Danger from land-slips along
the Ruckel slide free has al­
ready been lessened by four
tunnels run back to divert water
impounded behind impervious
strata, according to employees
of the United States engineers’
highway and railroad depa rt­
ment. in charge of tunneling op­
erations along the slide.
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

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.
