These lenders would tint permit tlielr
ii.inips to bn useil in coimeetlon with tho

Brumbaugh told them nt the conferences
that he had nslted for and would receive
nii-elow's leslgnntlon before the etui of

been receiving suggestions by the hun
dreds, and during the past slc weeks ho
has conferred with road engineers 111 nil
parts of the Stale, in order tn work out
a new Slate highway system that would
not be as cumbersome ns the present
system.
He has retained Blgplow, who was
"slated" to go nt the time of Governor
Brumbaugh's inauguration, wliilo ho
worked out his plans, so that the routine
work of tho Stntn Highway tlepnrlment
could be continued without Interruption.

Blgelow's term would expire on JutiP 1
next, and for a long time there was a
feeling here that Governor Brumbaugh,
would continue him In olllco tut 1 1 1 then,
but would announce the appointment of
his successor about a month before his
term expired.
County leaders from all parts or Hie
State have been calling upon the Gover
nor during tho last two weeks, urging
him to act on the highway problem nt
once, so Hint work on the roads, espe
cially in the rural districts, could begin
early this year.
Tlio Governor has assured them be will
act within a few days, said members or
a delegation from Hie southern counties,
who visited him early tills week. This
assuiance was given, they said today,
before the resolution Introduced In the
llouso yesterday, by Representative
Jlcnrv I. Wilson, of Jefferson, which
would retain the present Stntc highway
system of nenly lO.OO") miles nt State
roads, and would tie the Governor's
hands in his plan for reorganizing the
