MOOSE PASS ROAD
BE COMPLETED
IN THREE WEEKS
CHIEF ENGINEER REHER RE
TURNS FROM INSPECTION
OF B. P. R. PROJECT.
ONE HUNDRED MEN EMPLOYED
Bridge and Trestle Work Starts In
Two Weeks—Steel At Hand.
The road construction camp which
has been located at Mile 22, Moose
Pass, has been moved to Pass Creek,
Mile 25, according to J. B. Reher, as
sociated highway engineer, who re
turned to his local office last week
following an inspection ot the proj
ect. Clearing and grading is being
accomplished at this time at Pass
Creek, and will, in about three weeks,
connect up with the Frenchy creek
crew. Another crew is working from
Frenchy creek to the Anderson sum
mer camp, and will be completed in
about two weeks. A crew is now at
work from this location down to
Canyon creek, Mile 29.
According to present indications,
with the full crews, or about 100
men engaged on the various work,
the only possible thing which will hin
der the completion of Unit No. 3,
Moose Pass, would be a heavy fall
of snow and this is not probable at
this time.
Surfacing was started at Mile 20
the first of the month, all the holes
being filled up. Three or four auto
trucks are on this work.
Bridge work will begin in about
two weeks, Engineer Reher stated,
all steel now being on the various
«ites. A 74-foot truss bridge will be
constructed at Mile 26; a 110-foot
trestle, 30 feet in height will be put
in at Pass creek, and at Donaldson
creek, a 40-foot trestle, 140 feet in
height, will be erected.
A new kind of amalgam metal for
bank vaults has been produced, which
is said to resist cutting by oxy-acety
lene torches.

Nickel Cigar Again
May Be With Us
WASHINGTON, Nov. 12. (£>)—A
good five-cent cigar, which the late
Vice President Marshall said was
what the country really needed most,
could be produced if taxes were reduc
ed to the pre-war level, the house
ways and means committee was told
by a committee of cigar manufac
turers and tobacco growers.
Protest was registered by the to
bacco interests against “a continu
ation of war-time taxes upon cigars,
while practically every other tax rate
which was increased during the war
has been reduced.”
