SCENE OF ACTIVITY is this rock quarry of the Rush Construction Co., on the De Bernardi
property between Glide and Idleyld Park. The crushed rock is used os a base for the new
highway being constructed from Lone Rockbridge to Rock Creek. (Paul Jenkins Picture)
Rush Construction Company Operates
Quarry For Highway Base Materials
By MRS. ARTHUR M. SELBY
The'Rush Construction Company,
which started operations of a rock
quarry on the DeBernardi prop
erty near Idleyld the fore-part of
April, is individually owned by
Richard Rush, whose main office
is at Seattle, Wash. Rush motors
every weekend to his home in Seat,
tie to visit bis wife and children
(two sons and two daughters).
Rush brought here from Seattle
about $200,000 of his $250,000 worth
of equipment. This consists of two
air compressors (250 ft. and 500 ft),
three wagon drills, 1 yard pow
er shovel, four rock crushers, 16
dump trucks, three moving trucks
and a pickup truck for messenger
service. Rush has been in the rock
crushing business for 17 years.
The first operation on solid rock
formation, he said, is the drilling of
hiles by the air compressors in
which to place the dynamite. Up to
two tons of dynamite for one blast
is used. Then the broken rock is
loaded into the dump trucks by
the power chovel. The trucks-drive
up a long ramp, dumping the rock
into a feeder which drops the rock
into the first crusher.
From there, the rock travels by
conveyor to another crusher. Four
crushers are used according to the
size rock needed for construction
of the highway. Three grades are
usod before completion of the road.
After the rock goes through the
crushers, and on into the bunkers,
the trucks deliver it to the job.
After a dynamite blast, there
are many, many boulders which do
not shatter and which are too large
to be handled by the trucks or
crushers. These must be shattered
by an operation termed "bull-dozing."
The boulders are plastered
with dynamite powder and then
shot. The company's 26 man-crew
produces 80 cubic yards of crush
ed rock per shift.
Fund Voted By House
For Bases Overseas
WASHINGTON W The House
passed Thursday without change a
bill authorizing $2,758,318,000 to
build Army, Navy and Air Bases

New Chemical Compounds
May Become Power Source
Of Automobiles In Future
By DAVID J. WILKIB
AP Automotive Editor
ATLANTIC CIT.Y N. J. ( New chemical compounds
with tremendous expansion rates are being considered as the
power source of automobiles of the future. '
If the hopes of engineers working with these compounds
are realized, miles per gallon of fuel no longer will be one of
the motorist's worries. He will get virtually unlimited mile
age.
Objective of the research which
has been going on for more than
five years was explained Informal
ly Wednesday by one of the engi
neers attending the summer meet
ings hjre of the Society of Auto
motive engineers.
Asking that he remain unidenti
fied, he explained that tests now
are being made with what is
known as a "closed circuit" en
gine. That is a power plant in which
there is no exhaust and in which
the acceleration characteristics of
steam power is gained.
Power Action Explained
But the power is not steam. It
is a liquid compound which is
boiled into vapor, released into the
engine's cylinder head, then passed
tnrough a radiator to be restored
to its liquid form and returned
to the supply tank.
Because it is scaled in the sys
tem, there is no loss of the chem
ical compound. However, there is
a small consumption of some form
of fuel gasoline or electricity
used to operate the h?ating unit
that converts the liquid initially in-
10 vapor.
The engineer who outlined the
project emphasized that the pro
posed method of obtaining nnwer
doesn't contemplate "perpetual mo
tion" and long has been under
study in Europe as well as the
United States for use in self-propelled
vehicles.
He said the engine under test
had an internal heat about one
third that of a conventional auto
engine and that it could be ade
quately air-cooled. .

to have been saved from extinction I
when a flock of 76 was found
Montana after the bird was

was established for them in 1935

farmers ' million dollars be
cause of a reduction in yield and
down-grading of wheat at the mar
ket. .
"This is a great loss," he de
clared, "not only in money but in
food greatly needed in the world
today."
Stockman said the two most pro
ductive types of wheat in the
northwest Elgin and Alicel test
ed over 60 pir cent smutty last
year. Hp daid past experience in
dicates that new types of smut are
breeding faster than methods to
combat them can be found. One
new type now found in the North

has proven capable of with
standing chemical treatment.
