SPEEDWAY PLAN
ASSUMES SHAPE
Engineer Reports and Commit
tee Will Meet Today to Or
ganize Company.
TOLL SCHEME is DROPPED
MOST OF STOCK IN NEW COM
PANY ALREADY PLEDGED.

The automobile boulevard between Salt
Lake City and Saltar beach promises TO
be a reality before many more months
have passed. F. A Darrenougue, the en-
gineer whom the Salt Lake Automobile
club employed to survey the proposed
route of the speedway, returned from the
field yesterday and made his report TO
the clubs committee last night at the
Commercial club.
The route surveyed by Mr. Dare
nougue and his party begins at the Red
wood road. about a mile and half west
of the Jordan river, and runs directly
west a distance of twelve and Ealt
miles to the edge of Great Salt lake. The
road is to be built on the north side of
the railroad track. and viii be on the
same grade. 1t will be twelve feet dis
tant from the railroad track and will have
a road surface of thirty-two feet in
width.
This afternoon at . O'Clock the commit
tee from the Salt Lake Automobile Clue
will meet in the office of Dr. ". +. Beer
for the purpose of organizing the com
psny to build the speedway. The plan
outlined by DR.. Beer last night was that
a company, which viii possibly be known
as the Automobile association, be lnCor-
poTated for 10000, divided into LOU
shares of preferred stock at par value
of $10G each. Common stock will also be
issued by the company, but only hold
ers of preferred stock viii receive divi-
dends or profits of the company.
No Toll Proposition.
When the road to Saltair was first pro-
posed there was talk of making it posi-
BILE for any one to use the road on pay
ment of toll 1t has now been decided
that the road shall not be open to the
use of any person not holding at least
one share of stock in the speedway asso-
cation. Persons holding stock in the
company will be issued coupon tickets ad-
hitting them to the beach at the rate of
121z cents for each person, OF just half the
amount of the regular admission
From the estimate given the promoters
of the company by Engineer DarrenOugUe.
the road will cost somewhere between
$4,000 and SIS 600. The grand stand to be
erected near SaltaiT beach will cost be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000, and will have a
seating capacity of 1000 persons II Is
ed by May Is. The money with which
to build the road will be raised by the
sale of stock The greater part of the
stock has been already pledged.
SHELTERS viii Help.
The smelter companies at Garfield are
eager for the road and have agreed to
build a road from SaltaiT beach to Gar
field. The county comm isSiOnerS have
also agreed to put lhe road which runs
from the smelters to Fourteenth South
and State streets in shape. BY the build
ing of these two additional roads a cir
cult will be made around Salt Lake City
about forty miles in length, with good
roads all the way.

Statement of Tawney.

During the sessions Chairman Tawney
of the appropriations committee in the
house declared that the expenditures of
the government had at no time except in
war increased as rapidly as during the
last eight years. This condition was
caused, he declared, by popular and ex-
ecutive demands upon congress for ap-
preparations for the exercise of rights and
functions belonging exclusively to the
states. and by the abnormal and unnec-
essary war expenditures in time of peace,
Appropriations during the last eight
years, including the fiscal year 1910. ne
said, were equal to s7,007, S39, 1S3, and he
declared that at the end of the present
fiscal year there would be a deficit of
$780, 100000. He severely criticised the ex-
ecutive branch for submitting estimates
of expenditures far in excess of estimates
of receipts.
