 The matter Of adopting a building | line on Cook street which has been up before the town plan commission for some time and was held ups due 10 the possibility that a new law, passed by the last legislature, would conflict with a decision Of the town plan commission. will now soon be ] settled by the commission,
 The new law does not in any way conflict with the powers of the town planning body except In extreme eases and Is optional with the high way commissioner. As deNned in Chapter 263, Section 40, the ne" law reads in part as follows;
 Substitute for House Bill No. 6I6.
 Chapter 263--Sec. 4a,
 Boundaries Of highways. When ever, in the opinion of the highway commissioner, the boundary lines or limits of any state aid or trunk line
 highway shall have become lost or uncertain, the highway commission CT may cause map or maps or such
 highway or trunk line to be made and reestablish such boundary line or limits as, in his judgment, the same may have been estahhshed' and. for the purpose of establishing such lines, the highway commls- sioner may condemn land under the provisions of section S5, S6 and 57 oi l this act or may make agreements | with any Of the adjoining owners oi | land concerning such lines.
 | The expenses. costs and fees o'
 the highway commissioner for legal
 engineering or other services, lanf - damage or other damage in re 5 establishing such boundary lines ' shall be paid from the funds re l ceivei from the commissioner O motor vehicles.
 This leaves the matter open fol
 the highway commissioner 10 fix tho highways bounds, If he desires to dc
 SO. and the expense of notices, pre-
 raring maps. condemning land. II
 fact, all expenses in connection Witl s same, shall b, paid out of the fund
 received from the commissioner O - motor vehicles. This makes it tn
 likely that the commissioner wi!
 act very frequently.
 - The highway commissioner di' F not act under this law with reEar g to Cook street and in all prohabilit IF will not presume 10 establish line n except where the state is directl n interested.
 N Some of the town plan commissto ,. members are Now on vacation, br .a this matter of Cook street alon , with others of importance, will b taken up directly on their return. V. Veteran Bodies Elect
