Jasper County Democrat, Volume 20, Number 93, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 20 February 1918 — TRUCK ROUTES ARE MAPPED [ARTICLE]

TRUCK ROUTES ARE MAPPED

From Inland Manufacturing Centers to the Atlantic Sealmard. A pathfinder car has started on a new lap of mapping out army truck roads for the government, one official route having already been laid out from Detroit to the Atlantic coast and another from Buffalo to the seaboard. The car will go as far west as the‘Mississippi river and will map routes from cities-in Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, Indiana and Ohio. When this trip is completed the government will have four main highways forming connecting links

between the great manufacturing centers and the Atlantic seaboard. Motor trucks on their way to France will follow these routes.
