Brown Removed from the directorship of the state highway department for complete incompetency,” Senator Charles L. Strey (Rep.), Wabash, told The Times on a visit to Indianapolis Monday afternoon.

Williams, former director of the^state highway department. Williams was deposed by Governor Harry G. Leslie and replaced by Brown, Leslie’s hand-picked man.

He previously had announced he will demand a legislative investigation of expenditure of highway funds and introduce a bill to abolish the present commission. In its stead, Strey would have a full-time commission of at least three* commissioners. His battle against Brown and the present commissioners is said by them to have grown out of his failure to obtain a state paved road through Wabash over what is known as the Hills to Lakes highway. The matter first was made public by Brown giving a letter to the press in which he challenged the senator to bring proof of his (Strey’s) allegation that Jess L. Murden 'Rep.), Peru, member of the highway commission, was interested in firms selling automotive supplies to the highway department. “Brown Ijas brought this matter into the press and I’m ready to keep it before the public,” Strey asserted. "I’m here to gather this proof which Brown requested.” Almost daily the quarrel brings anew round of letters or telegrams back and forth between the participants.
