Winkler Takes Charge of County Roads Plan
The county engineer will supervise all trunk line construction after January 1 with C F Winkler as resident inspector for state and county road work. State engineers will be present but under county control to speed projects in Dickinson and Marquette counties. Delays due to state red tape should lessen, as Winkler’s experience directs both state and county teams.
