Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Journal of the Boston Society of Civil Engineers, 1922, Vol. 9: Contents and Index
Thirty years ago there was an extensive propaganda for better roads, due at that time to the desires of the manufacturer and of the user of bicycles, the one to increase his sales, and the other to increase his enjoyment. To-day the propaganda is by the manufacturer and user of motor vehicles, one for the same reason that formerly inspired the bicycle manufacturer, and the other for far greater reasons, in that where the bicycle was used almost wholly for pleasure the motor vehicle 15 not only used for pleasure but is one of the prime commercial requisites of the present day.
