Marriage to Aliens Who Arc Not Nat uralized Is Bar to Citizenship. Sacramento. According to an opin ion handed down by Attorney-General Webb to Secretary of State Jordan, a native-born woman who marries a foreigner or alien loses her right to citizenship and the ballot. This de cision will probably create a great deal of consternation among those women born in the state of California or other states of tho union whose husbands have not become natural ized and who desire the right of suf frage.

C-OIXCIL. REC- WILL REPORT NEXT MONDAY L. C. ROGERS SAYS IT IS SUPE RIOR TO ASPHALT. ENGINEER THINKS BEST PAVEMENT IS CHEAPEST (Morning Astorlan, Feo. 2, 1912.) In a report to be submitted to the city counclXat its meeting next Mon day afternoon, the members of the committee on streets and public highways, including Councilmen Bel- land, Knobloch and Curtis and City Surveyor L. C. Rogers, will unani mously recommend that the bltullthic type of pavement be used In the ex tensive campaign of street paving to be carried out on about 26 streets of Astoria this year. The members of this committee, have all arrived at the conclusion that liitulithic Is superior to all other kinds of paving, and is better suited to the needs and conditions of this city than is asphalt. The committee decided strongly in favor of bitulithlc, following a trip of investigation of various types of paving used on the streets of port- land, and after ascertaining the ex perience of numerous other cities with bitulithlc, Hassam, asphalt, wood block, stone, concrete, macad am, Westerlite and other kinds of paving. In discussing the subject yesterday for the information of citizens and taxpayers, Mr. Rogers gave his opin ion as an engineer, in which he un qualifiedly stated that 'bitulithlc is the superior pavement. He said in part: "Asphalt is not suited to the condi tions In Astoria. It is very slick, and when the weather is wet and cold, horses can't get a purchase because asphalt can't make a rough surface, which is required on hills such as we have here. Bitulithlc, however, roughens, and in Portland it has been i success on the hills, it has given satisfaction on two streets In that city that have 21 per cent grades. "Bitulithlc is much getter in ear ing than asphalt. A piece of bitu lithlc which I took, myself, from Fifth street, In Portland, where it has been laid for eight years, shows little wear, although this street car ries about as heavy traffic through out the year as any street in that city. "Bitulithlc is a patent asphalt prep aration, and it has other patent stuffs in it. When the pavement Is laid, it Is mixed hot with rock, varying in size from 3-4 of an inch to the finest particles. The whole theory of bitu lithic rests on tho fact that it is the stone that makes the wear. In se lecting the kind of rock, the city may choose either hard basalt or granite. But Astoria has the advantage of a whole quarry of fine basalt, "When the pavement is in use, the rock wears with the bitulithlc, and doesn't break out as in the case of concrete. Bitulithlc is pliable and adhesive, and adapts itself easily to changes, so that If a street sags on account of a break in the sewer, the bitulithlc conforms with the lowered grade without breaking. When a street is patched the bitulithlc as slmi'ates immediately and goes into the old pavement and makes a solid body just as good as when it was new. "In the construction of bitulithic pavement, n 4 -inch layer of 2 1-2 inch crushed rock is first placed on the street. This Is rolled with a 12-ton roller. On top of it is put a layer of hot bitutnum as a basis of the pave ment. Then a squeegee of sand or stono chips is spread over it. On this is placed the wearing surface of the pavement itself, consisting of crushed rock varying In size from 3-4 or an Inch to dust, which is mixed with hot bitumum in a mixer and then spread on the street at a temperature of about 270 degrees. After this Is thoroughly rolled, it gives a finished pavement. In my judgment, bitulithlc would ; last forever on the residence streets of Astoria. That this process of pavement is far superior to ordinary asphalt has been proved in the larger cities time and again. Bitulithic is a permanent pavement. It does not go to pieces, and hardly ever has to bo repaired. But if it does become necessary to repair it, tho city will only have to go over it with a top dressing, which sticks to the lower coat. The macadam streets on the hills of Astoria are In bad shape and will soon go to pieces entirely, unless they are thus covered with bitulithlc, which would not only make fine streets of them, but would eliminate the necessity for constant mainten ance. "In this connection, It Is pertinent to observe that the city last year spent $1600'puttlng In rock repairs on our old streets. In my opinion, this money was wasted and might Just as well have heen thrown away. Bitu lithlc will save the enormous yearly cost of up-keep. "In my opinion, bitulithlc la so far superior to bricks, wood blocks, stone, asphalt, Hassam, Westerlite, concrete and other kinds of pavement that there isn't any room for comparison. "One thing In favor of bitulithlc is that the crushed rock base gives good in Womtin's Ills Many women suffer needlessly from girlhood to woman hood and from motherhood to old oie with backache, dizziness or headiche.

SJ 03BUBJP PUB 'in8Uj:pun D3BUBJp an important factor here, because the ground is full of water. "Another point in favor of bitu lithic is that it is not affected by water or acids. "The difference In construction be tween asphalt and bitulithic is that in the case of asphalt there is laid a 6 inch concrete base, and on that is placed a 2-inch wearing surface of asphalt and sand which is mixed hot, spread on the street hot, and rolled. Asphalt pavement Is afected by acids and ammonia, and it rots rapidly wherever horses are used very much. Asphalt pavement requires a stone or asphalt gutter, which is not re quired by bitulithic pavement. So bi tulithlc eliminates the cost of mak ing a gutter, and the contractor is therefore able to make one Job of It. "Another superior point in bitu lithlc Is that It doesn't break down along the streetcar tracks and around manholes and over depressions which asphalt always does to a greater or less extent. "The average man considers only the original cost of construction of a pavement. This is a serious error. The most important consideration should be the cost of maintenance through a long period of years. . A cheap street that goes to pieces in a short time, and that has to be constantly repaired, is worse than worthless. A street that costs more at the start but which lasts for many years and doesn' have to be repaired right along, is the cheapest street, and it is the best street to put in.

Just as an instance of the penny wise and pound-foolish policy: The statistics prove that every owner of a 60-foot lot on Commercial street between Tenth and Twenty-third street, has had to pay a total of $1040 in the last 13 years ror repairs. "Astoria won't be trying a mere experiment in using bitulithic. It has been tried out and pronounced a suc cess In cities and towns all over the United States. Following are some of the towns in the northwest that are using bitulithlc pavement: Port land, Ore., Walla Walla, Wash., Col fax, Wash., Missouia, Mont., and nu merous Oregon towns including Pen dleton, Eugene, Salem, Medford, Grants Pass, The Dalles, La Grande, Albany, Ashland, Roseburg, Baker City, and others. "As an example of the way in -which these places have accepted bitulithic. it is sufficient to say that In Medford, bitulithic was opposed at first, but the company finally got some laid there, and when the initial contract was finished and the company was going to remove its plant, the city closed more contracts to put In twice as much bitulithic the next year."
