But thoae who had studied the equation were not discouraged by the knocks they received; they were: called dreamers and all of that, but they continued their efforts, and after one or two surveys by private engineers who es timated the cost at less than a half million dollars, the city and county became interested, and through their efforts the state highway department agred to make tlie preliminary sur veys, and two of them, completed in every detail, approximately the coat at $300,000.
