WILL ASK OHIO ROAD
INVESTIGATION MADE

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Feb. 27.-An in
vestigation of the Ohio highway de-
partment, which he charges has al
lowed evasion of specifications in road
work, incorrect plans, tagging work
with no adequate inspection of con-
struction work, and favoritism in dis
tribution of funds, will be asked by
Stanley Pugh. former Ohio highway
engineer. who resigned recently from
the state highway department.
Evidence gathered by Mr. Pugh will
be forwarded to Washington to the
bureau of public roads, together with
request for investigation of the Ohio
department, of which Leon C. Herrick
is the head. One plan before the state
department, he says, called for an
eight-foot pavement with a 16-foot
foundation in a 16-foot excavation.
Other instances were cited of two and
one-half inch tops on hard roads when
specifications called for three inches.
,, Mr.. Pugh was called into Herrick' S
office Saturday and asked for his res
ignation, which he promptly gave, al
though he is a civil service employe

hard time. There are no buyers for
Swedish grain. The big mills have

employed, the market for all farm
products is poor So goes the vicious
circle in Sweden.

answer of a Swedish paper: THE
