Christensen refused Thursday to take official cognizance of a plea of Councilman Williapi Cronin that the U. S. Highway 51 freeway through Janesville is unnecessary or unwise. A condemnation proceeding con cerning damages to be paid Curt Grant, owner of N.

Academy street property, and Cronin, who holds a lease on the Commercial Hotel building there, is pending before the court Judge Christensen listened to Jdm Roethe, attorney for Cronin, and Howard Moss, special counsel for the highway department handling the condemnation proceedings. Roethe contended that there never has been a determination by a jury that the Highway 51 development is necessary or mse. Moss pointfcd out that this is not the law. The State Highway Commission makes the determination of necessity, he said. If state highway routes were subject to determination by juries in every county the chances of a continuous road would be slight, he claimed.

The judge said that in making an appraisal of the Grant-Cronin property he is not sitting as a court, but is acting solely to determine damages. The question of whether the highway is wise, necessary or desirable is not before him, he ruled. He said that it is witWn his jurisdiction to view the property involved, make an appraisal and fix the damages without taking any testimony. It is his practice to take testimony, however, and ha intends to take statements as to value in the Grant case, he said. Because of the judge's to regard hiriLself as a "court" in the appraisal of property, he took no action on a motion of Moss to strike out a part of Cronin's answer to the condemnation pleadings.

In this, Cronin contended that the property was being taken by the state for a highway development which he regards as "foolish." Moss said that he would ask Judge Chri.stensen today to set a date for hearing testimony in the Commercial Hotel matter, and hopes to have it within two weeks. The award of the county judge in condemnation cases is subject to Circuit Court juiy appeal by either side.
