amendments Wednesday, reported
favorably on the Baynard road meas
ure. The bill as passed by the house
names sixty-six highway routes to

ual members to deprive themselves OF
the privilege Senator Williams stated
that if members of the house had
right to write routes in the bill he
and any other member OF the senate
had the same right. He stated further
II there was not some limitations OF the
highway system it would never be
completed, and parishes which had al
ready built their roads would not be
reimbursed as provided for in the
terms of the bill for perhaps nearly
century.
The committee adopted an amend
ment to the bill to reduce the salaries
of commissioners to 5000 year, and
providing for -the appointment of the
first chairman by the governor and at
the expiration Of his term his success
sor is to be selected by the board.

tors Butler Hood, Lawrason and Davey
was appointed to draft measure max
ing ample provision for reimbursing
