alt of tyred
With the replacement of the horse by the automobile these detrimental effects would disappear. The cost of road maintenance in parks and elsewhere would be reduced to a minimum, with the action of the elements as the only cause of “wear,” while the “tear,” which proceeds entirely from the impact of horses’ feet and the cutting of metal-tired carriage wheels would be entirely done away with.

Trains can’t swerve to avoid something in their way or stop on a dime like a rubber-tired vehicle.”

The famous words of Emma Lazarus on the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty read: “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.” Until 1921 this was an accurate picture of our society. Under present law it would be appropriate to add: “as long as they come from Northern Europe, are not too tired or too poor or slightly ill, never stole a loaf of bread, never joined any questionable organization, and can document their activities for the past two years.”
