State Highway
Re-0pens Deiour
On Route 563
Collapsed Bridge
At Newburg Causes
Change In Route

During the past week, work at
the state highway garage has
been confined to flood duty ac-
cor3ing to officials. Several
roads were inundated when 3.55
inches of rain fell. During the
past week crews from the local
garage were on duty day and
night in these areas.
This week, workmen at the
West street garaoe are busy un-
loading 490 tons of gravel. The
material will be used this winter
to patch various highways in the
county as the need arises.
The highway department has
established detour around the
old Dexter City-Newburg bridge
which collapsed some two weeks
ago. An old township road was
taken over and slagged by the
state. In cooperation with the
county highway department,
which took over all bridges on
the road, the detour was opened
last week. Traffic over State
Route 563 is now routed over the
road at the junction of u. S.
Route 81 near the. William Pat
ten home and joins 563 at the
Frank Barnhart home just north
of Newburg.
Maintenance crews are patch
ing holes on routes $40 and 76
this week where the settling of
the earth over the Big Inch"
pipelines has created holes.
Guard rails are also being re-
paired throughout the county
with rotting posts and planks
being replaced.
A carload of salt for use in ice
control is expected to arrive this
week. Several carloads of ashes
and salt were stocked in the
storage yard earlier this winter.
Only a slight amount of this
stock has been used due to the
open winter.

brightest future in all it's his
tory. Noble county has over
two billion tons of tested coal,
besides great reserves in sur
rounding counties. We have a
labor reserve of the highest type
to be found anywhere. A great
bed of rock salt underlies our
section of the Ohio Valley. Be-
cause many of us fought for
flood control we have IA dams
completed on tributaries of the
Muskingum river. When the Dill
Ion Dam on the Licking river
above GAINESVILLE is completed
we will control another Is per-
cent of the water in the Mus
kingum Valley. With floods con-
trolled and great reserve of
water for periods of drought the
Muskingum Valley can be de-
veloped. Already a power plant
much bigger than the one at
Philo has been planned for con-
struction between McConnels-
vile and Marietta. This will as
sure unlimited power.
"In my district, between Mar
ietta and Belpre, three subsidar-
les of the Union Carbide and
Carbon Corporation are con-
structing great plants estimated
to cost many millions of dollars.
Four great chemical plants are
already in operation just across
the Ohio river from my district.
When we made our successful
fight against tolls on the Belpre
bridge we began an effort that
resulted in all three bridges
across the Ohio river from my
! district being free today. Many
of my people are employed
across the river and new plants
, on the Ohio side could have
ready access to raw materials
from these plants.
"The chemical industry is the
basis of industry today, and
there is every reason to believe
that other industries using these
basis materials will gravitate to-
ward the 18th district.
with our industry and in
creased population come many
other problems. While in Con-
gresS l have never had another
job or interest. My full time is
given in service to my people
and my district. So it must be if
we are to grow and prosper and
take full advantage of the great
opportunities which are now
ours.
During the past session no
one can challenge the fact that
1 have opposed great expendi-
lures of American money
throughout the world. l have
worked hard and voted for econ
omy to the extent that if a ma
jority had voted like / we could
pay billions on the national debt
instead of operating at deficit.
II have faithfully served the
veterans and have tried to solve
their problems. / have always
opposed the Reciprocal Trade
Acts and fought in every way to
protect the glass and pottery
workers of my district from
cheap imports.
II have done what / thought
was right. l have put my own
country and my own district
first. l have tried to be a good,
sensible and true servant of all
the people. l always will.
"If we forget politics, if we
work hard and work together,
we can make the 18th district
the best balanced, industrially,
and the most prosperous, gener-
ally, of any in the United States.
That is my hope and goal. / have
complete faith that we will
achieve it."
