Whereas, The Old Spanish Trail aims to develop its territory south to all Gulf and border points as the playground of the people who seek the South, and it reaches no arm northward but offers its co-operation that vital trunklines may be completed and maintained equal to the demand of the traveler, and whereas, a strong, nationally known trunkline across the bottom of the continent will be of more service to the people and to the highways from the North than the confusions resulting from a medley of claims and pretensions by highway promoters, therefore, Resolved, That the identity of other highways ceases upon reaching the Old Spanish Trail, and that ihc people bo urged to co-operate in building a strong administration behind the OST trunklines, and that we all co-operate to develop for this South country a connected system, not a conflicting system, of trunklines that can be promptly completed. Introduction of other business. Announcements. Adjournment. Notices of resolutions as follows have been received: 1. Resolutions of appreciation to the National Highways Association, Washington, for co-operation in preparing map of Old Spanish Trail as the basic southern trunkline and showing its important connections from the North, and of thanks to the senators and congressmen who assisted at Washington in establishing the national recognition of this Highway and aiding in the work that brought the Old Spanish Trail and the War Department into co-operation and made this highway project a part of the plans for national defense. Resolutions requesting that map makers and highway promoters respect the identity of the Old Spanish Trail, and that map makers cease inscribing on maps the claims of highway promoters to sections of the Old Spanish Trail. Such mapping work aids promoters in their improper claims, misleads the people of the territory involved, and confuses travelers. U-0
