Senate Committee Has State Highway Bill Under Consideration
Amendment to Constitution Would Permit Activity in Road Building
---
Toptea, Feb. 10—A constitutions amendment to permit the state to enter into the building of highway is now before the senate committee on roads and highways, of which Senator Gray of Kansas is the chair.
The amendment must be presented in both Senate and house to be constitutional. Some of the members of the committee desire to empower the state to enter into every phase of development of the system of state highways, while others would not grant such wide powers.
The state constitution as it reads at present forbids the state to extend a power of attorney program, leaving all work in the hands of the counties. The state is threatened with theWith withdrawal government finds it inconvenient to deal with 105 subsequent county boards. If the amendment is passed there will be no longer a power of attorney program in the hands of the counties.
A controversy regarding the form of the amendment in the committee. Some of the members want to specify the amount of tax that can be levied, and the disposal of the funds, while others are holding on to some statement granting the state power to enter into highway building.
Fireproof Wires Made
New Use of Selenium Maker Invention Possible
(Telephone Service)
Cambodia Service 10.-Fireproof insulation for telephone switchboard wires is made possible by a new use recently discovered here of retention, an element whose chief use hitherto was in its appearance current by light. The fusing proof of switchboard wires is highly important for even a small fire can undo many hours of work and throw a whole exchange out of commission. In use are only partially successful.
The peculiar thing about the use of solderin for this purpose is that the element.kaffi can be burned. Only when it is used on the cotton covering of the wires does it take on fireproof qualities. But then the wire reacts all ordinary fumes, and even when ignited by the interior of a blown棉 goes out immediately when the outside flame is removed.
