MANY RESIDENTS (Continued from Page 1) ern Pines: “I certainly hope that Mayor Ruggles may receive a deluge of replies to his request for lettps concerning the cutting of the pine trees on Midland Road, and that they strongly protest such an ac tion. “Midland Road is the safest and most beautiful dri-e in the county. “It is regrettable that the ac cident which cost the lives of three young bpys had to happen, and my sincerest sympathy goes out to the parents of these boys. “As to safety, there is no ex cuse for an accident on this road, provided the driver conforms to the State speed law. 'Think what might have happened if that tree had not stopped the car the boys were driving; if it had crossed over into the east bound lane and crashed into another car coming in the opposite direction. “The two-lane road provides both beauty and safety. . Let’s keep the trees by all means!” From Mrs. George Heinitsh, Southern Pines: “Traveling Midland Road four times a day, I am grateful for the beauty and protection of the trees. This is a residential road within the town. The speed limit is 35 miles per hour. “Accidents occur because of violation of the posted speed law and the law of “common sense.” The trees are the innocent by standers! The trees clearly indi cate that this road is a city street and should deter speeding. Re moving the trees is encouraging the speeders and telling them in rffect that everything will be done to help them speed. “Science says trees help purify the air: for every running car ten trees are needed and for every truck, one hundred trees! Keep the trees! Removing them would not solve the problem, but only make it worse. At least the trees protect the innocent driver on the road beyond the trees.” From Mrs. Francis Ray, Pine- hurst: “The great tragedy that hap pened on the double road ^Mid land—had nothing to do with the trees. . “The people who cannot drive on a double lane one-way high way and still NOT miss trees should never be given the privi lege to drive. “If that beautiful lane of pines is ever cut down, you and Pine- hurst will have to change the names of your villages—Southern Grass and Grasshurst. “My heart is with those boys families—I have two children my- self—but stripping tress is NO solution.” Director of Nurses At Hospital Resigns Duncan McGoogan, administra tor of Moore Memorial Hospital, this week announced the resigna tion of Mrs. Juanita Pickard as dinsetor of nurses at the Pine- hurst institution. Mrs. Pickard, who has served in this capacity there since February, 1958, has accepted a similar position at Memorial Hospital of Alamance County in Burlington, j Mr. McGoogan said that no suc cessor has yet been chosen. COMMISSIONERS (Continued from page 1) offices on the third floor of the courthouse and that Farm Bu reau members think an adequate building could be built with the money now on hand. Chairman L. R. Reynolds and other commissioners admitted that it seemed that cutting the cost of the building is about the i only way it will ^et^built. Upshot i of the matter was that Chairman j Reynolds, Farm Agent Fleet Al len Home Economics Agent Miss Flora McDonald and a Farm Bu- r-'^au Committee will consult with Hayes and Howell, architects for the formerly proposed building, to see if those plans can be alter ed or if new plans will be need ed. Mr. Reynolds said he thought the board would go along in ap proving a structure to cost up to $125,000. The Farm Bureau delegation also recommended that the coun ty employ a second assistant farm agent a specialist in forestry, to help farmers manage their wood lands, for production of timber and pulpwood. The county is los ing far more in bad management of timber lands than the cost of such an agent’s salary would be, Mr. Ransdell told the board. The commissioners looked fav orably on this project, too, and authorized County Agent Fleet Allen to look for a man to fill the job. The salary would be shared with state and federal funds, as will all Extension Service person- All board members attended the meeting: Chairman Reynolds and Commissioners John M.

R- Sarnuels, who investigated the accident, said that the truck driver told him he didn’t see the train and that when he heard the train’s whistle blow it was too late for him to stop. Samuels said yester day afternoon that charges against the truck driver are pending. There are railroad warning signs, but no gate or blinkers at the crossing. Both road and rail road, tracks run at that point for some distance in open, flat terri tory. An approaching train would be visible for some distance from the road. The train had left Aberdeen about 20 minutes earlier on its regular run. The crew was com posed of Joe Marks, engineer, Leonard Allred, fireman; Dave Jones, Jr., conductor; and Ed Bratcher and Ch^Hes McLean, Negroes, brakemen, all of Aber deen. The train was under orders not to exceed 20 miles per hour be cause of its heavy load of coal, according to Forrest Lockey, A&R president, with offices at Aberdeen. He could not estimate damages immediately except that they would be “considerable, adding, “The main thing to be thankful for is that those two men weren’t killed.” A wrecking crew and Seaboard Air Line wrecker were busy all Wednesday afternoon in drizzling rain, also on Thursday, at the scene, clearing up the debris and laying new track.
