C. Frahm, chief; engineer. The war material, which has been in the possession of the state for several years, has been the source of much contention and bother to the highway com: ion, Frahm said. The material ranged from automobile) trucks in all stages of disrepair to] picks, shovels, tents and similar equipment, much of which was useless to the department. Bids on the entire lot left in the hands of the state were asked in October but were rejected on the ground that they were too low. The} highest bid was $2,500. Since that time the department has sold all the motor trucks and most of the other material for $5,598.88. Most of the material remaining is “junk” and will be disposed of as rapidly as possible, Frahm said. ALDERMEN ELECTED Fessenden.—Fen F. Oser, Ray Clark and T.
