Addison, chairman of the Highway Committee, informed the directors that correspondence had been exchanged with district en gineers on the signing of U.S. 97 at Weed. "They replied," Addi son said, "by stating that under the now interstate rules, the in terstate road gets the long range signing while the others get the short range.
