was done with this preparation. which
costs about 500 a mile to apply, not
only keeps down the dust but also over
comes to a large extent the condition
| known as 'washb0ard. -
Interrogated as TO what causes the
.swashboard - effect, MIR. Dix said that
lit is now generally accepted that it IS
caused by motor vehicles travelling at
| hiah speed, the effect of the traction of
: the gravel road being to produce the
| wavv condition in the road 1t has been
! found that this washboard'' effect is
confined to straightaways and fats
where the motor vehicles are accns-
| toned To operate at high speed. The con
dition is seldom found on curves or hills.
! Coarse gravel is more susceptible to
| the washboard' effect, also. In fact :,
il has been found BY continued expert
mentatiOn that the hardest grayels are
not the best for road building The soft
gravels build the best surfaces at a
lesser cost
Penalty for Non Maintenance.
Under the new federal road law, if
/ any state fails To maintain its federal

may. after due notice has been given,
| have the road in question repaired and
charge the expense to the federal road
money due that state. Then the state
viii be unable To Get any further fed
cral aid money until il has repaid the
/ federal government the money which
was expended by the government on the
repair work, and this money paid by the
state to he federal government viii not
be returned 10 that state rs federal aid
/ but viii re rc-distributed among the
states. thus penalizing the state which
i has failed 10 maintain its roads.
/ Mr. Dix explained the plan of allot-
ment of federal aid funds to the states
and also the allotment plan of the state
| To the various towns. He said that
! Chittendeu county has now had all the
money that Is available for its use on
federal aid work up To the appropriation
under the latest federal aid law. This
appropriation remains available un to

In reply 10 Il query as TO the relative
fcost OF building concrete, bituminous

sioncr Dix said that this varied greatly
on accnunt of the cost of cXcavat ION. the
availability OF material, etc Exclusive
of excavation. drainage, bridges. etc. the
commissioner said that concrete roads

Of state under The Wilson adminstra-
ton. will close their contest for the
democratic nomination for United States
senator tonight. The primaries are to

Veteran politicians agree that this
contest has been one Of the most bit
ter waged in the state in years. and the
result viii bc IN doubt until the entire
count y in. Secretary Hoover and his
record as national food administrator
during the war. the League az Nations
and other issues opposed by Reed in the
senate formed the basis for the Breck-

Breckenridge point out that even former
President Wilson felt the sting of the
typical Reed wit and oraiory when he
appealed 20 the voters of the state to de-
feat Reed aS delegate to the demo-
cratic national convention in 1920.
The Reed supporters expect many
votes from the ranks Of the ex-soldiers
because of his fight for 4 national sol
diers' bonus. This presumption was
given added strength last night when
an appeal was sent ont by group Of
disabled soldiers appealing TO the women
Of the state to support Reed.
