Summary: "Address by Honorable Franklin K. Lane, Secretary of the Interior at Conference of Regional Chairmen of the Highways Transport Committee Council of National Defense" is a governmental address written in the early 20th century, specifically during the time of World War I. This book serves as a historical account of the discussions surrounding the importance of enhancing the national highway system in the context of wartime logistics and infrastructure. Lane's address emphasizes the critical role highways play in connecting communities and facilitating transportation. In his address, Lane articulates the necessity of improving and maintaining the nation's highways to support both the war effort and the future integration of returning soldiers into civilian life. He underscores the value of highways as vital arteries for communication and commerce, comparing them to historical military roads that have influenced the outcome of past conflicts. Lane advocates for a comprehensive national strategy that focuses not only on the construction of highways but also on their sustained upkeep and the coordination of various transportation methods. He calls for the reclamation of underutilized lands and the creation of small agricultural communities to provide opportunities for soldiers returning from war. The address encapsulates a vision for a more interconnected and self-sufficient America, driven by the collective effort of its citizens. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
