I concur only in the result of the opinion of the Court, and solely on the ground that the statute fixing the term of office of the Chief Highway Commissioner does not specifically provide for summary removal, thereby bringing the case within the general rule that a term of office fixed by statute cannot be cut down by the appointing power without a showing of cause, and the granting of a hearing conforming to the constitutional requirements of due process. *Page 15
