STATE DEMANDS
HIGHWAY CHANGE,
Commission Orders Trunk
Highways 81 and 43 In
tersection Rounded.
OWNER ASKS FOR $500

The intersection Of state trunk high
ways 81 and 43 has been ordered re-
located by the Wisconsin highway COM
mission. The intersection lies in the
town of Somers, and is adjacent to the
farm property of Hans Lathrop of
that village.
The order has just been received by
Frank Zerfas, chairman of the county
highway committee, whose committee,
working with District Attorney Nor
ris Barnett and Assistant District At
torney Lewis Powell, representing Ke-
nosha county, has been investigating
means by which the order of the state
commission could be carried out at
once.
''In order to secure reasonably
safe and acceptable turn in the south
west corner of the intersection of
state trunk highways 81 and 43 in
section 20, town 2, range % east, "
reads the state demand, cit is neces-
sary to acquire some right-of-way from
property owned by H. Lathrop. The
area of this parcel of land is 0.129
acres"
Corner to be Rounded OFF.
The angle of the intersection is to
be removed so that a rounded turn
may be constructed connecting the
two trunk lines. The territory which
is necessary to complete this project
lies on portions of the property of
Hans Lathrop. The owner is demand
ing Of the state the sum of $500 for
the property which the construction
work requires. 1t is pointed out by
county officials that this sum covers
approximately an eighth of an acre,
and it would thereby set value of al
most $4,000 for full acre. The state
is not prepared, it was added, to pay
that sum for the property which it
needs in removing the dangerous angle
in the intersection.
For that reason the county highway
committee with Barnett and Powell
added, is to hold conference on the
Lathrop farm this afternoon with a
view of securing settlement which
would be more agreeable to the state
and county. It was said that if this
would prove impossible steps would be
taken to condemn the property for
the state.

Must Have Water.

Dick Hawkins headed delega-
ton that brought a strange request
to the council on Monday evening.
They were all residents on South
Park avenue beyond Selma avenue,
where a new sewer is being con-
structed. They reported that as
the sewer was being completed the
wells in the district were going
dry and that soon the property
owners would find themselves with
out water.
They asked that the water mains
be laid at the same time that the
sewer was constructed and were as
sured by the council that steps
would be taken to prevent them
from facing water famine.
1t was one of the most iovial
bunch of "kickers" that has been
before the council in many day,
they joining with the council in
seeing the funny side of the sit
uation and in working out a solu-
ton tremendously.

Ice Condition Bad.

On Board Supply. Ship Gertrud
RasK, Near Angmagsoalik, Greenland
Ice conditions along the coast of
Greenland are worse than they have
been in many years and are so bad
that the American round-the-world
tiiers probably will have to refuel on
the North Atlantic on the edge of the
ice field or land in the open water
near their supply ship, the Gertrud
Rask, or fly directly from Reykjavik
to Ivigtut, Greenland.
After encountering an ice field 85
miles wide along the east coast of
Greenland, the Geftrud Rask stuck
fast in the heavy polar ice fifteen
miles from shore and now is unable
to move. The predicament of the
Gertrud Rask, it is expected, will not
hold up the fiers since the airmen
will be able to skip the stop at Ang-
magsalik and get through to Green
land by one Of the three other alter
natives.
