The Bridgeport evening farmer. [volume] (Bridgeport, Conn.) 1866-1917, 1917-07-31

Patented pavements as a class and
Warrenite in its particular applica-
ton to Bridgeport and the all classes
Of roads irrespective Of conditions
and grades receive a rude shock in
the current issue Of New England
Roads, official organ of the Connect
cut Good Roads Association.
The organization after denouncing
as "wilful and malicious untruth.''
an attempt made by unknown persons
to spread a report. that the Connect
cut Good Roads Association had en-
dorsed warrenite in Norwalk and
South Norwalk, SAYS that there is
not a patented pavement laid today
that cannot be duplicated for much
less money than is paid for the pat
ented type"
It gives Bridgeport as a specific
illustration of the asserted fact in
this unmistakable language:
ITO illustrate by Connecticut
