ATE ROAD TROUBLE
nt nji d fro:?: Page One)
*•' w ' -5 bn vs bv c.n* ract -
o: 'J to final inspection.”
Tvy county contends according to
Judge Dancy that this agreement
h s not been complied with and he
stated that he is still without infor-
a* to the Contractor's reason
fol-* discontinuing work on the
BripvQsviUe end ef tee road.
/Toe letter of Yates & West in lie-
half of the contractor inviting she
county to join the contractor in ask-
ing Mr. Windrow to arbitrate the
flatter and dated last Sunday says: 1
‘‘There appears to be a divergence
of pnimop as to the respective dutie*
of th** contractor and the county with
regard to mv contracts with Cameron
countyon Highway No. 12. and also
there exists a condition which from
u»S point of view is unfair to me in
that 1. or mv representatives are
f ^rquent’y unable to secure definite
inductions as to the carrying out of
certain parts of the contracts or are
given ambiguous instructions or in-
structions; not in accordance with the
plans and specifications.
“On August 13th Mr. I.. P». Can.th-
trs representing ine and who ha'
been on the Cam ron county job for
the past six or seven weeks had a
conference in Austin with Mr. Rol-
lin'J. Windrow state highway en-
gineer. relative Jo mv contract with
your county and the differences
that have arisen. It was there s« r- i
£ ?!ed tliat Mr. Windrow be called
".non to arbitrate those differences.
Mr. Windrow stated that he would
* o so if he were called upon by i
both parties. Thereupon Mr. Caro-
thers as my representative invited
1 im to act i:; dat capacity and j
agreed for no to be bound by his
decisions.
"This letter is to ccnfirni to you
Mr. Carothers’ action at Austin last
Saturday and whenever you see fit
to invite Mr. Windrow to arbitrate
■ e Jtfih.rentes thatexist or ques- !
ins thet arise 1 -hall be glad to
icede i<» i i: decisions."
Judge npney replied to this letter
:.s f dlov. s: •
‘*1 am jj-l in receipt to let-
ter as follows:
“1 am ju.'t in receipt of veur eo:n-
;u meat ion of yesterday-in reg rd
to the work on State Highway No.
12. I enclose you copy yf letter that
• had already dictated to Mr. It. J.
\v i ml row which < xpiains our position
•n the matter. Until your client
*akos us into his ccnfi lence as to j
his alleged ; rievtniees I do not see a-
acre is anything to arbitrate. V/e
re certainly willing that Mr. Win-
row arbitrate any differences that
lay exist but before joining in the
quest for such arbitration feel that
we should have from your client th«
following: t
“Fii t: A bill of particulars a« to
e alleged grievances which V -
Montgomery claims ro that we may
e nr*-pared to take same uj» on tl
arrival of Mr. Windrow.
“Second: Assurances that yon” *
« i . | . !
ipiv with the*
arbitration of Mr-—Windrow hoi
vour information will say that some
montns ago Mr. Montgomery pro-
posed to Mr. Washington that some
differences on the Brownsville end
’ e submitted to the highway depart- j
ment and that both parties abide by
: aid decision of said department. Mr. i
Washington assented and in com-
pliance the representatives of the
-tale and federal departments came
and outlined what was to be done ;
by the contractoi and what was to
l»e don • by t.he county and on Mr. |
Muntgonie* moving back on the job
an** r ...ently starting to carry out
f directions ami the assurance of
ds representatives made as believed
by such representatives we in the
most absolutely good faith that ccr-
> nin objections that had b(fen outlin-
d by Mr Washington were being
taken care of and would be taken
cart of. allowed an estimate; yet in
twt nty-two hours after payment of
aid estimate the work closed down
and we have not to this good hour
been advised of the excuse for this
action.
"While we do not desire to bother
1r. Windto. with our county trou*
I les we will be delighted to have him
come down and arbitrate any dif-
ferences that you think may exist
but in the meantime arbitration or
<o arbitration we must insist and
do insist and demand that work on
both project agreements proceed im-
itiiiately ami continue with due di-
lgence.”

MRS. XINSBACH SAYS
SHE’S ENJOYING LIFE
FIRST TIME IN YEARS
‘Tip not surprised that people
praise Tanlac for it does exactly what
hey say it will do” said Mrs. Emma
Kingbach 3411 Lyons Ave. Houston
I'cxas.
‘‘Worus tan hardly describe how
miserable 1 was for four years as 1
just suffered all the time from stom
ach trouble. 1 lived on the very light-
est food but still nothing agreed with
-no and I was ‘'uncomfortable for
hours after every meal. I hud rheum-
itisin in my shoulders and neck con-
/antly and was so nervous 1 got lit-
tle sleep at night and was worried
and restless all day long. Both my
husband and myself were very much
alarmed ovtr my condition which
‘teemed to get worse instead of bet-
ter no matter how much 1 tried to
get relief.
”1 will never forget the night my
’ nsband brought home a bottle of
Tanlac for that was the beginning of
he * ml of my troubles. It bell* fitted
.r.<* in every way. I now eat meats
vegetables and anything else i want
without the slightest suffering after
wards. 1 have a splendid appetite!
and everything tastes so good and I
feel so fine all the time that I’m en-
tying life a.* 1 haven't in many a
y *’•
“I can tell from the way my clothes |
.'it that I’m gaining in weight right
•:i* ng. and 1 feel so stfong and full
f life and energy that my housework
; just like play to me now. It’s be-
rond words for tne to express my
thanks for the relief Tanlac brought .
ie. 1 just know it’s the best medi
;ne ever made and I hope every-
body in Houston who suffers as I did
will take it too.
