Commissioner Admits State
Failed to Share of
U. S. Money.

Senate inquiry into alleged state
highway department ineficiency
took new turn today as several of
the committee members continued
to gather ammunition for quizzing
commissioners and Director John J.
Brown early next week.
Direction of the inquiry was indi-
Gated at committee hearing Fri
day afternoon where Robert B.
Boren (Denl., Fountain City,, men,
Der OF the state highway commits
sion, appeared for questioning.
Under examination of Senator
Anderson Ketchurn (Dem., Bartho-
NEW, Decatur, Franklin and Union)
Boren yielded the admission that
the department had failed in its
collection Of federal aid funds for
the fiscal year 1880.
i fully realize we didn't collect
all that was coming to u.s." Boren
declared.
One of the reasons for the in
quiry, set out in the resolution in
troduced by Senator Charles L.
Strey (Rep., Kosciusko and Wa
bash) was failure of the commits
sion to collect $500, 900 of available
federal funds while borrowing
$1,6o0,oo0 from the state treasury
to operate.
Asked About Purchase
Strey gave the inquisition new
twist as the hearing closed by
questioning Boren regarding pur-
chase of snow plows.
The commissioner admitted he
had been approached at one time
by material man who asked if
the snow plow business could be
had on the same basis as the year
before"
He denied that he had ever said
that this meant a 10 per cent cut
to a certain commissioner. Such
information had been conveyed to
Strey by former highway commits
sioner George Hershman of Crown
Point, the senator explained.
WAS there an offer made re-
garding these snow plows?" Boren
was asked.
Denies Offer Made
"No, but I think there might
have been if I had Tended an ear
to it, he replied. 81 didn't get the
details of what was meant by 'on
the same basis as the year be-
FORE"
Boren's being approached occurred
before John j. Brown became COM
mission director, he testified.
John D. Williams, Browns prede-
cessor, was present, but presented
no testimony as the commission adj
journed to permit Senator C. Oliver
Holmes CRep., Lake. to return to
Gary for the weekend.
William G. Titus, chief commits
sion engineer, was also scheduled to
appear, but will be called later, Strey
said.
Holmes said earlier in the day
that he felt the quiz thus far was
Just a fishing expedition"

EARLY CAMPAIGN
Outlook in Rockingham Is for
One of Warmest Political
Contests in History.
Special Dispatch to The star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
HARRISONBURG, Va, March D.
Rockingham politics are beginning to
hum months earlier than usual and
indications are that the campaign
leading up the general county election
will be one of the warmest in history.
The county treasurership, now held
by theI veteran legislator, George B.
Keezell, Democrat, under appointment,
seems to be the main objective for cap
ture by both parties. Rockingham is
about evenly divided among Democrats
and Republicans, who usually divide
honors in the county balloting. Both
parties plan to place full county and
district tickets in the field.
Fight Centers on Treasurership.
The Democrats face hard fight for
the treasureship. j. A. Breneman, a
member of the House of Delegates, has
announced for the nomination and
the party race. Mr.. Keezell was APP
pointed in 1928 to fill the unexpired
term Of former Representative j. AL
CARRIER, Republican, who was elected to
Congress two years ago.
So far, no Republican has announced
for the post, but M. H. Harrison, deputy
commissioner Of the revenue, is ex-
pected to run. G. j. Dyche, supervisor
of Stonewall district, also is being men
toned.
Three other important county Offices
also are to be filled in November
sheriff, now held by Democrat, Charles
r. Fawley; commissioner of revenue,
now held by a Republican, Charles S.
Estep, and commonwealth's attorney,
now held by D. Wampler Earman, Re
publican. Sheriff Fawley and Com
missioner Estep plan to seek reelection,
but Mr.. Earman has not made up his
mind.
Juvenile Judge a Candidate.
Shelley L. Devier. juvenile Judge and
a former mayor of Harrisonburg, al
ready has announced his candidacy for
the Democratic nomination. He was the
first in the field.
Because Of the even strength of the
two parties they usually nominate by
convention. II the Democratic contest
over the treasurership is not settled
however, there Is a possibility Of q
primary in August.
