In regard to highways two things
„
have to be 'considered; their use by
our oWn citizens, and by visitors from
abroad. The tremendous increase in
the use of motor vehicles fri Canadajn
the past few yeara Is, scarcely realized.
In 1914 the number of motor vehicles
registered in Canada was 60„547.:
hi
1924 it was 850,281—nemly ten times
as great. The increase in 1924 over'
1923 was 75,152. Ort the °theta hand
there was the motor traffic from the
United States. Looking merely et the
total number of tourists,' motor ears
