COOLEY TO
TEST CITY BRICK
Only Two Makes Meet the Standard
Of 20 in Second Rafting by
Engineer.

Vastly different results than were
shown in the first rattler tests OF
paving brick made by the city engin-
eer, last week. were obtained In sub
sequent tests. made during the past
week, according TO the report sub
mitted by the engineer to the common
council. Tuesday night.
In the original tests, Bessemer was
tho only brick which showed an
abrasion OF less than 20 per cent.
which Is fixed as a limit by several
cities using the rattler, while two
brands OF brick. Wassall and Champion,
showed upwards OF SO per cent abra.
sion. In the tests reported to the
council. Tuesday night. the highest per
centage OF abrasions shown was 26 SO,
credited to the Novelty.
Wassal showed 26.I8 and Champion,
1880. Massilon was lowest with a
percentage OF 1913 and Bessemer
next, with 1898. Other results were:
Speedway. 25.92; Wooster. 1888;
Townsend. 24.02; Medal, casa; Mel
sonviiie, 2295.
tween the tests, the results of the
tests to be made by Mayor Thompson.
with an engineer OF his own choos-
ing, are awaited with interest.
Engineer McC ormiek, In hts report,
said that the brick had been secured
at different paving jobs, and that In
structions had been given the men
delegated to select the samples to
take any brick that would be accepted
by an ordinary inspector. The tests.
he declared. were made In strict COM
pliance with the specifications In
dorsed and recommended by the COM
mittee on technical investigation OF
the National Paving Brick Manufac-
turers' association, Feb Z. 1911.
On recommendation of the special
committee, composed OF the commit
tee on streets and claims and ac-
counts, the council authorized the
city controller TO employ Prof. M. z.
Cooley, OF the University OF Michi-
gan, 20 investigate the brick question
In Detroit. The purposes of the in
yestigation, as stated In the resolu-
ton offered by Aid Grindley and un-
anlmously adopted by the council, are
as follows: ITO determine whether
inferior paving brick or brick not con-
forming to specifications is and has
been furnished to the city of Detroit
and whether such inferior paving
brick or brick not conforming TO speci-
fications has been laid by the depart
ment of public works; also whether
the kind and quality of limestone and
Stag used In paving concrete work
are the proper materials for such pur-
pose; also IL tar-pitch or grout are
the best and most adaptable filters
for brick pavements; also II the old
concrete foundations where natural
cement was formerly used on streets
lately resurfaced with brick Is ac-
countable to obtain the disintegration
of the brick, and such other detail
information as In their judgment may
be necessary to properly inform the
city, and report the same to the CON-
mon council.
The controller Is directed to pay
the expenses of the investigation out
of any available moneys in the city
treasury.

CARRY YOUR OWN CUP.
II VIII Soon Be Necessary II You
Want a Drink Of Water.

AS yet, the order issued Monday
by the state board of health for the
abolition OF the public drinking clp
in Michigan, has not been generally
enforced. The railroad trains con-
tinue to supply. cups for the conven-
fence OF their patrons and the parks
and public buildings in Detroit still
have them attached to drinking foun-
tains. II is expected, however, that
the regulation will gradually be OBJ
served here and throughout the state.
On railway trains waxed paper cups
will be sold for a cent apiece, but II
Is believed that many passengers will
carry folding metal cups when travel
ing.
Health Officer Kiefer, of Detroit,
strongly Endorses the movement,
pointing out that the Detroit board Of
health abolished drinking cups from
the public schools some time ago
and established sanitary fountains
throughout the city.
There is no state law for the aboli-
tlon of the drinking cup, but the
state board feels that IL has power to
put II out OF commission.
