when thirty big Packard trucks. loaded
almost entirely with Red Cross sup

in Crown Point.
These trucks were started from Ak
ron. Ohio. went to Toledo, Ohio. thence
to Detroit and then on west. They went
into Chicago via The Dixie highway
but came out through East Chicago.
Their destination was unknown.
This matter came before the County
Council Of Defense at Crown Point yes
terday and the information was given
that there was only one piece Of bad
road over which such trucks would have
to pass in making this journey through
the county and that was a short stretch
Of the Indianapolis boulevard. through
Whiting.
As a result of this information. the
council passed resolution calling the
attention of Whiting city authorities
to this deplorable bit of road and sug-
costing that any plans for is improve
ment be fastened with all possible
speed.
1t ia understood that whiting has had
plans for this improvement for some
time but that difficulty has been ex-
perienced in making the necessary pre-
liminary arrangements with one OF the
railroad corporations that would be
subject to special assessment.
