the Highway Commission hopes to
be able to let contracts for this

A cut of learly 200 feet over
Robert s Mountain is planed, ra

sidered. The highway department
doesn t like tunne.s. said towards
because they ire too costly to con
struct for four lanes, and if built
with two lanes, widening in the
future is almost an impossibility.
Principal obstacles to highway
construction are, ne stated, first,
cost; second, engineering cost and
juslifiation of the expenditure for
a particular mule: surveys, en
gineering, rights-of-way, and after
a highway ;'s completed, there is
often the problem of slides.
Slides are considered calculated
risks, but nevv studies of soils
and geologic formation are aiding
in this problem.

What could be fairer?
It is our firm belief that much of the credit for the
final sucess of the New City Drive In Market build

derstanding of those involved in the project.
The willingness to accept new ideas must be first
acknowledged of the owners, Charles Tidwell, Harold
Davidson and Henry Crowdis. Their eagerness "to go
along" with many of the ideas we had wished to
use, was the first step in achieving the final results.
To Todd Building Company and the many sub-contractors
and suppliers, who worked so diligently to
translate our drawings into the final building, must
go an equal measure of our appreciation.
