While there Is nothing in the ma

State Engineer Proposes to Remove Distinctions With
 Cash on Hand

That the state engineers office is ready to make the -Bisbee highway safe by removing the rock points on the grade beyond the divide, T. the board of supervisors will agGvv to the use of money now available in the 75 per cent fund, is the tenor Of a letter written by Thomas Maddox, state engineer, to the board of super Visors.
 The Warren District Commercial club has endeavored to impress upon the board of supervisors the impor- i2nce of having this work done at the earliest possible date but the suprI- Visors have said that it would be neces- sary to wait until after July l, when next years 75 Der cent fund will be come available. It is believed that the following letter from Thomas Maddox to the board Of supervisors will clear the way for the early accomplishment of this work:
 We have received unmeI GUS re- quests from the Warren District Com mercial club to eliminate the object ionable points on the Bisbee-Tomb- stone highway. Our air compressor jack hammers, etc, now in use on the Vail-Empire branch road. will be re. leased within the next two weeks. We could ship drilling outfit to the Bisbee Tombstone road and enough powder to blow out these cuts. This should re. duce cost to minimum.
 We realize that there are no funds available for this work as the 75 SCI cent fund of Cochise county is all needed for the payments to contrac tors on the Benson-Vail and the Bisbee Douglas paving work. It is apparent at this time that these two JoDs VIII not receive firm estimate before July 1st. when next years 75 per cent fund will be available.
 If your honorable body is agree able we can, therefore, remove these rock cuts with money now available in the 75 per cent fund and take care of the unpaid portions of the contract left out of next years fund.-
