eight inch centerand taper off t.
a feather edge at each side of the
grade. The grade on this piece o
highway is standing up in goo'
shape and is in fine condition fo

what action he may take, political cir

who will be named to succeed Truman

Japan and a Detroit LAWYER: Mayor
James Couzens of Detroit William
Alden Smith, whose Senate seat Senator
NewberEy took. and w. w. Potter, state

Gov. Groesbeck declared in a brief
acknowledgment of the receipt of Sen
ator Newberry's resignation last night
that he had no person in mind for the
