BALK HIGHWAY BOARD

Explanation of the course OF the

the Ely-McGill road was given to the
White Pine News last night by H. NJ.

neer. He told Of having taken up
the subject of designation Of the Lin
coin highway in Nevada as a federal
aid project with Mr.. Mcdonald bureau
chief at Washington, with DR..
Hughes, who is head of the San
Francisco branch, and Mr.. Sweetzer,
the latters subordinate.
In an extended conference with
Mr. Sweetzar, Mr.. 10y after being
told that it would be necessary to
show connection with the Utah
highway system, reminded Mr.. Sweet
zer of the work on stub up by Me
Dermott, north of Winnemucra that
between Ely and Phoebe AMI between
Phoebe and Caliente. all by federal
aid and without interstate ccnnec-
tions, and Mr.. Sweetzer then thought

and he also was ush ared into the Of

The contention of Hughes and Nc
Donald is that tho White Pine COM

KEYSTONE CONTRACT
LET TO FALL0N FIRM

The contract for the new grade,
including surfacing and making a
completed road of the Ely-Keystone
project on the Lincoln highway, has
been let by the state board to the
Nevada Contracting Company of Fal-
lon for $92,3S6. The engir GERS es-
innate was $92,726.
The BID of the Ogden firm for $751;
900 was rejected, reasons not being
here, but the assumption is that the
board considered it to be too low
to complete the work in the limited
time between now and winter and do
Z good job.
The Fallon firm had just completed
il contract ON the highway in the
vicinity of Illipah and F. E. Gibbs,
it's foreman, was starting to move to
the home town for the winter, when
last Sunday a telegram came telling
OF securing the new contract.
Consequently the removal to the
Ely work began and breaking ground
for the new grade will follow in a
few days.

WENDOVER HIGHWAY COST
GROSSLY UNDERESTIMATE

The state highway department of
Utah only underestimated the cost
of the Victory highway between
Knolls and Wendover by more
than half when il represented
to Secretary Wallace that it would
cost 100000. This week, ac
cording to the confession of the
Salt Lake Tribune, tho bids for
the subgrades, only two in number,
were $48S,636.41 and $530,117, and
that newspaper, champion of the
Wendover route, says the only al
tentative is to reject them. 1t gives
the further information that this
does not include the delivery o.
gravel, both bids requiring that the
state deliver it to the edge of the
Western Pacific tracks 115 feet
away This would bring the cost
up to more than $65o,O00, and to
This must be added the further es,
timated sum of $66,121 for construc
tion Of subgrade and drainage struc-
lures. This latter work is under
way.
To these would have to be added
10 per cent for engineering and super
visory costs to the state and federal
government, and it may be seen that
before the road could be completed
in the manner promised the cost
would reach 100000 easily, and
probably the sum would be nearer
81 100000 when the time came to
pay it,
Says the Tribune in mourning over
the occurrence in the form of news
story:
Bids received for the construc-

tion of Subgrade and structures on
thirty-four miles of the Knolls-
Wendover section Of the east and
west transcontinental highway in
Utah, and fer the gravel curfacing
of the entire 1856 miles, were dis
appointingly high: and, while the
road commission has not as yet
passed officially on the tenders, it
is quite probable that they will be
rejected and that the specifications
will be revamped and the work re-
advertised in an effort to get a
lower bid.
On the same page Of the Tribune
appears another article setting forth
the fact that the Western Pacific
must broaden its roadbed around
the shore of Great Salt Lake to pre-
vent waves from sweeping clear over
it and carrying it away. 1t is de-
clared that the road was constructed
when the lake was at lower aver
age level than in recent years, and
since its rise tremendous damage
has been done repeatedly. The So
called desert section between Knolls
and Wendover in reality is part o.
the lake in winter, spfing and
early summer, and the waves do the
same damage there, as may be seen
by riding by in the railway cars and
noting the destruction wrought upon
the highway that couple of years
ago was announced as being complete

tanning basement for manual

class and study rooms on the first
floor, accommodating 100 pupils. 1t

additional teachers.

