MACON PEOPLE SEEK WORK ON BRIDGE FILLS FRANKLIN--Petitions are being circulated the Clark's Chapel, Tesenta and Riverside section of Macon county, the area lying east of the Little Tennessee river and south of Franklin, asking for improvements of the approaches to the Phillips' and Smith Bride bridges across the river. It is pointed out that the approaches to these two bridges, especially on the west side, are so low that every time the river overflows, the highway is covered. However, it is understood that the bridges themselves are high enough to clear the flood waters. Whenever the river the gets out east of banks, it is said that people of the river find it difficult, if not impossible, to come to Franklin, or to get a physician into their community, if in need of one. The Otto school was closed recently for two days because the flooded highways made it impossible for the school children to get over this stretch of the road.

The petitions which will be sent to the state highway and public works commission, are asking that the highways at these points be raised enough to keep the flood waters from overflowing them.

It is neither smokeless nor a powder, declares Dan Rivkin of Southwestern Institute of Technology at Weatherford, Okla. Smokeless gun powder is actually a glue-like form of cellulose nitrate and is usually molded into cylindral shapes, he explained. Used as a propellent; the "powder" must be processed so it will not shoot projectiles too slow or too fast, but at the exact speed required. den, Mrs. J.
