Kittanning-Indiana Pike Improvement Possible in 1920
Armstrong County plans to upgrade the Ritchey schoolhouse to Elderton stretch of the Kittanning Indiana road next year if townships and state fund half the cost. Total estimated at about 600000 with county share 300000 and state and townships split the remaining 900000. Financial constraints in Kittanning and Plumcreek townships make the project unlikely in 1920.
