Approximately 30 miles of paving.
 This was laid by years as follows:
Total. i............s15.sss.s7 .

It is only question of a very short time until paving repairs will be required upon some of these streets. Last year it became neces- sary to entirely resurface South Gen. tral avenue below the tracks and also spend a considerable amount in the repair of West Washington from 7th avenue to the capitol. In my opinion before a year has elapsed. this DOT tion of West Washington will require resurfacing.
 sincerely believe that the time has arrived for this city to make plans for its own plant and that the saw ing effected in the repair and resur- facing of West Washington street will pay a large share of the initial outlay for the complete equipment necessary This need is in addition to the need arising from the high prices for new construction
 In order for the city to enter into the new construction field it would be necessary for the city to obtain legislative authority to acquire a re volving fund to carry each job to completion until reimbursed by a special form of assessment bond to be issued. It would be necessary to change the procedure somewhat but such a plan could be worked out, and my experience in the asphalt paving business for many years has proven to me that a municipally operated paving plant can be made to pay, and the saving to the taxpayers of this city to be effected thereby is worth their serious consideration and i efforts for accomplishment
 The size of the revolving fund need not be large With the city's credit back of 1t small fund could be made to answer the purpose. how ever. in my opinion. it would be ad visable to maintain this department with its own finances and a revolv- ing fund of $50, ,0o0o0 would be ample The total investment in the depart ment would approximate $100.000. co
 For purposes of comparison let us
 make a few estimates with one mill lion dollars in improvements as g
 basis This includes curb. gutters

ID HOLD MEETING
 0N COTTON TARIFF

Throughout the Salt River valley an active interest is being shown in the coming mass meeting at the Y. M. c. A. stadium next Wednesday night when delegates will be selected 50 represent Arizona cotton interests at Washington. That the fight for an adequate tariff on long staple cot ton will be one to tax the resources and ingenuity of everyone interested is indicated in a telegram received from Senator Henry Ashurst.
 Tn addition to electing delegates to represent Arizona interests in the coming tariff fight there will be other important business taken up at the mass meeting. Questions concerning the marketing of long staple cotton now on hand and of caring for the coming crop will be discussed by ex- perts. In fact, the meeting pronises something of value for every cotton grower, buyer or dealer in the valley.

 This figure applied to the total yardage amounts to s23s. s.625-o % or approximately 24 per cent. There is no reason for any of these items to be necessary if the city undertakes the work itself, and in addition there the cost of the extras. Suppose the present work to be considered had to pay the entire cost of starring the paving plant we would use [ cents per so. yd. instead of the above $1-o61z and still save the property holder 14 per cent and more when all things are taken into consideration do not mean to leave the impres- sion that as far as a private con tractor Is concerned that the above items are unnecessary Private en- terprise Is entitled to a profit and at the same time the local branch must pay its share of the mainte- nance of general office with all the high costs that go with it. and fur ther, if the bonds are not readily saleable. there is the discount bur- den to be met There are. however. other overhead charges included aside from those stated and if every taxpayer can be saved g. 50 to s .00 per front foot as indicated for the usual width of . residence street he should be vitally interested and it is certainly worth his interest and ef- fort to bring it about. likewise as the 1 servants of the people we. the mem- bers of this Commission. should use our best efforts in their behalf.
 In concluding this section. gentle men. I desire to refer. briefly to . misapprehension that has come back to me through rumors. which is to the effect that I am prejudiced 1 against the paving contractors nd their type of pavement. This is wholly untrue for I number these gentlemen among my most respected friends, and consider them as most creditable representatives of the community. I have never seen . better class of pavement than is laid in Phoenix. These gentlemen are representatives of the most rep- utable companies and individuals against whom I have not the slight est criticism to offer- have no axe to grind nor interior motive to i satisfy Upon election to, this of- flee pledged to this people zealous fidelity to duty and when 1 can not fulfill that pledge my resignation will be forthcoming and I will retire to the side lines as a zealous booster for Phoenix
 Charities and Corrections The uniting of all charitable work 1 is earnestly to be desired and tho call is very urgent at this time. Our current budget contains aid for these organizations, which is with out question. an urgent necessity.

grading of the fine aggregate. With the expiration of these patents, the course aggregate type of pavement is open to unrestricted use, and the engineer has it within his power to modify the specifications along ra- tionai lines"
 While in Philadelphia I called at the offices of the Barber Asphalt Paving Company and requested prices on paving plants. Their Iro- quois Iron Works at Buffalo have the reputation of producing the best in paving equipment. The prices quoted f. o. D. Buffalo are approxi- mate only and given for the purpose of estimating with the assurance that they are maximum prices and might be subject to 10 per cent reductfe T. The prices on the various types are based on the square yard capacity per day and the units contained in fthe plant. These quotations were as follows:
 800 sq.yd. 2-unit asphalt pl|nt s17.700
 500 sq.yd. 3-unit asphalt plant 1S.s00 1250 sq.yd 3-unit asphalt plant 25,350 These plants are portable. By eliminating the wheels on the plant and kettles a saving of approximately 1 SS00.00 could be made. | I am informed that these plants are capable of exceeding their rated capacities from forty to fifty per cent and. that the. 500 sq. yd.>plant would meet all requirements for our city.
 The quotations on steam rollers were as follows:
 l i Macadam wheeled roller with
 scarifier $6.O00 1 8 Ton Tandem Roller for rolling
 asphalt $4,zuu The initial outlay for fire wagon, lsmoothers, hampers. rakes. shovels,
 cutters. push brooms and sandals ap- proximate $400.
 For hauling. a special type of wa gon is used or a type of motor dump vehicle Perhaps $5.000.00 would be sufficient for this purpose.
 In addition certain grade and con crete equipment would be pecessary.
 Allowing for freight. installation, in- cidentals, purchase of site. etc. the
 entire cost. in my opinion. would not exceed s45.000.o0.

Referring to the budgets of the past few years it will be found that approximately one-third of the budg-
 ct. excepting those fixed items of interest, sinnking funds and cash basis, are expended under the super vision of the city engineer and su- perintendent of streets. In addition to handling these functions the en- gineer supervises the new water construction and the new sewer ex- tensions. This appears to me to be contrary to an efficient organization plan. There are too many activities involving a vast amount of detail tC
