COUNTY COURTS HOLD
JOINT MEETING TO
SETTLE BRIDGE PLANS
Polk County Court Fayors
Structure To Cost Less
Than 100000

The county court of Polk county, ac-
companied by Roadmaster Waldo Finn,
of Polk county, is holding a joint meet
ing with the Marion county court this
afternoon to settle some vital problems
relative to the steel bridge across the
river at this place. 1t .-aa been admit.
ted for some time that a new bridge
was imperative but the question has
been one of finance with Polk county
which will provide one-third of the cost
of new structure.
At yesterday afternoon 3 meeting the
county courts decided to erect new
bridge as soon as possible, provided
they could put one up at cost within
the limits Of the Polk county Golfers.
Judge Teal, of Polk county, stated to-
day that his county could provide its
share of bridge that did not cost more
than 100000, but unless it was abso-
lutely necessary the Polk county court
hesitated to agree to share greater
burden of cost. The judges and com
missioners are Of the opinion that a
suitable bridge can be erected for less
than $235,000 which will carry all of
the traffic across the river for years
to come.
The highway commission submitted
plans whereby bridges might be built
across the river at cost as low as
$124,000 for a steel bridge with %
foot deck and timber approaches The
highway commission also submitted q
plan for a steel bridge with 80 foot
deck, two five foot sidewalks, and heavy
enough to carry a single line of street
railway at about 100000.
All of the members of the county
court are agreed that a concrete bridge
is better than steel bridge but the
question is whether or not the added
expense of concrete structure is prac
ticable at this time. Today the courts
are discussing the question of whether
or not they will let contractors furnish
plans and bids, whether or not they viii
require the state highway engineers t.
submit a design for bridge that will
cost less than 100000 and then adver
tise for bids, or whether they will at
tempt to build the bridge by day labor
Up to late hour this afternoon tn,
courts had come to no decision in tn,
matter and it is likely that anothei
meeting may be necessary before all Of
| the plans are completed
