In the group were County Judge Oscar Peterson, Bill Bar ratt, Oliver Creswick and Mayor Al Lamb. The commission told the men that there was little hope for such a project at this time be cause of lack of funds. Limited work is now being done on straightening corners and im proving sections of the Willow Creek highway. The men gained the impression that work will be restricted to that, at least for the foreseeable future. G. A. Booher of Boise.
