McCnllouffli, After Inspection of Independence Span, Bays Work nias tratea Polly of So-Called "Economy Dallas. Or., Oct. 7. The report of C. B. McCullough, of the engineering de partment of O. A. C, who was engaged by the county court of Polk county to make an inspect ionlif the new concrete bridge at Independence, which col lapsed whlh the superstructure was removed, has been filed with the court. In the preamble of his report the engi neer says: "The Incident serves a valuable purpose In illustrating the folly and shortsightedness of any pol icy that economizes on engineering and inspectlonal services at the risk of failures such as this." Summarized, the report Is as fol lows: The design was In no" way re sponsible for the failure of the struc ture. Tt Is not probable that the ce ment shad anything to do with the failure. Some of the sand used was very fine. This undoubtedly caused the formation of weak spots' in the concrete, but probably would not alone have caused failure. Careless and In correct methods of construction were probably -chiefly responsible for tho failure. For this Careless construction the contractor is In large measure re sponsible, but the county 19 in a minor degree responMble (morally at least). In that careful Inspection was not In sisted upon.
