ROAD INVESTIGATION

Money Expended For I'M

Agitation.
International News Service

International News Service:
MARION. Ind, May 24.-With all
the good roads agitation that is
sweeping the state, many counties,
with Grant county taking the lead
have begun 10 inquire If the tax
payers are getting their moneys
worth in road building. An investi-
eation is now being conducted here
by field examiners sent by the state
board of accounts and the grand jury
"a lay the facts before the public
The fight for the investigation was
led by the Marion Chronicle and the
Commercial club.
More than $4,000 was spent in
1915 for repair Of roads in Grant
county When ii became known this
sum had ben used in maintenance
only. many of the roads having been
constructed in the last two years.
questions began TO be asked.
Where has the m oney gone"
The result is the investigation
now under way.
Charles Nelson, president of the
board of county commissioners. is
i'm the center of the present agita-
ton. Nelson has been county COM
missioner since Jan. /, 1915. In that
period he has appointed "A brother
in-law road superintendent and a
son road supervisor.
Large quantities of crushed stone
we're bought by road officials for use
on the roads at the rate of 81 ten.
Townships. it is said. have purchased
the same kind of stone for so cents
"a ton for years. In building tarvia
roads a binder is used. The county
has paid 10 cents gallon, while
private parties have said they get
il for eight cents a gallon.
Not Built BY Experts.
Roads in Grant county, il appears.
have not always been built by ex-
ports. For instance. the Delphi pike
now must be repaired at cost of
several thousand dollars. although it
was built only last fall. The road
cost S13.139.
The commissioners. il is said, ad-
nit many roads have been poorly
constructed, but say they are not re-
sponsible as they do not pass on the
final acceptance of the roads.
Taxpayers are maintaining an
open mind until the investigation is
finished. II is strictly non-partisan
requests coming from men of all
parties. But the taxpayers have be-
gun TO feel, as have taxpayers in
many counties. that i'm the desire to
build good roads. the authorities
have been lax in seeing to it that
the roads are of he highest quality.
