Gilmer Sparger, Executive Secretary of the North Carolina Petroleum Industries Committee. “On the map, mark down exact ly where you are and the place you want to go,” Mr. Sparger said. “Then circle all those spots where traffic will get congested between the two points,” he suggested, “and simply work out a route to get around them.” Mr. sparger pointed out that the real problem for holiday travel “comes when everybody wants to go the same place, at the same time, and use the same route. One of the best ways to beat the bot tlenecks is to use the solid color ‘blue roads’ shown on your road man,’’ he added. Mr. Sparger noted that service stations often have information on the latest road conditions and can usually provide travel tips that will also be helpful. “If you have any questions about your proposed route,’’ he advised, “don't hesitate to stop and ask your gasoline dealer.” Labor Day driving. Mr. Snar ger concluded, “can be a pleasure —mot a headache—if you plan your trip completely beforehand.” United States citizens spend about one-fourth of their income for food.
