STATE HIGHWAY
MOVE FAILS TO
APPEASE STREY
Continues Fight to UnSeat
Board Despite Action
on Pet Measure.

Action of the Indiana state high
way commission in taking the So
called Hills and Lakes highway into
the state system has come too late
to halt State Senator Charles L.
Strey's fight on Director John j.
Brown and the commissioners, the
senator told The Times today in a
telephone interview from Chicago.
Strey, who is the Republican SEN
ator from Wabash, has been trying
for two years to get the Hills and
Lakes highway taken over by the
state. The highway runs from No
besville through Elwood and north
10 Wabash.
Bill Being Prepared
The senator's contacts with the
commission caused him to launch a
personal investigation of their &C
tivities and he has announced that
as a result of material gathered he
will ask a senatorial investigation
OF the expenditure Of some 500, 00O,-
900 in state highway funds during
the fiscal year just closed.
He also will introduce a bill to
abolish the dictatorship and the
present commission setup and estab-
lsh a full time commission Of at
least three members, he declared
Informed of the commissions &C
ton late Tuesday in taking over the
Ellis and Lakes highway, Senator
Strey stated that his campaign
against Brown and the commission
will continue and predicted that it
will meet with approval on the
senate floor.
