Uni- Instead of paying $35,000 a mile for brick, the county adopts t versal Pavement—Concrete—at half the price Letters, telegrams, petitions and personal appeals from the taxpayers of the county convinced the County Board to unanimots cision, rgest Here are some of the prominent men who urged Concrete: L. J. Colman (property owner) Theodore Haller (property owner) Grosvenor Folsom i (Puget Mill Co.) Singleton McElroy (attorney) (Amos Brown Estate) James R. Stirrat (Stirrat & Goetz} oe James F. Telegrams were received from the White River Lumber Company and the Enumclaw Milk & Cream Company, the latter being as follows: “In the interest of economy, and considering the desirability of Con- crete paving as against brick, we favor Concrete, as the Concrete paving here, although subjected to the most severe use, is showing most excellent results,”’ The Kent, Auburn and Enumclaw commercial organizations all sent in strong appeals for Concrete. Many other phone calls and verbal rec- ommendations for Concrete were received from all parts of King County. TAXPAYERS—Ride around over the brick and concrete roads of King County and judge for yourselves the relative merits. Then you will know the commissioners have chosen the right road for the tax- payers. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION, BOOK- LETS, ETC.
