That was then (1953)
From chapter 63:
In the highly federalized United States, since the Civil War at least, state boundaries have had a more sentimental than practical significance. On a modern highway, as the tourist passes from one state to another, he may not a change of speed-limit, though he will rarely for this reason change the speed at which he is driving.
This is now.
