MANUFACTURED ASPHALT
IS BEING INVESTIGATED
Municipal Engineers Watching for
Result of Capital Inquiry Into
Paving Material.

Municipal engineers throughout the
country are manifesting interest in the
decision that Washington is to reach
as to whether natural or manufactured
asphalt shall be used in new paving
work during the coming fiscal year.
The capital was one of the earliest
cities to acquire extensive asphalt
streets, and for the last few years has
used natural asphalt almost exclu-
sively.
Bids opened last week for the 1916
fiscal year paving, which calls for a
total expenditure of about s155,000.
revealed the fact that a manufactured
asphalt has been offered at II cents
less square yard than the price quot
ed for the natural product.
The Commissioners therefore must
decide whether the difference in price
would justify their experimenting with
a new substance. 1t is anticipated that
their decision may influence other mu-
inequalities in arranging for street paw
ing work.
Investigate Substitute.
What the Commissioners are most
concerned with is to ascertain some
thing about the durability of the man
ufactured asphalt as compared with
that of the natural. Capt. W. ID. "A.
Anderson, assistant engineer commis-
sioner, and c. B. Hunt, engineer OF
highways, are now inspecting streets
in Atlantic City and other municlpan-
ties where Montezuma asphait, man
ufactured product similar to that which
it is proposed to pave local streets
with. has been used. They expect 10
make a report within a few DAYS a.
the Commissioners are desirous ~, ~
awarding the new paving contract Win
as little delay as possible.
AS the Montezuma product mas Deeh
in use only very few years, the com
missioners will not have very extensive
data from which to make comparisons
as to durability. :,
Records as to street paving work IN
the capital, however, show that naturai
asphalt has proved durable for thirty-
Ave to forty years, and in many m
stances is still in good condition for
example, I street between 9th and loth
northwest was paved with natural as
nhalt in 1879 and has never been re-
surfaced.

public schools are entitled to all of the
education they can get in the high

but above that their training should be

trades people will not take in more
than one apprentice in their shops be-
cause by keeping down the supply of
finished workmen they are enabled to
keep up the high prices for their labor.

"Say, III bet any one here" in his
calm, quiet, deliberate way, "that |

each shot correctly without waiting for
