lines of highway com-
munication between centers and thou-
sands of miles of feeder roads reach-
ing back into the more sparsely set-
tled regions and into the ricn agricul-
ture sections to tap areas whose pop-
ulation and products will flow over
the new system.
New roads will be built thousands
of miles of them where they will fit
in most advantageously witn the owito
program "I no J.'u.edU at present "s
engaged into research work into the
most efficient methods ot road build-
ing including the character and wear-
ing power of materials ond resisting
qualities of various substances and
has already amassed a grMt store of
valuable information which will be
available to the highway engineers of
tomorrow whom the Board especially
Is seeking to have educated in practi-
cal and modern methods.

LONDON OcL 26. "The flcstlj

the eighth child and upward the best.'
This is the result of an exhaustive' in-
quiry made by Dr. R. H. VercOc among
tho school children of Essex.
"Eighth children" he says "are in-
ferior to none and superior to the eld-
est children in small families."
In intelligence weight height and.
other qualities the differences are
slight but the following are noted. 4 ; ;
Intelligence rises slightly from first t
child to third then drops to theTsTxth
and rises again to the eighth child.
The tallest and heaviest children areT .
the latest born while the shortest and -ilghtest
are the second and sixth.
The eldest child as a rule has the
lightest colored eye while the eighth
has the darkest. In defects of vision
the first and second children are the
worst while the third child comes out
