Editorial remarks inspired by paper read by A. Davies before Institute of Transport; enthusiasts for road transport profess to forsee day when railways will be converted into motor tracks, but it is much more likely that they will be restored to their legitimate function as carriers for all long-distance traffic other than that of exceptional nature; one of more important questions in connection with road traffic is manner in which road costs are to be distributed amongst community; coordination between railway and road-transport interests.
