Chamber OF Commerce committees
are working IN an effort TO formu.
late suitable plans for the linking
OF ChIckasha and Cement with a
hard surfaced road. according TO n
statement made this morning by the
secretary at chamber headquarters.
This movement was launched az
means OF matching the work
along the same line which IL now

reaching the Chickasha chambers

at Cement last Friday at which
time committees were named and
instructed to star work immediate.
ly toward the proposition Of calling
an election for a bond issue in that
township. The purpose OF the bond
issue. as explained, was to hard sur
face the road from Cement. east
10 the Grady county line.
In case the Cement road boosters
are successful in putting over their
plans for hard surfacing this stretch
Of road, II Is shown that big step
will have been taken toward link
ing Chickasha with the oil fields
at Cement. If the Cement people
want the hard surfaced road from
Chickasha to Cement, this city
should get busy on some proposi-
tion that would meet them half way
or little more, II is believed by
the chamber committeeman who are
working on the tentative plans.
II is shown that with the abun-
dance of pock already blasted out
at the rock hill and with a crusher
installed at that place. the cost of
building the road would be lessened
to degree. For years Chickasha
has been talking about hard sur
faced road to Cement and with the
work being done on that end of the
line, Chamber of Commerce commit
teemen here are endeavoring to
work out an idea that would get
the benefit of that much work in
linking Chickasha with the Cement
district. It is expected that plans
will be in shape for presentation
at the mid-winter meeting of the
chamber to be held at the Elks club
on January 80.

tion, it was decided that delegation

merce rooms tomorrow morning at
10 o'clock for the trip to Cement.
