At another point, some 50 feet above the water level, jackhammer men are working in a man made groove about 200 feet long, chipping their way along the face of the eliff, cutting out a right of way for the railroad trains which will carry debris from the dam site. Work Day And Night At this outpost of the project the crew works day and night. At still another section, road crews are fighting their way along the rock walls, digging out a highway to connect Boulder City and the dam site. Between the floor of the niche and ceiling a heavy bar is clamped in a vertical position. On this there are two arm shaped bars, sturdily built, which support the heavy jackhammers. When the holes are completed, powder is placed and the explosion which follows rips out huge sections of rock. All equipment must be car- ried out prior to the blast and then moved back afterward. In few instances in railroad con- struction have there been so many perils and difficulties to be over- " before the state legislature recently, Mayor Cermak said: “4Prompt action must be taken.
