Tunnels 6 and 7, formerly Li beled A and B. have been sunk 200 feet, but it is expected their length will have to be trebled or quadrupled before much r u n off can be looked for. Tunnel 2 is still the star per former of the group, having a steady flow of between three and four cubic feet per second. Work on W ater Level Highway Slated for 1937 W o r k on the new' w-’»er- grade upper Columbia River highway between T routdaie and Dodson apparently cannnot be started -until the summer of 1037 at the earliest, the state highway commission deter mined W e d n e s d a y . Before that time, and possibly not then, the United States army engineers do not expect to have funds with w'hich to dredge the ship channel in the Columbia and supply part of the material for the fill on w'hich the rerouted road will be built. Colonel T . M. Robins, divi sion engineer of the army en gineers, told the hiqhwav com- ission at a conference that cb<51l|(3 p — rt *■ o c; C prjprn»’«» Tunnel at Tooth Rock Is Started Rock began to fly in earnest yesterday as Orinc-Birkemeier- Saremal crews went to work on the T ooth Rock highway tunnel project, which has been delayed some time because shovels, trucks and other equipment was diverted to the railroad fill proj ect just west of the T a n n e r creek bridge on the old Union Pacific track. T h is equipment is now available and it is expected work will be stepped up to full speed on the tunnel, say C. B. Speaker and D. H. Cadmus, resident engineers respectively for the O regon state highway department and the United States bureau of public roads. Preliminary blasting was done W e d n e s d a y to outline the portal and set the stage for commencement of underground operations T hursday. Rock from the tunnel w'ill be removed to a stock pile n o rth east of the highway near the county line, where there is a long fill with plenty of room for dumping Much of this rock w'ill be used later in laying the new roadbed from Eagle creek west to a point near the Bonne ville school. C adm us said the blasting in the tunnel will be light, just sufficient ¿o strip aw ay the rock as fast as it is carried out. F o r this reason work on the east portal can be started when the tunnel has been run about 150 feet into T o o th rock. C rew s will wait until the en tire roadbed is complete, includ ing the tunnel unit, before p u t ting on blacktop, as it w'ill be cheaper to do the w'hole job at pnee. »he project w’hen it reconvenes in the fall it probably won d take several months to actually get the money.
