REPAIR EXPENSES ARE LESS, WHILE WORKJSEREATER Street Maintenance Economies Shown in Engineer Elliott's Latest Report. The city asphalt repair department has made approximately one-third more street patches so far this year than in all of 1921 at approximately one-half the cost for labor, City Civil Engineer John L. Elliott announced today. Last year about 500 tons of asphalt were used in street repairs." So far this year approximately 700 tons have been used, not to mention old asphalt which has been worked over for small patches in cold weather, I an innovation this year. Elliott said the department has i spent on materials to date 148,000. Last year $55,430 was the cost. For salaries and wages this year j $32,000 has been spent, as compared i with $63,462.32 last year. The total | labor cost this year will approximate $35,000, Elliott estimated. The wage t rate was the same both years. For salaries and wages at the city asphalt plant the cost this year has been $11,355 and probably will be $13,000 for the year. Last year it was $14,188. Until this year asphalt repair has been in charge of the street commissioner. The Shank administration had it changed to the engineering department so trained engineers could supervise. Elliott said he planned to keep one gang of asphalt repairmen working until Dec. 1, and probably one brick and block street gang until Jan. 1.
