COUNTY GRAVEL BUNKERSI

In = statement 20 the Times

In his statement. Thomp-
son said:
pierce county had to use 11,-
225 cubic yards of sand and grav-
ell this summer In the paving of
Pacific Highway to American
lake by county forces. This ma
lowest competitive price obtain
able would have cost the county
over So cents per cubic yard
loaded into wagons ready for dis
tribution at Lakeview. The low
est price at which the county was
able to obtain $3.50 cubic yards
of material for the paving of the
Hill road to Puyallup built by
county forces last year at a saw
ing of $2,50O under lowest bid
from contractors. was over 80
cents per cubic yard I. o. b. trucks

But this year we built some

land should) and produced ga
coo cubic yards at a cost of only
1872 cents per cubic yard, includ-
ing 10 per cent interest and de-
probation on the plant; and the
plant and supply IL good for ten
years to come.
THE saving on the 10,225 GU

therefore to $3.50. Also s,515

The profit of s7.T2S.ff

been the same whether the
county agreed TO furnish ali

ty road paving, material st
80 cents per cubic yard, 47.a
cents per cubic yard, or even
entirely free of cost As Is usu-
ally done i'm many states and

son that the contractors I'm
making their bids figure

iDgly and Furthermore add

Thus the county might better
have offered the gravel and sand
