The Montana Highway Commits
sion wound up its June meeting

for eight construction jobs, costing
more than S1,1O0,000, would be

Chairman A. F. Winkler warned

more money for the job. He said
Montana was some 81 100000 over
Drawn on its federal highway aid
program at present.
Winkler, who recently was in
Washington representing the west
ern association of state highway Of
ficials, said westerners were in a
minority in their contention that
federal highway expenditures must
continue high.

FACTS ABOUT
CONCRETE MASONRY

Concrete masonry is widely used
in building construction because OF
its many definite advantages. It is
economical, light in weight, durable,
fire-resistive, and able to carry
heavy loads. II is regularly used for
both load bearing and non-load-
bearing walls, for partitions, as
backing for all types of facing ma
ferials, for fireproofing as floor fill
ers, and for almost every building
construction use where masonry can
be used advantageouSly.
The advantages of concrete ma
eonry are not confined to its use as
a structural material. It has other
desirable properties which have
contributed to its rapidly increasing
use. It is readily adaptable TO any
style of architecture. It lends itself
to a wide variety of surface fin
ishes for both exterior and interior
walls. Concrete masonry made with
lightweight aggregates has excel
der modern production methods cas-
which make il particularly suitable
for building exposed walls IN all
types of auditoriums, for gymna-
Sums, for class rooms, for corri-
doris, and, in fact, for all buildings
where noise abatement or good
acoustical properties are sought.
Because of its many inherent adj
vantages, it is not surprising that
concrete masonry is enjoying such
a wide and increasing use in all
types of buildings, schools, churches,
auditoriums, theaters, factory build
ings, apartments, residences, stores,
garages, warehouses, farm buildings
of all types, and the full range of
building construction from a one
room milk house to a multi-story
sRyscraper.
what 1t Is-Its characteristics
The term concrete masonry" is
applied TO block, brick and tile
building units nodded from concrete
and laid by masons in a wall. The
concrete is made by mixing portland
cement with water and such mater
ials as sand, pebbles, crushed stone,
cinders, Stag, burned shale or clay
or other suitable aggregates.
Quality
Concrete masonry units made I'M
der modern production methods cas-
lily meet building code requirements
as well as the specifications of the
American Society for Testing Ma
terials, Underwriters Laboratories
and the Master Specifications Of
the United States Government.
