Jess Murden. The successor OF Muir
den failed to follow the same course.
AS a result, the commission &C
tually has passed a resolution to
follow the highway law, build no
hlacktop paving that can not quail
fy for federal aid, and to leave all
construction under direction of Will
liam H. Titus, chief highway en-
gineer.
These simple sounding resolutions
cover the basis of constant conten-
ton since the very founding Of the
state highway commission.
Try to Find LOophOle
So intense have the issues become
that opinions of the attorney
general were neglected, and the
commission has spent several weeks
trying to find way around the re-
cent court decision which con-
demned their practice of blacktop
letting.
Brown, Wedeking and Melton are
reported to have held out hope for
further blacktopping under the A.
H. Hinkle plans, when the commits
sion convened in an unarlnounced
session at New Albany Tuesday.
Throughout the morning they
fought vigorously.
Melton appeared in uniform of
national guard colonel, he being
encamped with the Indiana troops
at Camp Knox, Kentucky.
But Sapp, supported by the vet
eran commissioner, Robert Boren,
outgeneraled the trio and forced
surrender despite superior numbers.
He had the law with him as an ace
in the hole.
Titus Takes Charge
The result was the resolutions
passed Tuesday afternoon and about
which no report was made until the
story of the conflict reached The
Times today.
Titus now is to have complete
charge of construction as two
year-old opinion of Attorney-Gen-
eral James M. Ogden points out
that the law provides.
Hinkle is to return to his job as
maintenance superintendent and
leave off building blacktop and buy
ing great tons of stone.
Only two of Hinkles blacktop
roads have qualified for federal aid
this summer. They are State Road
90 between Versailles and Madison
and State Road 40 south of Clover
dale. Contracts for their construc-
ton have not yet been let.
Hinkle had planned to collect
some 100000 of the piled up federal
funds for Indiana.
Now plans, which qualify, are ex-
pected to be produced by Titus.

NEWsREEL RECORD IF
 ALASKA COMPLETED
 FOR FOX AND HEARST

fUR TUX ANU HEARS l Thirty-five thousand feet of news
 reel covering the Dawson, Nome and the Alaska Railroad belt, as well as the Valdez area, were ob- tained during the three months Eric Mayell, cameraman and Oscar Darling, sound engineer, H r st Metrotone News and Hearst Movie tone News, spent in the Northland. The NeWSreel men returned Thurs day from the Interior and are en- route to Seattle on the SS. Yukon, thence to their New York offices.
 For the first time in the history of Alaska "talkie" newsreels have recorded a section of the Territory's scenic appeal and, due to special portable equipment, it was able to use planes in the work; on the Mount Mckinley expedition their planes rose four miles in the air. Also, because of planes, spectacular pictures were obtained among which that of Columbia Glacier and Mt. Mckinley rank supreme. MT. Mayell stated planes literally saved them months of time and that Alaska airplane pilots are comparable to the best in the the States.
 MT. Mayell also took occasion to comment on the many courtesies extended to MT. Darling and him self especially that of the Coast Guard and of Colonel Otto F. Ohl- son, general manager of the Alaska Railroad. Everything possible was extended for both their comfort and their tasks These manifestations were highly and sincerely appre- ciated.
 Just week ago last Saturday, in two planes, Darling with Chief Pi- lot Joe CrOSsOn of the Alaska Air ways, and Mayell flying with Pilot Ed Young of the same company, scared into the skies, up and over Mt. Mckinley which height is of ficially placed at more than 20,- 900 feet. Darling's plane flew about 100 feet over the top while that of Mayell's owing to the heavy equip ment, could not quite reach the apex. Excellent pictures were pro- cured of not only North Americas tallest peak but also of the innum- erable glaciers, smaller mountains and wild game in the National Park.
 The men were warmly clothed and at no time uncomfortable though the minimum temperature registered 10 below zero. The high altitude brought slight headaches. Darling. while over Mckinley, drop ped a can in which had been placed a piece of leather upon which had been burned the names of the cameramen, pilots and other data.
 A system of signals was previous ly arranged between the two pilots so that while on the epoch flight unison was maintained. Slight all terations were made in one of the planes to accommodate the camera.
 The pilots and passengers took physical examinations prior to the hop; this, in compliance with De- partment of Commerce rulings.
