CEMENT PRICE WILL INCREASE COST OF BRIDGE

'."Since the Main and South G street bridge appropriations were turned down by the county council in -September, cement has advanced in price fifteen, cents on the barrel and 'prospects are that the costs will advance an equal amount within the next few . weeks. The price of cement in September was 11.54 a barrel and the price today (by car load lots) is $1,69 a barrel. , Other materials have advanced in proportion and labor prices are being boosted steadily. 1 The cost of cement for each of. the .bridges as estimated by Engineer 'Mueller for the council in September was $24,000. By the time the contract

is let, the cement will probably cost at least twenty percent more. 'It is likely that new estimates will .have to be made, even though the commissioners ask for appropriations for the same types of bridges. , No Decrease Expected. There has been some talk of delaying the erection of the bridges, especially the South G street bridge, untfl the prices go down. Deputy Surveyor Horton said today his ; investigations had revealed no price decrease for at least five yearsThere will likely be a great boost in prices of construction materials as soon as the spring building opens up, he said. "A careful study of trade journals

has revealed the fact that at least $100,000,000 worth of public work was put off from this year until next This cannot be put off any longer and when the demand for materials comes in for this work, the demand will greatly exceed the supply," said Horton. - PRESIDENT'S NAME IS NOT TRADE MARK
