Dear Carl: '
-In line with the idea suggested by you in your letter , Jj.
of the 17th inst. , what do you think of having a cartoonist get
us up a cartoon showing the general outline of one branch of
the Dixie Highway from the Lakes to the Gulf with the greater
part of it shown as a completed permanent boulevard with some
horrible gaps here and there with farmers stuck in the mud on
• their way to market, school children climbing out of bus be-
cause the bus is stuck in the mud and having to walk to school,
with a picture at the top of Uncle Sam and a battleship and these
farmers and children begging Uncle Sam for the price of one battle- ';
ship with which to fix these gaps in the highway. You get my idea
without further elaboration. If you .think well of the idea you
might give me something 'else to put in the picture. I could get
this reproduced by the press practically from Michigan to Florida.
If we could get something of this kind to attract the eye, people
would then read what we have to say about it.
• We are having a great many kicks from St. . Petersburg
over the fact that the western division of the Dixie Highway does
not touch the most important metropolis on the west coast. We will
have a meeting of the Executive Committee in Atlanta within the
next few weeks to determine the place of our' next annual meeting.
Atlanta is anxious to ,have this meeting and Clark Howell wants us
to have the meeting of the Executive Committee in Atlanta in order
to stir up some enthusiasm on the proposition. I had thought of
inviting the Florida Directors to that meeting to thrash out the
question of changing the location of the western division so as to
touch. St. Petersburg. I hand you herewith map showing the present
location as well as the desired change. What do you think.of it?
Sincerely yours, '
D �' 1 �; GHWA S't CIATION,
MMA:R President.
