| Although the commission received
bids for laying an additional ten feet
of gravel for widening the White
Horse pike from Hammonton to Alb
secon, a stretch of about 13 miles, 1t
now seems likely that the contract as
it now stands would necessitate cut
ting down number of large oak
trees near Hammonton.
Following an investigation 1t is pro-
posed to alter the specifications 50
that at this particular point the pave
ment will be 80 feet instead of As
feet. 1t is also thought that curb
and gutter near Hammonton would
be feasible. Final action will depend
upon whether or not Hammonton will
take care of the drainage problem.
