Highway Rerouting Will Be AiredinMontgomeryMonday Before State Comn1iS sion

Jefferson county road matters will again focus attention of the state highway commission when 1t meets tomorrow at Montgomery. Matters to be threshed out include selection of route for the Birmingham Gads- den road and settlement of the con- troversy over proposed rerouting of the Montgomery highway. Delega- tons will be prdsent to argue both questions,
 At the last meeting os the com mission held in Birmingham, 1t was decided to reopen the question of a route for the Gadsden road which had previously been located by way of Trussville. A delegation from the '. NJ. c. A.. headed by the presi- dent and board of directors ap- peared before the commissioners to urge selection of the Springville- Chalkville route. Main argument for the change was presentation of the fact that the Y. M, c. A. has recently established a summer camp on the Springyille road.
 It Is expected that a delegation from the Y. M. c. A. will be present in Montgomery tomorrow to give further emphasis to its request. No formidable opposition has arisen to the proposed change and it Is con- sidered probable that the commis- sion will finally locate the road by way of Springville.
 The Montgomery highway question Is far more complicated. It was also thrashed out at the last meeting and the commission decided to take it up for settlement tomorrow. Dele gations fayoring the change headed by Charles c. Davis, president of the Automobile club, those opposed to the change headed by Capt. Frank S. White and representatives of the board of revenue are expected to att tend the commission meeting.

Montgomery highway was first pro posed publicly by s. R. Batson, Jef- ferson county member of tho state highway commission. He advocated the highway be built along the old Louisville and Nashville right-of- way through Helena and shannon which would eliminate the steep grades over Red and Shades noun tain. In letter to the board of revenue he stated that in his opin- ion the road could be built by the state without additional cost to the county provided the county would agree to keep up the mountain route. The board agreed to do so.
 Objections to tho change were soon raised. Frank s. White main.
 tained that building of the road would require funds needed for other highway work in the county. The cost of the new route would be pro- hibitive also, he stated. passing his claims on a preliminary survey made by George Huntington Clark. enBi- neer.
 Mir. White raised the question at a meeting of the board of revenue and declared that the board by agree Ing to keep up the mountain road was in effect .sanctioning the change. Chairman D. c. Ball replied that the board of revenue would oppose the change If 1t took funds away from other road projects in the county.
 Chairman Ball then wrote W. S. K ellsr, state highway engineer, and John E. Rogers chairman of the state highway commission. inquir- ing If building of the new route would deduct from the pro rate road funds coming to Jefferson county Engineer Kellar replied that in his opinion it would.
 Mir. Rogers wrote MT. Ball that he would be in Birmingham today on his way to Montgomery and that he would be glad to talk the matter over with MT. Ball. IL Is considered possible that tho highway commits sion can of itself build the road if 1t
