Tunisian and U.S. Engineers Replace Vital Rail Bridge Working together, engineers of Tunisia and the United States Army quickly erected a temporary railroad bridge at Khledia. A flood destroyed the old one. The speedy reconstruction enabled the Tunisian railroad to resume hauling iron ore - an important export - to La Goulette. Loss of the rail line would have been a damaging blow to the country's economy. The new span will serve until a permanent bridge is built. 65-109 (16) ``` Small captions were read at reduced resolution; some personal-name spellings may differ slightly from the printed sheet.
