II sound Investment
Asphalhc Concrete Highways

When the people of Maricopa County
invest $4,500,000 in highways they should
be certain that the type of pavement
adopted is one which will give the best
returns on the investment. The Asphaltic
Concrete type has already proved its worth
by years of successful service in many
communities from the Canadian to the
Mexican borders.
Asphaltic Concrete pavements consist
of asphalt and mineral aggregate (crushed
rock and sand) heated separately, mixed
at a central plant and laid while still hot.
When cool within "a hours) the pave
ment is ready for USE This does away
with the continuous use of bad detours
during construction and consequent in
convenience to motorists.
Asphaltic Concrete is tough, resilient
pavement we'll fitted to withstand the
pounding of modern traffic.
It is durable, has negligible maintenance
cost and reasonable first cost.
Maricopa County will take wise step
in adopting this type of pavement for
the new $4,5OO,0OO highway construction
program. Money invested in Asphaltic
Concrete pavement pays dividends in sat
isfactory service.

WARM CONGRATULATIONS

Washington. Sept. Warm
qualifications were expressed by
administration officials tonight
when informed that the policies
committee of the anthracite opera
tors at a meeting in Philadelphia
had agreed to accept the Pepper
Reed compromise plan for settling
the strike in that industry. 1t was
predicted that this development,
which was accepted as marking the
end of the hard coal tieup after five
months duration, would not only
have a marked effect on the gen
eral industrial situation. but would
go far toward prompt return of q
prosperous condition in the ma.
tiohs business.
Word of the acceptance OF the
operators committee was relayed
at once to the White House for the
information of President Harding.
While no statement was forthcom-
ing from the executive. he was un-
derstoOd to hold the view that res
toration of production in the anth-
racite fields would have an .imme-
diate beneficial reaction.
While the compromise so far has
been accepted only in principle by
the miners representatives, some
cabinet members were said to have
been authoritatively informed that.
as adopted by the operators, 1t WAS
entirely acceptable to the men who
have been in charge of the strike
for the unions.
