In view of our oonolusions, we have pretermitted a dis-
cuason of Article 1085a, V.A.C.S., as it appears that such art-
Lole merely pertains to the laying out, construction and aoquisl-
tion of a freeway and authorizing closing of streets near its
intersection.
we express no opinion concerning the constitutionality of
the delegation of authority to cities and towns contained in the
fifth paragraph of said Artiole 827a, Section 8.
