HAGGART CASE
IS DECIDED IN
FAVOR OF STATE
Judge Cooley Rules Type Of
Paving Is Up to Commits
sion, Not Engineer
PRISON ROAD INVOLVED
Highway BODY and County
Beard Can Again Consider
Improvement Project
PRISON ROAD INVOLVED

The state highway commission and
not its chief engineer is charged with
the responsibility of selecting the
type Of paving to be used on state
roads, according to- u decision by
Judge Charles NJ. Cooley in the Hay.
gart Construction cOmpany case. re-
ccivcd here today.
The case involves the validity Of a
contract held by the Haggart Con
struction company for the paving Of
two and onc-half miles Of the Red
Trail from Bismarck to the state pen
itentiary.
In his order Judge Cooley upheld
the contention Of the highway COM
mission that the Haggart company's
answer to the amended complaint did
not state facts sufficient to consti-
tute a defense.
The Chief Point at Issue
The states demurrer, which placed
in issue all the facts of tho case, con.
tended that the chief engineer had no
right to select type Of paving and
award a contract without the specific
authorization Of the highway commits
sion. This was regarded as one Of
the chlcf paOints at issue in the
case.
II was discovered, u few DAYS after
the retirement Of w. G. Black as chief
highway engineer year ago, that he
had signed II contract awarding the
paving job to tho Haggart Construc-
tion company.
Governor SOrlic and other members
Of the highway commission objected
to the action and when II. G. Frahm
became chief engineer he notified the
Haggart company that the state
would refuse to 30 through with the
contract Black had signed, which call
ed for the use Of bitulithic surfacing
Injunction Hats Work
The Haggart company, insisting
that the contract was valid, began
work and was halted by nm injunction
obtained BY Patrick Sullivan, a tax
payer. in an action to test the valid.
ity of the contract. Members of the
highway comm mission were joined with
Sullivan as plaintiffs in an amended
complaint and the Burlcigh county
commissioners and other county OF.
ficials were joined with the Haggar
company as defendants.
Unless Judge Coolcy's decision is
carried to the supreme court the cloud
which has rested over the improve.
ment project will be lifted and the
highway commission and county com.
missiOners will be free to consider
the road improvement project on an
entirely new basis.
Objection to the Haggart contract
by the highway commission was based
on the contention that the price of
$137,5O0 was much too high and that
q satisfactory pavement could be had
for much less money: Governor Sor-
reduce the cost Of the work by using
prison labor, since the pcnitcntiary
is close ut hand.
Following as it did Blacks removal
as highway engineer the case threat
cncd, for u time, to become n political
issue and charges and counter charges
! were heard on all sides. various fac
tions contcnding that efforts were be.
ing made to throw the job to favored
! contractors.
