TRANSPORTATION THE LIFEBLOOD OF THE NATION \ private or commercial, is not a luxury. It has always been a vital necessity, not only for keeping the avenues of industry open, but in maintaining the health of the community. Think of the uses for transportation on which your daily life depends: the baker, the butcher, the grocer, the plumber, the builder, the the fire engine; ready and able to render instant service, only because of the motor vehicle. The farming community can maintain and increase production only through motor transportation: cream to the factory, top-dressing fop pastures, stock to the freezing works, wool to the mills and ships. Then timber must be brought to the mill, building materials to house and factory.
