U.S. Highway 281
Leaders Reelected
Officers of the Nebraska unit
of the U.S. Highway 281 associa
tion last Thursday were reelected
in a meeting at Hastings. The Ne
braska chapter is incorporated
with headquarters at O’Neill.
The officers: Earl Carpenter of
Red Cloud, president; C. L. Bis
hop of Bartlett, vice-president;
John R. Krotter of Spencer,
secretary-treasurer.
In resolutions, the association
recommended that designation of
281 as the American Legion
memorial be requested at the
rext legislature. This has already
been done in Texas, Oklahoma,
Kansas and North Dakota.
The association also urged that
the center of the highway be re
flectorized and urged the state
to complete hard-surfacing high
way 281 across Nebraska.
The association also resolved
to back the state and the city of
Hastings in the widening of
Hastings’ Burlington avenue.
State Engineer L N. Ress told
the group that two million dollars
would be spent on the highway
in the 1953 - ’54 biennium and
another half million would be
spent in the 1956-’57 biennium.
Only 40 miles of 281 is not hard
surfaced. Current work includes
four miles of hard-surfacing south
of O’Neill and six north of here.
No Action on
Relocation—
The state highway commission
took no action on pending road
relocations when it met Monday
in Lincoln for its monthly meet
ing.
State Engineer L. N. Ress said
the commission will study LB 187,
the highway recodification bill
passed by the legislature, before
announcing its decisions.
Five relocation matters are
pending. They are U.S. 281, be
tween Spencer and Ft. Randall;
state 35 between Wakefield and
Emerson; U.S. 30 at North Platte,
and the South Omaha access road.
LB 187‘ provides that the com
mission advise the highway de
partment in writing of its position
■on any relocation matter. Final
word rests with the governor, who
has supervision over the depart
ment.
The commission was in session
less than two hours Monday. Ress
described the meeting as “rou
tine.”
Meanwhile, Ress, who has re
