It wasn't "HORSE-AND-BUGGY" ENGINEERING METHODS that built today's highway systems

THE engineering side of road-building would never have achieved such phenomenal progress had it not been for the sound methods that govern it. The engineer conducts constant and endless research scrapping the unsound, standardizing on the sound. He follows only proven principles.

The public official, the administrator, responsible for the business end of road-building, must follow the same methods. Only then will the taxpayer receive full value for his highway dollar.

We commend to public officials, who have not already adopted them, the four principles here set forth. They embrace not only sound business, but sound engineering as well. We shall gladly furnish additional facts.
