Additional “Through Highways”
are being created almost daily by
Pennsylvania municipalities, and
the number will increase materially
within a short time, now that the
Legislature has granted permission
to boroughs and townships to cre-
ate such thoroughfares.
“The Motor Code as effective on
June 1, grants authority to bors,
incorporated towns and townships
of the first class the privilege of
creating “Through Highways,” and
I anticipate that within a compara-
tively short time every arterial
Pennsylvania highway will be a
“Through Highway” as it passes
through built up sections covered
by changes in the code. Originally
this authority was conferred only
upon the Secretary of Highways
and cities of the first, second and
third class. Creation of such high-
ways is quite as complete a traffic
control at intersections as erection
of automatic signaling devices, and
the penalty for violating the. provi-
sion is just.as severe,” said Motor
Vehicle Commissioner Eynon today.

For the third successive day on
Friday an evening storm broke in-
tense heat, but caused a disastrous
fire near Marietta on the farm of
George Shuman, of Florin.
The large barn on the farm at
Mount Joy R. 1, at the fork on the
Mount Joy and Marietta turnpike,
owned by George Shuman, of Flor-
in, and enatnted by John W. Wolf,
was leveled by flames which broke
out after a bolt of lightning struck
the building, causing damage esti-
mated by the owner at $15,000.
Wolf was overcome by smoke
and heat fighting the fire, and a
visitor on the farm, Andrew Loy,
eighty-three, of Perry Co., was hurt
when struck by a falling ladder.
Both were recovering late Friday
night.
The barn, one of the largest in
vicinity was protected by lightning
rods, but despite this fact lightning
struck at or close to it four times
since Thursday night.
