The board Of county commission

accordance with the request of menl-

State Engineer Johnson the right to
appoint his own inspectors on the

This is the outcome Of the con-
troversy as to whether sufficient
cement is being put into the concrete

inspectors on each job, but the good

wanted qualified engineers as inspec-
tors. (

Paving May Be Relaid.
Lincoln, Aug. 5.-(Special.) 1.-The
last three-fourths of mile of Lin
coin highway paving laid to date in
Douglas county will have to be torn
Up and relaid because Of shortage i'll
the cement content of the base, ac-
cording to unofficial reports making
the rounds here.
Three and one-half miles of the
highway are paved. Tests on the
first mile should be completed soon
and present indications are that they
will reveal specified cement content.
However, when the base of opera
tions was moved at the completion
of the first two and. three-quarters
miles, the plans of mixing also were
changed and the alleged shortage OF
cement in the base appeared.
Quality Undetermined.
Quality of the two and three-quar-
ters miles paved first cannot thus
be determined positively until the
state tests are complete but it is be-
lieved to be up to specifications.
This is likewise true for the. last
three-fourths of a mile. The result
Of the tests on this will be late be-
cause it is the last paving laid.
Officials here who started the paw
ing controversy with the Douglas
county commissioners declined to
make any definite statement regard
ing the possible relaying Of this last
three -fourths OF mile.
