STATE ENGINEER
 BUSY WITH PLANS

PHOENIX, Ariz.. June %
 There is no busier man in Arizona
 than State Engineer Lamar Cobb
 In order to expedite the work of
 his office he has divided the state
 into two districts, and he will have
 an assistant in charge of each. John
 Barlow of Tucson has been made one assistant and placed in charge
 of the northern division, which in- cludes Yavapai, Mohave. Coconino.
 Apache and Navajo counties. The other position as assistant has been
 offered to J. M. Ru,hrauff, also of
 Tucson. who has declined.
 The new law will bring in abou, S2sO.OO0.' said Mir Cobb in a recent
 statement This money is to be spent for the building of new high ways, not for the maintenance of old ones. Seventy-five per cent of the money raised by this tax in each county is to Dc spent in the county paying it. This money will be spent under the direction of the board of supervisors They will consult with the state engineer in doing this way. The boards of su- pervisors will determine what they want to build and then they will Tel the state engineer know their plans lt is up to him to see that good work is done as far as the engineering part is concerned and that the road money is not wasted on building branches
 '1 have refrained from giving any advice regarding what roads should be built l will not say what think should be done until after the super visors have agreed among them selves But I wan, to help.
 The money must be used in building new roads and not in the construction of bridges and oulverts and old roads. The object of the law is to provide for the construc- tion of new roads
 "I think the law is good one and that it will result in many, fine roads eventually being built in Ari- | zona. This money will be coming III every year, anu Wnilc " is nOt q large sum, i, will go a long way in getting good roads built in the state
 Work will probably start at Tue son and proceed to Andrade's ranch. where the grading for the highway built by Territorial Engineer J. R. Grand commenced. lt is believed | that S5000 will cover all the ex- penses of putting the road in first class condition from Tucson to the Cochise county line. Five thousand more will be spent between Tucson and Florence and the remaining Ss00O on ,he road io Nogales
 According to plans recently out lined by Engineer Cobb, the build ing of that section of the state high way to connect Bisbee and Tucson will be resumed early in July. About sl5,0O0 will be spent on that stretch | of road under the direct supervision of Engineer Cobb and the Pima county board of supervisors.
