Two States Pushing Paying Projects Across the Nation
Public works reports in a New York publication note California state highway engineer A B Fletcher says 2600 men were employed on highway contracts by July. A $4.78 million highway bond sale will let more bids, with California already letting contracts totaling 7 016 875. Illinois plans 150 miles of paving, while Iowa contemplates a spring program but fears farmers cannot fund it. Drainage and grading advance as groundwork for hard surfacing, with recent Iowa bids as low as 22 cents per cubic yard for grading, a fraction of prior costs.
