State Highway
Department Set
For WinirY Blast
1900 Tens Of
Ashes Will Be
Used In County

Noble county highway en-
ployees are working feverishly
this week to complete the mount
ing of all snow plows and lights
to the departments trucks as the
state highway department pre-
pares for winter weather and
icy roads.
Ash carts are being repaired
and readied for use and already
carload of calcium chloride has
been received and stored at the
local yard. This order represents
ten thousand bags of the ice
melting chemical and the depart
ment has on order one hundred
tons of rock salt which is mixed
with ashes and sand to combat
slippery highways.
According to highway officials
l4O0 tons of ashes are already on
hand. Approximately 1900 tons
OF ashes are used normally dur
ing the winter. All equipment
used to combat slippery high
ways this winter will be inspect
ed this week by officials from
the highway department in Co.
lumbuS.
This week, workers from the
local department are busy
spreading tar and Stag on all
hills and curves on route 78, east
of Caldwell. The crews are en-
deavoring to improve the road,
which becomes one of the most
treacherous in the county follow
ing rainfall. Several accidents
during the past year have occur
red as a result of skidding We
hicles.
The new bridge being con-
structed at Road Fork will prob
ably be open to traffic this week.
Although the contractors still
have a lot of work to do before
the job is completed, they have
decided to remove the old COW
cred bridge and route traffic
over the new structure. The old
structure, one of the county's
oldest landmarks, is now being
used to shuttle traffic across
Duck Creek just south of the
new bridge.
The last phase of the depart
ments work to raise State Route
l45 out of flood stage is being
completed. A fill, 1850 feet in
length, is being completed near
the Anna Walker home. This fill
will raise the highway a max
imum of two and one-half feet
and raise the roadbed out of the
flood waters of the east fork of
Duck Creek.
Last month, a similar project
was completed just south of the
Harriettsville corporation limits
on the same highway.
The prime coat has been
spread on State Route 295 10 the
approachs of the new bridge
there. The bituminous top WI
be rolled this week and tn
bridge opened to traffic hnmcc.

Truman Appointment
OF Judge Inks Gillette
On Eve Of Iowa Parley
ay sAs Alsa<soses p-sss

A blast by Senator Gillette.
Democrat. OF Iowa at one Of Pres
ident Trumans appointments
sounded q sour note today in the
Democratic tune-up for q forth
coming Des Moines farm meeting.
Senator Gillette, who had been
counted on TO help preach the
administration doctrine in his
State In next years election. said
yesterday that the Presidents
choice of Carroll Switzer for Ped
eral Judge in Iowa came as q
great and unpleasant surprise TO
me"
The Iowa Senator said he had
expected. as a part Of long esiab-
lished senatorial courtesy" that
the court post would be filled by
one Of two men he named. He had
suggested William r. Riley of Des
Moines and Ed Halbach of Clinton.
Switzer Named Instead.
instead. the President named
Mr.. Switzer. Democratic candidate
for Governor who was defeated
last fall when Senator Gillette won
his Senate seat.
Jake More. Iowa State Demo-
cratic chairman. was generally
credited here with having put the
Switzer appointment across.
The Presidents action plunged
Iowa Democrats into turmoil al
most on the eve pf the party con-
ference on the Brannan farm plan.
It opens in Des Moines tomorrow.
1t has been advertised by DEM
ocratic National Chairman Nc
Grath and other party officials as
the opening of a drive to capture
the farm vote in the Midwest.
Senator Gillette is something OF
an expert on the farm vote. as he
demonstrated when he carried
Iowa by nearly 10000 votes last
November while Mr.. Truman was
winning the State by $4,000 and
Mr.. Switzer was losing in the Gov
ernor's race by about l25 900.
The Iowa Senator made 1t plain
he regarded the Presidents choice
Of Mr.. Switzer as a direct slap.
Statement Issued.
II have every respect for Mr..
Switzer's high character and
record" Senator Gillette said in a
statement. Il am unable to un-
derstand. however, the course that
this matter has taken and I find
such course unexplainable on any
other hypothesis than 1t is and
was intended to be a direct affront
to me-"
Senator Gillette's aides said
they are at a loss to know why
he should be the target for any
White House displeasure.
The Iowan .never has been a
strict follower of the administra-
ton line. In fact he was top man
on the list of Senators the late

purge In 1888 because they op-
posed the FDR court packing
