HAYDEN AFTER FUND Ii REPAIR BRIDGE
 AT SAl CARLOS
Congressman Wires That His Meas gre For 9eiiaf ls AGcpted by louse.-.n. ian Agent Believes That Engineers Should Make Re pert on Matter

Congressman Carl Hayden has al ready started movement for lfo re-opening the Gila-Graham county Preservation and this week induced of 1000 for increasing the length at Nachez The bill must now 90 to the senate before the money will be available.
 Telegrams to Frank L. Gatei, clerk of the Board of Supervisors. and to Lieut.. Ernest Stecker, super intendent of the San Carlos reser- yation, yesterday told the story of the action by the house. Both tele- grams were of the same import. That to MT. Gates reads: l Washington, D. C. Feb 4, 1916
 Frank l.. Gates,
 Clerk, Board of Supervisors, Globe, Arizona.
 l. House just adopted my amned- 1 ment to Indian appropriation
 bill, appropriating $17,OOO for
 three additional spans to bridge
 across Gila at Nachez. See
 today's congressional record.
 (Signed) CARL HAYDEN.
 Lieut.. Stecker in a telphone message to the Arizona Record sug- gested that the county have engineers make survey of the situation at once in order that report may be submit ted to congress. He believes that four spans, instead Of threo, will be necessary and tFat possibly the ap- 'propriation will have to be increased.
 During the recent storms the flood waters ii the Gila created havoc with the approaches of the Gila bridge. < great quantity of earth was washed away and the bridge rendered useless. This hap pened at q time when Lieut. Steck- CT had just completed spending the state fund with which the San Car los and Gila river bridges were connected up with the through high way. At the present time travel over that route is impossible.
 It is expected that the county au- thorities and local enthusiasts for good roads will take action immedia- tely.
