SEEK TO.END 1 ROAD JAM BY NEW ROUTES Congestion of Highways Leading Into Major Cities Necessitates Remedy. BY KENNETH WATSON WASHINGTON, Sept. 30.—Automobile traffic in and around all large cities of the United States has reached such proportions that radical changes in present road routing is necessary to prevent hopeless congestion in the next few years. This was the declaration today of J. Gordon McKay, chief of the division of highway economics of the United States Bureau of Public Roads, in citing the present regional road survey of Cleveland and vicinity, as offering the best solution of the growing traffic problems in American cities. The survey, initiated in June by the county commissioners, has been under way since Sept. 4, under supervision of the Government bureau. Before the Government consented to make the survey, the Bureau of Public Roads insisted that the county commissioners secure written pledges of all counties and cities involved to co-operate in constructing iroads deemed necessary. The promises were obtained and Sept. 4 men Wrere stationed in all sections of Cuylahoga and seven adjacent counties r to tabulate automombile traffic. Plan to Be Presented After several more weeks tabulating the Government engineers and the various county and city engineers will work: out a comprehensive plan for road routing, construction and design. According to McKay the survey wild enable roads to be constructed to take care of Cleveland’s growing traffic problem for the next ten or fifteen years. "I am absolutely convinced that such a survey :s imperative for counties near large cities and advisable for States,” McKay said. The main difficulty in present day road construction, McKay says, is that most county roads converge Into cities in fan shape, thus creating tremendous congestion at the center. Chief attention will be paid to three kinds of routes. One class will be new arterial highways' running into Cleveland in such a manner as to provide easier egress and ingress; a second class will be belt routes that will avoid Cleveland and othjr nearby cities and the third by-pass roads. Traffic Will Be Noted Special attention will be paid to the origin and destination of traffic

EVANSVILLE COLLEGE TO HOLD DEDICATION Athletic Field and Stadium Will Be Opened Saturday. liv United Prett EVANSVILLE, Ind., Sept. 30. Evansville College will dedicate Its new athletic field and stadium Saturday afternoon. Each student and faculty member contributed twenty hours’ labor to building the stadium. Following the dedication ceremonies Evansville College and Oakland City College elevens will play the opening football game of the season. Speakers at the dedication will include President Earl E. Harper and Prof. Max B. Robinson of Evansville College, and John W. Boehne Jr. and Coach John Harmon. The tabulators stop a certain proportion of the traffic passing and question drivers of both passenger cars and trucks as to where they started from, where they are going and by what routes. The speed of autos in relation to the width of roads is carefully watched, the object being to determine how wide the roads should be. The Cleveland investigation is the second in which the Government has co-operated. In 1924 a less elaborate survey was made In Chicago, but lack of proper co-opera-tion agreements between city and county officials has hindered execution of the plan worked out. In the Cleveland survey such enthusiastic co-operation is being given by all concerned that the Government expects 100 per cent results.

FAIL TO CLIMB ROCKIES PEAK Canadian Mountain 'Turns Back Alpinists. Bv MEA Service LAKE ADOLPHUS, Mount Robson, B. C., Sept. 30.—Mount Robso.i, giant peek of the Canadian Rockies, this year has turned back eve:y party of Alpinists who have attempted to scale it. Two recent attempts were made by member;; of the Seattle Mountaineers’ Club, but they, too, met with failure. A driving rain and low-lying clouds were encountered by the climbers on their dangerous ascent from the valley floor. At high altitudes they ran into sleet and finally, when the weather cleared, they waded waist-deep through snow. Finally, yshen success seemed almost certain, they brought up against a huge ice cliff, blocking the only possible approach to the summit. The cliff is 100 feet high and almost perpendicular. The climbers said they would try again next year. Entire Life Lived In Country Bu Timet Special COLUMBUS, Ind., Sept. 30. Funeral services were held here today for Mrs. Alice S. May, 66, widow of George May, who had spent her entire life in Bartholomew County. She had been ill two years.
