After a decree of separation has been issued the legal rights of each party would be the same as though they were divorced and both husband and wife would be relieved of all ob- ligations of maintenance except as required by the separation decree.

A governor could not, however, remove a highway com- missioner appointed by a previous administration. The secretary and chief engineer would be separate in- dividuals although the two posts could be combined at the discretion of the commission. The powers and duties of this board would be much broader and more comprehensive than those of the present highway commission if another bill becomes effective. This bill would give the highway commis- sion the right to locate and designate roads, both in the country and through cities and villages, and also would authorize it to “re-locate, al- ter, amend, revise, abandon, improve, construct, re-construct, surface, re- surface, repair, maintain, patrol, mark, re-mark and sign” the state road system.
