One Man Highway Department Proposed In Iowa Bill

Des Moines March 8 A broad road measure seeks to replace the highway commission with a state department of highways headed by a single engineer commissioner with a 6000 dollar salary. The bill also classifies roads into state county and township systems and imposes new millage for county roads and drainage with optional county engineer employment. Local supervisors would advise on improvements and approve plans, with state review for contracts and specifications, and annual funds directed to primary road maintenance.
