V The Chairman, Math N. Schmltt. of M<{Henry Township and Supr.

Asst. Supr.

Supr. Maokeben stated that he was not In any way crtlciaing the Road and Bridge Committee or the Highway Department' but that he did feel that something should be done concerning road matter, and that he would move at this time that the Road and Bridge Committee make a complete study of1 all road matters, as to V>w many miles of road that are now on the program to b« Improved, and how many miles of road now under construction, and how many miles of road needing repair. Said motion was duly secoded by Supr. Dunning. Several Suprs. spoke concerning road problems in their townships. Supr. NolaSl.
