Operation of Rock Crushers
During Winter Months to
Help Situation 300 Idle
in City.
The county court took steps yes
terday at a special session to de i
crease in whatever measure it
court, the unemployment situation j
In Jackson county by considering 1
plans for operation of county rock I
crushers during- the winter months1
to provide work for 25 or more j
men. I
Operation of the rock crushers j
will enable the county to lay in a !
large supply for the heavy gravel-
ling and oiling program next year, j
It ts planned to operate two of the ;
crushers, while the third is in the j
machine shops undergoing repairs. I
Details of the plan will be decided
at the regular session of the county j
court tomorrow.
It is necessary for the gravel
used in oiling operations to bo
washed, and it must thus bo pre
pared for the oiling of the Apple
gate road from Ruch to Provolt.
To Store Gravel
It is tentatively planned to oper
ate the rock crushers In various
parts of the county where road
work Is planned for 1931 and store
the gravel there. No hauling will
be done this winter, as it would
rut the roads.
County Judge Alex Sparrow said
this morning that men employed
under the winter policy would
have to be bona fide residents of
Jackson county and that it wan
hoped to secure some co-operation
from the state highway commis
sion in providing winter work.
The continuation of work thru
the winter also prevents the laying
off of a dozen men now employed.
According to Chris Gottlieb, in a
recent federal report, there are
.about 300 unemployed men In the
city. , .
