CONDITIONS OF
ROADBUILDING
ARE IMPROVED
Activities of Engineering Ex-
pertinent Station Highway
Laboratory Are
Increasing.
ARE RECEIVING SAMPLES
Field Inspectors Placed at Two
Brick Plants Are Test
ing Material for
Federal Work.

AS an indication Of the increased &C
tiviiy in road construction in Missouri
this sprng, work in the Engineering EX
pertinent Station Highway Laborstor,
has greatly increased during the last few
weeks" said Mr. H. A. LaRue. testing
engineer of the Sisie Highway Depart
meni here at the University in an inter
view this morning. THE number Of
samples of road materials. such as ce
ment, sand. stone, gravel and brick re-
ceiyed in the past two months is greater
than the total number of samples re-
ceived during the previous two years"
During the last two years, according to
Mr.. LaRue the road building program in
the State Of Missouri has been greatly
hsmpered by high prices of materials,
shortage Of labor and railroad ear short
age. This situation was at an acute stage
last spring which limited the bidding, on
jobs and prevented the letting Of any
great number of contracts.
Conditions are now much improved
since prices Of road materials have been
reduced, the car shortage is not as seri-
Gus as il was a year ago and contractors
inform US that labor for road cOnstruc-
iion is more plentiful than it has been
for years.
The amount Of materials required for
use on road construction at the present
time has necessitsied placing field in
spectors at two brick plants for testing
brick for federal aid road work. Ii has
also been deemed expedient to have three
cement cmpsnies set aside at their plants.
bins Of capacities ranging from 5000 to
10000 barrels, for exclusive use of the
State Highway Department. These bins
are filled with cement from the mills,
samples are taken by the field inspectors
and sent to the laboratory in order that
requirements Of the specifications are met
before any Of the cement is shipped to
the projects for use This method Of
handling the testing of cement prevents
the difficulties which may arise from
testing cement after receipt on the job
and rejection Of material il it should fail
to pass the tests.
In view Of the enlarged program which
will develop wnen tine special session of
the Legislature has passed the laws for
the expenditures Of the $6O.000.OOO State
Road Bond Issue. plans are being made
for a much larger working force in the
testing department Atpresent there are
Eve men empoyed in the highway labo-
ratory, who are kept busy making tests
on samples for this seasons work.
Samples are being received from pro-
iects in all parts Of the state, represent.
ing practically all the modern types Of
road construction.
