Cunningham said in part this i I deem it a privilege to be with you today I was particularly interested in your meeting this morning It showed that the supervisors of Warren County at least are alive to the situation for better reads in Pennsylvania The Governor when he appointed me did so realizing I was neither an engineer nor a road builder The governor is one of the greatest good road enthusiasts in the state He believes it is more a business problem the conduct of the State Highway Department Good engineers are necessary but business methods of the right kind are more necessary Last fall I was requested by the Governor to attend as many meetings ot the township supervisors in the as possible I am doing so and seeking to find out close at hand what your needs are The road proposition is one of the most vital before the public today Xo longer is the public satisfied to have roads in fairly good condition for a period of seven or eight months a year They want them good
