Thos. R. Dennard Has Unique
Experience on Coast

I on, was bombed by an unknown
1 mystery airplane. Two of the
bombs dropped at the fantail,
missing them about one hundred
feet, one discharged in the air,
and the other fell into the sea. A
piece of shrapnel from one of the
bombs which fell on the deck was
about one-half inch thick, quar
ter of an inch wide and two inches
long '
Mr. Dennard also had the oppor

COTTON ROADS ARE
BEING COMPLETED
!
410 Miles of Cotton Roads
Completed or Being 1
Constructed
More than 400 miles of cotton
re-enforced bituminous surfaced
roads will have been completed in
ten states before snow flies, ac-;
cording to reports reaching the
Cotton Textile Institute from state
highway departments. Completion
of the roads for which the cotton
fabric, used as a reinforcing mem
brane between the top surface and
base, was furnished gratis to the
states by the federal government,
will insure, the institute points out.
a broad scale demonstration of the
practicability of such roads under
varying extremes of winter weath
er and traffic.
Construction of another 50 miles
originally scheduled for completion
this fall in Arizona, Washington,
Maine, Florida and Georgia has
been postponed until next spring
because of late deliv°rv of the fab
ric, which was purchrsed by the
Department of Agriculture under
a $1,300,000 allocation to finance
a nation-wide demonstration of
the new construction method, now
counted on to open up a future
new market for hundreds of thou
sands of bales of cotton annually.
Each mile of cotton road utilizes
from eight to ten bales of cotton
in the form of reinforcing fabric.
First employed in South Caro
lina in 1926, and sponsored active
ly since by the institute, the cot
ton road technique involves no de
parture from standard bituminous
surfaced road construction meth
ods, and is widely regarded by
highway engineers as an almost
ideal type of construction for the
secondary road systems. The re
inforcing membrane, preventing
rippling and raveling of the top
surface and providing a water
proof seal between surface and
base, is credited by highway de
partments of states which built
experimental projects during the
past ten years, with substantial
economies in maintenance.
