10 CALL FOR !
ROAD BIDS IN !,
next 30DAYS

Especial to The Argus.)

Alsdo. Oct. 1.-THE call for
bids for the heavy grading, bridges
and abutments on the five and one
half miles Of hard road north from
Aledo, will be issued within the
next 30 days." was the good news
brought to Aledo yesterday by SEN
ator Martin Carlson of Moline.
Senator Carlson in a very recent
conversation with Governor Len
Small was told that the highway
commission had approved the loca-
TONS and dedications on this Sec
ton Of road and that the an
nouncement would follow within
. few days. At the same time bids
will be called for on the sane
work on II miles extending from
Rock Island to the Whiteside coun-
t. line. This is also a part OF
state route three.
Senator Carlson's advice to Ale
Do and Mercer county was to Sc
cure the right of way just as soon
- the state engineers had made
q definite location, both north OF
Aedo and on the route toward
Little York. It is his experience
that the state authorities look with
favor on 'any locality which Sc
cures its fright Of way promptly.
Work Is in progress now securing
the right Of way for. a section Of
the road south of Milan but it is
doubtful II this can be completed
in time to be included with the two
other sections in the grading and
bridge contracts.
