W. J. Plint, Esq.,
Clerk Board of Commissioners,
Beaufort, N. C.
Dear Sir:
I have yours of the 13th instant,
enclosing petition with respect to
TAKING OVER AS A PART OF
THE State Highway System, the
road leading from highway No. 10 to
Stella, etc. and also THE ROAD
FROM BEAUFORT TO ATLANTIC.
Your resolutions will be placed be
fore the State Highway Commission
at its meeting on the 19th instant.
Yours very truly,
R. A. DOUGHTON,
Chairman State Highway Comm.
It seems to us that the Board of
Commissioners had taken all the
Steps in their power to have the State
take over the roads or at least part
of them and had applied the Gas Tax
! nionev in a sensible way, if not the
'particular way you or I may have
Idone. But we continue
It appears that early in January
000.00 or $26,000.00 not used in
maintaining the roads could be ap
plied to the indebtedness of the coun
ty. In other words: I told the Mass
Meeting, that with the Atlantic road
and the Stella road maintained from
State funds and not from the one
cent gasoline tax due the county, my
opinion was, that tne state couia
maintain the balance of the system
for about $10,000.00 and if this were
so the county would have returned to
it at the end of the year whatever
difference there was, and this could
be added to what could be paid from
the general road fund should go a
long way towards paying the coun
ty's indebtedness. There is one
thing I would like to make clear to
you and that is: If we were to take
over the roads for maintenance all
this county would be required to pay
towards this would be the one cent
extra gasoline tax, and we would
have to keep th roads up regardless
of what it cost, and if this could not
be paid for from the one cent gaso
line tax the county could not be re
quired to pay any other sum."
AND WHEREAS, it is made to ap
pear from the foregoing that the pro
posals therein made, if made, were
to a Mass Meeting unofficially, and
not officially to the Commissioners of
Carteret County at any regular or
special meeting by them. However
said proposals now having been em
bodied in a letter and addressed to
a member of the board of Commis
sioners of said county it is assumed
as a fair interpretation of the pur
pose of the letter that Mr. Wheatly
now desires and does, acting as a
Creek and Mansfield-Ocean, and that
any recovery made by reason of said
actions (or otherwise) shall be and
remain the exclusive funds or prop
erty of Carteret County.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED:
That a copy of this resolution be
forthwith sent to Hon. C. R. Wheatly,
State Highway Commissioner, for
his acceptance and approval, a copy
be sent to the State Highway Com
mission, Raleigh, N. C, a copy be
sent to each of the papers published
in Carteret County, and a copy be
spread upon the minutes of the Board
of Commisioners of Carteret Coun
ty, and therafter filed in the records
of the County i nthe office of its Aud
itor.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED:
That the Hon. C. R. Wheatly, State
Highway Commisioner, be and he is
hereby respectfully requested to ad
vise the Board of Commisioners of
Carteret County of his actions in the
premises, and if the same does not
meet his approval to inform the said
Board wherein the same departs from
his proposals made to the Board
through Mr. Lee.
Unanimously adopted by the Board
of Commissioners in special meeting

All of this was published in the

and we think it appeared in the More

What more could the Board do?

On the 27th day of December 1929

Generally in this District these

said and I will be glad to have any
omission called to my attention.

authority as CommUsioner to dispose
of without recourse to the Commis

gest, either in your office, in my of
fice or at a mass meeting of the
Board of Commissioners of Carteret
County in the court-house next Mon
