FAVOR BRICK FOR
PAVING MATERIAL
Richmond Will Soon Have
More Than 5 Miles of
Brick Streets.
WORKS BOARD POLICY
Is to Use This Material
Charles Says 1t Is
More Durable.
WORKS BOARD POLICY

Although in the years previous to
1910, the beginning of the present city
administration, but 1852 miles of brick
street had been laid, there has been
2.48 miles of brick street completed
since 1910 and contracts have been let
for about 1.39 miles more brick streets
to be built as soon as possible. When
these are completed, nine per cent of
Richmond's streets will be paved with
brick.
City Engineer Charles stated today
that there would be a straight stretch
of more than two miles of brick
streets with the exception of two
squares from North street to North
H street when the Eighth street and
the hospital road improvements are
completed. Work was begun last year
on the hospital road and North Tenth
street. Contractors are expecting to
start work on Eighth street as soon
as the material arrives. This brick
roadway will then extend from the
road north of the hospital to South H
street, part of it having been laid
several years ago. With the present
brick paving and the 1.39 miles which
is now being made. there will be more
than two miles with only a break of
two squares.
Engineers View.
Since the beginning of the present
administration what brick streets have
been completed and those which are
now being made will make a total of
5.39 miles Of brick streets in the city
The policy of the municipal officials
and the board of works is to lay as
much brick as possible as this ia found
to make the best paving. City Engineer
Charles stated that he was much in
favor of brick for paving as it is much
cheaper than many other kinds of
paving and is more desirable.
Il would like to have all the main
thoroughfares paved with brick" said
Mr.. Charles. Brick for paving is su-
perior to asphalt in stability and wear
and is much cheaper. Other paving
materials do not give as much salts
faction as brick as most of them are
made to lessen the noise of the vehi-
cles and are not built for year. Every
street which has car tracks on it
should be paved with brick" said Mr..
Charles.
MIR. Charles also made a comparison
of macadam and brick streets. He
stated that in many cases where the
travel is light that macadam streets
are almost as suitable as brick. The
cost of making macadam streets is
small compared to the cost of paving
street with brick. 1t is necessary,
however. to repair macadam constant
ly, he said.
City officials state that it is the in
tention of the board of works to have
as many streets paved with brick as
the improvement appropriations will
allow without taking away from other
! improvements and repairs.

the members adjourned late in the ev-

Instead of letting separate contracts
for the improvements, repairs and the

chooses. In this way the board be-

Fire Escape Question.
Director Lee last night uttered a pro.
test against the old-style fire escapes
which is purposed to be installed upon
the different city school buildings. The
director does not favor the skeleton
type of escape, saying that it is not
safe for grown person to use in case
of fire, let alone a child. He said that
he expected to have child in the East
school before long, and that he did not
want to see him take chances by using
the old.style ladder. Mr.. Lee suggested
that the matter be reconsidered, and
that either the spiral way of escape be
selected or some other style that will
insure more safety to the school chill
dren, in the even tthey would be com.
PEELED to use them.
The following teachers were elected
last night: First grade, Highland
school, Ruth Dillon, of Estacada; math-
