w o w-w"w-w r - m EDITORIALS Pan American Highway For many yean American tourists have dreamed of driving from the United Sta tes down to Panama, or even further south. There has been widespread Pan American Highway. Not long ago, however, two American Automobile Association experts reported that the drive, even as far as Panama, was not recommended, and that it was not worth the hardships, expense and annoy ances. The two experts were well ac quainted with the route, for they had begun a journey in February, southward to Panama, having arrived after many grim battles. Kven before leaving Mexico, it seems, the tourist who would drive south along the Pan American Highway (which was to have been opened this year, incidental ly) must cross a number of streams where there are no bridges. Then, into Guatemala, and on down El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rico, etc., various other difficulties are en countered. Some of the new highways are even deteriorating rapidly. The climax comes when one gets within 134 miles of the Panamanian border, where the road suddenly stops. This road was supposed to havt been built in time for the opening of the High way this year, but thirty-nine bridges are still to be built, and it is not open. Thus, we are sorry to say, the Pan American High way is still a farce. And it is a poor com mentary on the foresight, planning, and ef ficiency of our Central American neighbors to the south.
