GARRIS0NbRDCE
IS RECONSTRUCTED
IN HOUSE TUESDAY
Halvorson of Ward Succeeds in
Putting Bill Into General
Orders

Rejecting 9 majority committee re.
port to indefinitely postpone . bill
providing for construction Of q Mis-.
souri, river bridge near Garrison, the
house Tuesday chose to further deli.
berate on the matter. The measure
was placed In general orders where
the house. as q committee Of the
whole, win decide what to do with the
bridge proposal.
Leading the fight to kill the bill,
M. II. Lynch, Richland county indie
pendent, produced Z mass Of figures
purporting to show the inleasibility
OF erecting the bridge at this time.
H. L. Halvorson. Ward county In
dependent. offered q substitute mo-
ton to place the bill In general or
ders, which was adopted after a heat
&c argument, IS to Is. In addition to
being supported by several lndepend-
e1,t members, Halvorson had the
support OF all but two Nonpartisan
members. william Crockett OF Cava-
Her and B. w. Lemke Of Towner
county.
The chief argument Of Lynch and
ms supporters was that the building
OF the Big Bend bridge would dig
too deeply into the federal aid money
allotted the state. Lynch said the
Elbowoods bridge must logically be
built because federal aid would near
" foot its entire cost, due to the
bridge being located on IN Indian
reservation.
Needs Road Construction
The measures opponents held that
the bridge ct Garrison must come
second and to build It. too, would take
over = 4ly000,O00 from the states
federal aid appropriation. In addi-
ton, 1t was pointed out, about 28
miles OF highway would have to be
constructed to make the Garrison
structure accessible.
Halvorson refuted the figures Of

costs were much lower and Is . con-
sequence Lynchss figures were more
alarming than accurate. Halvorson
