BAIN KEEPS NEW
CITY PAVER IDLE
AS TIME SPEEDS
TJ i new Smith street paver, for
- which tne city of Salem paid 16999
' about two months ago Is all right
If the weather la perfectly fair.
But after a light rain or a night of
hea y fog the machine la aa uaeleee
for paving street aa kid's expresu
wagon.
The machine is supposed to have
paving capacity of something
like 1200 square yards, a block or
thereabouts, every day. But during I
the entire first half of June, be
cause of rain and fog, the mach
ine hasn't turned a wheel.
Explanation la made that the pav
r Itself Is all right. It would work
right along If sand and gravel
coul dbe gotten to It. But If the
dirt surface of an unpuved street
Is a little wet ti e heavy motor
trucks of the sand and gravel com
pany with which the city has con
tracted for material are unable to
reach the paving machine. Under
the old system of paving streets,
used u pto this year, the method
was for the trucks to haul the ma
terial to the street and atrew It
along the edges of the street when
ven convenient. It might be sev
eral days before the paving actual
. ly Is started. . But under the new
system It Is necessary for the ;
trucks, each hauling three cubic I
yards, to drive to the paver and
dump the sand an dgravel direct
ly Into the machine as It operates.
And If the trucks can't net to the
paver, the paver can't operate.
Discussion of the paver came up
at the city council meeting last
night i connection with a bid on
a street grader and skimmer that
the city may purchase. Concern
ing the paver, now idle. Alderman
Rosebraugh expressed the opinion
tha twlth the coming of good
weather It would soon catch up
with Its work.
The council rejected the bid of
16700 for the grader, but eovoral
other bids on gasoline machines
are still under consideration.
