line had been informed thul they could not be encouraged to meet un- * til Indiana had been heard from and 1 slut-e it is the alm of the association | to have this route entirely marked to Denver, Colo., by the opening of the tourist season, immediate action seems to bi needed. Mr. Vaughn states that he has received clippings about the Wabash river Hooding State Road No. 7 and it may not be practical to rout* the Harding highway byway 1 of Decatur, but rather let it jog north through Fort Wayne where the association will have a paved road. Briefly, the program for the state association is to keep half of the funds raised for use in marking and advertising the road and for traveling and other expenses incurred by the state association. Indiana is asked to raise $311,000 Os this sum $15,000, is tn be kept by the state association and the other $l5.OQp would be turned over to the national association to defray expenses. Money will also be needed for national promotion work which shall include the employment of Held representatives who shall devote their full time to going Over the route, meeting with state and county highway officials and doing those things that the Lincoln Highway association does to win construction of the road from coast to coast. In concluding his letter Mr. Vaughn says, "If you do not favor the plan

y and if you do not want the Harding • Highway it will be helpful to us if 1 you will advise us by early mail as 1 we do not feel tut.t we should leave ’ this matter open much longer.’’ ’ It is calculated that with such a i highway established across the coni tinent it would mean an average of t 2,51)0 autoh passing dally through a ! community. Four passengers to a car 1 would mean 10,000 people who would ’ injjtor through every day. These auti olsts all contribute something to- • wards prospering each town. It Is probable that one half of these people > would be tourists. Statistics compili ed by the American Tourists Guide I showjhat each tourist spends an average of 25 cents in each town. At 25 cehts each, 5,000] people would ■ leave $1,250 in each city. In a bulletin Issued by the Nation- • al Association appears the following: "There is no line of mercantile business that does not profit from tourist travel. Why so many merchants other than those allied with hotel, restaurant and garage business declare they get nothing from the traveler. Is due to one or two things: they are not awake to the age. or else they do not know all sources from which their business comes. The department, hardware and men’s furnishing . stores, meat market, grocery, drug- I gist, even the dentist and too often the lawyer and Justice of the peace directly or indirectly make money.” o IBig Features Os ( RADIO j Programs Today ( WJZ.
