.Advocates ol' Good Roads I'rge High- — way Commission. Indianapolis, Feb. s.—Discussion at a meeting of the good roads committee of the chamber of commerce yesterday revealed a practically unanimous sentiment in favor of a state highway commission of broad powers to supervise the building of roads in the state. Henry \V. Lawrence of the Claypool hotel described the road system of New York, showing that the adoption of permanent methods of construction had reduced the cost of highway maintenance iu thV state. Other speakers emphasized the lack of" co-opination in the road building of Indiana and declared that in Mariqn county the amount annually spent for .maintenance. would, iu twent years, { build a system of trunk roads equal j to the finest roads in the world. Luke \V. Duffey, chairman of the committee, and an active worker for better roads, said that selfish interests in large part had obscured the needs for a broad constructive highway policy in Indiana, Mr. Duffey is a candidate for a Republican nomination as state representative from Marion county, and is making his campaign on a good roads platform.