Campaign OVER IN SIX DAYS;
WORK NOW OR NOT At ALL

The end is in sight. The White
Pine News big $2500 circulation
campaign is on the home stretch.
Only a few days remain and the win
ners will have their prizes.
Who will win the Chevrolet Sedan
is the leading topic in Ely, and other
sections of the county as well, as
the campaign rapidly nears the final
day and hour. There are bound to
be some surprises in this campaign,
for some of those who are not at the
top of the list today are out working
to pass the leaders if such thing
is possible $50, if you are one of the
leaders now you had better make
every minute of the coming week
count in subscription getting, or be
satisfied with one of the lesser
prizes. Not to take advantage OF
every moment means that you are
letting the golden opportunity q,
your life slip away right when you
have the grand prize within your
grasp.
IcfSOudl L iluC NkdA1Cot
A striking feature of the last few
days is the personal pride that has
become manifest! Several df the
candidates have voiced a determine
tion to win at all hazards. One says
she owes it to her friends that have
so loyalty helped her up to this time
to put forth every effort so that when
the final hour comes everything will
have been done that could have been,
and nothing left undone to better
her chances of winning the grand
prize. So, as a basis Of civic and in
dividual pride, and for the reason
that the cash difference between the
first and second prizes is several hun
dred dollars, you can expect to see
desperate struggle on all sides be
fore the prizes are awarded on Octo-
ber 18th.
Up to Candidates
1t rests entirely with each and
every candidate as TO the prize they
win. If you are expecting to slide
along and depend upon your totals
at the present time TO carry you
through you are doomed to disap-
pointment, others are working and
will pass you right by. Do not let
overconfidence or encouragement
those two evils that destroy success
seize you. 1t is better to win the
first prize by million than to lose
by a thousand. The goal of the CAM
paign is only six days away yet there
is plenty of time for any Of the can
didates to increase their credits by a
million. If you can trust your own
judgment as to your competitors
strength, based on fact ard observa.
tion. lay your plans accordingly, for
there is yet time to stem the tide of
defeat and turn 1t into sweeping vic
tory.

Alexander Carpenskiy An
other South River Man is
Held in $500 Bail
HOLD WITNESS ALSO

William Langfeld and Alexander
Carpenskl, both CT South River.
were arrested this morning by Chief
of County Detectives Ferd A. David
and Chief Eberwein, of the South
River police, in the Perth Amboy
bootlegger-police shakedown case.
Langfeld is accused of being the
bootlegger who claimed he paid $2SS
to two local policemen, Patrolmen
Louis Hansen and Lawrence Mar
mon when stopped by the officers
while delivering three cases Of
whlskey.
Langfeld and Carpensli were talk
en- to New Brunswick and arraigned
by Prosecutor Stricken at once be-
fore County Judge Kirkpatrick who
fixed Langfeld's bail at $1,000 ano
that of Carpenski at $500. Lang
field is charged with violating tho
prohibition enforcement act aid
Carpenski has been arrested as a
material witness as he is said to
have been in the automobile with
Langfeld at the time the two police
men demanded $500 from them for
protection" against arrest.
Although Detective David had
promised that this case will be car
ried the limit, he never divulged the
name of the South River bootlegger
who came TO him. accompanied BY
another pman prominent in this
county, and told the story of how
he had been shaken-down by the
two Perth Amboy cops. His move
this morning in placing both Lang
field and Carpenski under arrest
came as a surprise to both men.
In stating the case to the court
Prosecutor Stricken told of Lang
field coming to the prosecutors of
fee and telling his story of the
shake.down to Chief David. When
Langfeld was instructed to again
come to the prosecutors office in
order that the matter might be pre-
pared for the grand jury. Prosecu-
tor Stricken said he failed to appear
A few days later a friend of Lang
field called Detective David on the
telephone and requested the county
detective chief to drop the case as
Langfeld had decided that he could
not positively ientify the two Perth
Amboy police officers.
Langfeld was formerly employed
at the Michelin Tire Company plant
in Milltown. He suffered an injury
there and did not return to work,
the county authorities say. Carpen-
ski, according to the detectives. has
a police record having been charged
with breaking and entering.
Now that these two men have
been taken into custody it is likely
that the case will go before the
grand jury at their next session. No
action has been taken against the
two accused policemen as yet, both
working daily on their regular beats
Langfeld, in his original statement
to CHIEF David, in which he com
plained of being shaken down by the
policemen, said he had three cases
of Canadian Club in his car. This

BONUS STAND TAKEN

washington Correspondents of The
Perth Amboy News.)

WASHINGTON, Dec. 14:-Sena-
tor Walter e. Edge is in favor of the
Mellon tax reduction plan or any
other equitable plan that will save
money for the taxpayers; but he is
against the soldier bonus bill ana
has not changed his position at all
since it was before the senate last
year when he voted against 1t.
This puts the two New Jersey sem
Stors, of opposite parties, in the
same position on the two most i'm
portant questions before congress
today-taxes and bonus. Senator
Edward ]. Edwards issued a state
ment a few days ago in which he
declared he was for the Mellon tax
reduction plan, but against the SOL
dier bonus.
1t appears that there has been a
misunderstanding of Senator Edge S
position on the soldier bonus. From
newspaper reports of the speech
Senator Edge made in New Jersey
last June the general public seems
to have got the impression that be-
cause of the settlement made with
Great Britain for payment of the
war debt Senator Edge hal decided
to vote for the bonus. The Ameri-
ington believed so and since his June
speech have him listed among thos,
senators who had voted against it
at the last congress session, but
would now be for it,
Senator Edge states that he said
nothing in his June speech which
would warrant anyone in believing
he had Switched.
He will vote against the soldier
bonus bill unless a sales tax or other
revenue plan is adopted to raise the
money without placing a further
direct tax on business, Senator Edge
stated in a circular letter he is send
ing out today to thousands OF people
in New Jersey who have written
him regarding the Mellon plan and
soldier bonus.
He considers the necessity for re-
ducing taxes so important, he states
that he will oppose any effort to
