A board of supervisors action directs conversion of part of the circuit clerk’s office into a private 10 by 12 foot office for County Attorney John T. Inghram, with the wall separating the two rooms to remain. The plan, reported by Supervisor Fred N Benner’s committee and adopted with concurrence, follows a petition backed by the Adams County Bar Association promising the law library’s present quarters. State Highway Commissioner Marr urged careful study of hard roads and suggested forming a committee for a report at a special session in about a month, while reading a letter from the state highway commission requesting guidance on road improvements and preliminary funding.
