A DOUBLE TRACK FOR THE USE
OF PUBLIC

Monroe. La-Good road advocates
are watching a new type of highway
construction in Ouachita parish. Last
spring a half-mile of the new type
was built near this city on the Mon
roe Columbia road This fall two
thirds of mile is being built as a
link in the Dixie Overland Highway.
in West Monroe.
The new type is based on the prin-
clple of doubletrack railroad, un-
der what is known as the Moore pa
tent. The inventor Mr.. Moore, was
formerly construction engineer of the
Atlantic division of the Southern Pa
ciftc railroad.
In the construction work under way
in West Monroe, the reinforced con-
crete tracks are made with molds,
and with the exception Of the con
crete mixing machine the work is
done entirely by hand labor The
double concrete tracks are made so
that they will accommodate the wheels
OF all vehicles.
The intervening space between the
concrete tracks is filled with gravel,
rolled and given a tarvia covering.
This gives hard surface to the en-
tire road The road rs built with
double tracks so that vehicles travel
ing in one direction will not inter
fere with those travelling in the op-
posite direction.
The half-mile built on the Monroe
Columbia road last spring cost $4,000.
The two-thirds of a mile under con
struction in West Monroe will cost
S14, 2S0.

TRAVELLERS AID
SOCIETY HELPS
15ONL0NC TRIP
Trend Of Emigrants Arriving in
v. s. Mostly Toward Pacific,
Officials Say.

Fifteen foreigners en- route TO Cal
Iiornia were taken in charge Mon
day by representatives Of the Trav-
elers' Aid Society at the Union Sta.
ton. They were Greeks, Italians.
Slovaks and Germans. After exam.
ming their papers and passports, the
society's representatives made the
proper train connections for the
party, advised them how best to pro-
tect themselves, and then placed
them on train bound for the West.
Then the Travellers Aid Society In
California was notified by wire.
more emigrants are bound for
California than any other part OF
the country" said Mrs. w. +. Van
Ripper, executive secretary OF the
Washington society THE strange
part Is that our own immigration
Is now coming East, while the i'm.
migration from Europe Is to the
West-where they all seem to pros
per. Between forty and fifty for.
eIgners pass through the Union Sta.
ton each day, AMI they are all. or
nearly all, bound for California"
Nearly all the immigration for the
West passes through Washington,
and It is up to. the Washington
Travellers Aid Society to see that It
is properly handled. In New York
the soc,ety's representatives have
command OF twenty.six languages,
but Washington is not so fortunate
However, 1t is seldom that the So
GETTY cannot meet the demands.
The Washington Travellers AID
Society Is maintained by voluntary
contribution on the part OF wash
ington citizens. The terminal com.
pany, recognizing the tremendous
public service given by the society,
has contributed 1000 to its work.
Several more thousands Of dollars,
however, are necessary to keep the
work at it's present high rate OF eff
ficiency, and Mrs. Van Ripper Is con-
fident that the need will be met by
the public spirited citizens of the
city.
