GOODRICH WILL PICK BEST MEN FOR PLACES ON HIGHWAY COMMISSION

James P. Goodrich, who as governor, will appoint the four commissioners to the Indiana Highway Commission, a bill for which will be one of the; big things in the legislature, will name the very best men in the state for that job. He has already declared for that—declared that he has at least three of them selected, though incognito. That pronouncement will at least keep off his trail ambitious patriots who Would like to sprve on that com-, mission. In explaining his position, why these commissioners should serve without pay instead of the nominal salary of $lO per diem while doing actual work, he said that .for that place he could get men worth $25,000 or $50,000 a year, who would serve on such a commission out of their regard for the self-sustaining rewards of public service. These men, he said, would not be attracted by any small salary, such as the state could afford for such work. Mr. Goodrich is much interested in the proposed highway department and the federal aid which will help Indiana construct a system of main market roads which will be of incalculable good for the State in every way possible. But the roads should be built right, says Mr. Goodrich, with correct inspection, and built to last. As his idea of roads he points to those in Wayne county, Mich., running out of Detroit, whch have been down five years and ’have cTown, according to the statements of engineers, one-eighth of an inch. At this rate it would years to wear dowh'that sort of"roa,d 'one inch, according to the new goviernor, makes a mighty satisfactory I road,. .. —"" ~ , ; It may not be generally known that

Governor Goodrich.

Goodrich was formerly ,jn the road b.uilding business and knows something of the tricks, of the trade; He points with much pride to a brick street built by him at Winchester, his home town, on which he gave a tenyear bond, soon to expire. The street stands in good condition; in fact, in the best condition.
