The Touring club of America has received the following communication from James H. Macdonald. Connecti- cuts highway commissioner: "I am glad to advise automoblists | through the Touring club of America. that l have arranged for a complete
 supervision of the road from New Ha- ven to the New York state line, and at the present time have gangs of
 men all along the line under the direc- tion of men who have received their instructions from the department. No | trouble or expense will be spared in
 putting this road in a first class state
 of repair in so far as the state road is concerned.
 T have ben in conference with the selectmen relative to the stretch of road in Darien, with the result that
 the town and state will cooperate in
 redeeming that road from the condi- tion 1t has been in during the past
 several months. Before the state can enter upon the road, the town has to
 put the highway in passoble condition
 and then install about 1500 feet of drainage sewer to take care of the
 watershed at that point. After that
 has been done the state will enter up
 on the road and see that it is put in first class condition"
 It 1 iE understood that the New York highway authorities will do their part to repair the Boston post road to the Connecticut state line, so that dur ing the summer this popular road i should stand the heavy traffic which 1t constantly receives.
