'ROAD BUILT ON SALT OPENED IN DESERT Jardine Hails Achievement in Construction of 41-Mile Cut-0ff in Utah. By the Associated Press WENDOVER, Utah.,, June 13.— From the standpoint of engineering the 41.mile Wendover cut-off stretch of the Victory highway is unique in the history of road bullding, Secre- tary of Agriculture William M. Jar- dine declared in an address here to- day, He was the principal speaker at the celebration of the officlal opening of the new highway across the mud flats and salt beds of the Great Salt Lake Desert. The completion of the road opens the way for transcontinental and in- terstate travel between Utah through northern Nevada and northern and central California and brings to a successful conclusion a five-year effort to bridge the ago-old obstacle of the salt desert. Secretary Jardine summed up what in_his opinion would be the benefits of the new route and sald that ‘it is doubtful if the public at large ap- preciate the magnitude of the problem solved here.” “Now that the project has been brought to a successful conclusion it does not appear to have been espe- clally difficult,” he said. “This is a common characteristic of many great achlevements. To build a road on a bed of salt soluble in fresh water, which drains through this area, seemed hazardous in the extreme at the beginning. But the engineers dis covered early that the salt bed was insoluble in the residuent solution in which it lies after the Spring evapor- ation. ‘‘Consequently, a part of the road is built upon a solid layer of salt and the layer is permanently protected from disintegration by a clay cut of ‘wall. In the construction work horses could be employed only with the greatest difficulty; all fresh water had to be hauled for many miles and, for several miles, the roadbed was completely submerged in brine for months at a time." The cut-off cost $380,00 of which $284,000 was furnished by the Gov ernment, he declared. PILGRIMS VISIT POPE. Holy Year Party of 80 Received by Pontiff. ROME, June 13 (®.—Mgr.
