WIDENING OF "THE NARROWS" NECESSARY [Continued From First Page.] ! old Pennsylvania canal as a new lo cation for the highway. Many of the towns along the pro posed highway, especially west of Harrisburg are urging consideration of their importance in connection with the final determination of the route, but the originators of the road are in sisting that the route may be as direct as possible between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. Attention is called to the fact lhat. Indiana is out of the ques tion, lying- as it docs 18 miles north of Blairsville and the road passes through Blairsville. Tyrone is also held to be somewhat out of the way inasmuch as two asphalt macadam roads cover the six miles from Altoona to the William Penn Highway at llol lldaysburg. Commissioner Cunning ham was recently in Johnstown and is said to have given some encourage ment regarding the proposed road be tween Johnstown and Ebensburg. Johnstown is taking an active part in promoting the William Penn High way. Up to legislature The State Highway Commissioner made it clear In his remarks that it Is not his promise to lay out the road, that the most his department could do was to construct the highway laid out by the Legislature. He admitted that some strong influences were back of the William Penn route r.nd that Gov ernor Brumbaugh was much inter ested in the project. Mr. Cunningham also stated that he is quite sure the Governor would never agree to the plan of making the Lincoln highway a part of the proposed William Penn route. Governor Brumbaugh favors two roads across the State and ex- Senator Wertz pointed out that the William Penn Highway was simply the result attained by joining a num ber of Stato road routes together and giving them a name. In 1914 and 1915 the commission ers constructed with prison labor about four miles ol' macadam road between Ebensburg and Cresson, leav ing five miles to be built. This stretch is on the William Penn High way. The road constructed in 1914 cost the county $6,800, or at the rate of about $4,000 a mile. The same rate was maintained In 1915, when $9,000 was spent. When the Slate, the county and the the adjoining townships get together on the Johnstown-Ebensburg road it will mean the construction of a per manent roadway from Good's corner, at the end of the brick paving north ward, out of Conemaugh, to the end of the macadam highway which extends three miles west of Ebens burg. This is a distance of 12 milee or thereabouts. The construction of this road and the building of the needed Ave miles on the Cresson-Ebensburg stretch will put Johnstown in direct communica tion wilh Harrisburg. The road will put farmers of a dozen townships In direct communication with Johns town in all varieties of weather. It. will give automohilists, for example, an unexcelled highway to Eiarrieburii (from Johnstown,) from Harrisburg to the Lincoln Highway at Gettysburg and from Gettysburg over the Lincoln way to Jenners—and then there will be only 18 miles of dirt road back to Johnstown.
