Chairman Graham Tells Limitations Oi Funds From Federal Highway Program Since the recent passage of the I biggest federal road-bill in history, : ninny people in the rural areas j think that the Highway Oommis- ? sinn now has unlimited funds to j make extensive improvements on j the primary, secondary and urban loads Such is not the ease. High way Chairman A. H. Graham said today. To clear up any misunderstand ing by the public about the new road bill, he pointed out that "al though a tremendous road program i is under way and a large amount I of federal funds are available, the | bulk of the national road program is specifically earmarked for work ; on only one road system -the In terstate Highway System. "Already we have been contacted h.v individuals and even delega tions who want to get their bid In early for a share In the new federal funds. They don't seem to understand that little of the increased federal funds will be | available for local and county road 1 Improvements. "I hope people will realize that 1 the new road bill provides no ap- j pteciable increase in funds for the I primary, secondary and urban j roads. The lion's share of the in creased federal funds can be used only 011 the Interstate system. The new measure is so worded that the funds cannot be transferred for work on the other road systems.' It's true that during the first year of the program, the State will I receive an additional $25 5 million | fin work on the Interstate system in North Carolina. However, only $3 million more federal funds are available for the primary, see- I Ondary and urban links, he added j With the exception of 1.000 i miles, the routes for the entire | projected 41.000-mile national de- j fei.se Interstate system have al- I ready been designated by the t). | f. Bureau of Public Roads. North 1 Carolina has only 717 miles of this vital interregional road sys tem. It is on these 717 miles that the majority of the new federal funds can be spent. In addition to_ the 717 miles of the Interstate system. North Caro lina has some 11,000 miles of pri mary and urban highways which do not qualify for any of the increased Interstate funds simply because they're not on the designated sys tem. "I'd like to stress that there is no sizeable Increase in federal funds for work on the primary, secondary and urban roads." he said. "If you've got a favorite road project that you'd like to see built now that Congress has passed the big road bill, you might just as well forget it. That sounds harsh, but it's true. Unless your pot proj ect happens to be on the 717-mils Interstate sy-tem, chances are that none of the increased funds can be spent toward it," Graham ex plained. "There are four major categories of federal highway funds: Inter state funds tthe federal govern ment puts up DO per cent and the State puts up ten per cent) which can be used only On the already designated Interstate system: prj- I mary highway funds (financed SO SO by the Federal and State gov ernments) which can be used on all OS numbered highways which are not a part of the Interstate system; secondary highway funds (also financed 50-50 by the Federal and State governments) which are allocated to secondary highways such as NC numbered highways and other roads approved ' by the U S Bureau of Public Roads; and urban funds talso on a 50-50 financial federal-state basisi for federal highways within the ] city limits of municipalities. "State funds for highway's are: | State Maintenance Funds for main- I taining all highways and county roads in the State; State Bettrt ment Funds, primarily for paving county roads other than highways; and State Hetreatment Funds for resurfacing of paved roads." Graham stressed that there can I be no interchange of these funds I except between the Maintenance | ar.d Betterment funds. The cost of < maintenance has been so great in recent years that it has been neces- ; sar.v to use Betterment Funds to j supplement this account. This has 1 been especially true iu the coastal I highway divisions which were hard > hit by hurricanes last fall and in ! the mountainous highway divisions ' which exhausted their Maintenance i Funds in road repair of costly , snow and ice damage of last win-; ter. As a result, county road pav ing has just about played out. In j fact, funds for county road paving are tighter than ever, he said. Besides there being no appreci able yjcrease in federal funds for the primary, secondary and urban links in the new road bill, the cost of road materials and labor is go ing up. Graham explained "This was clearly shown in our last high way letting when, for the first time in several years, bids on highway i work exceeded our engineers' esti mates. There is no prospect of road prices going dow n either with all 48 States embarking on road programs at the same time. In fact, the unit cost of materials will probably go higher. Thi? means that we'll get fewer miles for our money. Graham emphasized that the in- | creased Interstate funds could be used In modernizing only the fol lowing highways which are a part of the Interstate system in North , Carolina and includes the high- ; way from Aahevllle past Canton, Clyde, and along the Pigeon River j route into Tennessee. Dayton Robber Softball Team Slated To Play Champion Teams And Brevard Dayton Rubber's busy soft ball team will take on the Champion V Cubs tonight in the Haywood County League, go against Cham pion's Souhtern Regional cham pions Friday night at Canton, and then will be at home Sundtay after noon for a duubleheader with the Brevard Moorte team. Sponsors o? the twin bill bore will be the Waynesvllle Moose lodge. in two previous games this week, Dayton Rubbur split a pair with the Clyde Independents in the Hay wood League!, winning the find, 7 4, and dropping the second, 3-2. In their winning effort, the rub bermakers girt, eight hits to the losers' five. Junior Howard started for Dayton but got in trouble in the first inning and had to be re lieved by manager Cohen Mat thews. Griffin of CSyde was charg ed with the loss. Clyde took an early lead in the game, 4-2, but DajUuF^fame through with three runrfT^^' the fourth and added one eadPin the filth and seventh innings. In losing last night. Dayton Rubber outhit Clyde, 3-2, but five errors led to the locals' downfall. Neil Wyatt got Dayton's only runs when ho hit a homer with catcher Manuel Hooper on base. Griffin tied up the contest for Clyde with a round-tripper in the fourth and Morgan crossed the - plate with the winning run in the sixth on a wild throw by Dayton's third baseman. > Youngsters Using Magic Touch Land Many Fish From Choice Hole At Junaluska By CLIFTON B. METCALF Old-timers may have their favor ite fishing holes which always pro duce the big opes, but it is doubt ful if any can match in numbers the feat of two youngsters at the , Lake recently. The boys caught a total of 34 j fish in three hours in Lake Juna- ! luska fiom an area about four feet square. Woody Wiggins of Summerville. j S. C., and Lake Junaluska, who is only eight years old, pulled out the iargesl one. It was estimated ! at about eleven inches in length, lie caught a total of 14, and de clined to give the location of his j luck " Spencer Moore of St George. 1 S C, didn't catch an 11-inchcr. but he made up for it in number by landing a total of 20 in the ; three hours. Spencer is 14 and a 9th grade student at St George High School The fish ranged in length from about four inches to eleven with ' an average of about 8 or 9 inches. A spectator, who later caught several nice ones from the satne spot himself, told the following story. It seems that this Negro friend frequently took him. his sister, and a couple of his buddies down to a river near his home to fish. One fine dsy when they were enjoying themselves, a stranger approached carrying a strange contraption un- j der his arm. He inquired about how the luck v. as running, and after getting a "not so good" answer he stepped into the back of a boat anchored to the bank and put down the eon Jtnptioij. which turned out to be ati old-fashioned crank-type tele phony. He put the two loose wires into the water and began to crank, j Meanwhile, he began calling, "here fish . . . here fish . . . here fish." Suddenly a fish floated to the trp of the water several feet away. The stranger kept right on crank ing and calling "here fish here fish," and another popped up. The elderly Negro just blinked j his eyes and glanced from one fish to the other. All of a sudden one about IB inches long came up right in front of him and rolled over on its side. Up jumped the Negro and away he went with eyes as big as | saucers. It seems that the specta- > tor's father couldn't convince the Negro that the fish had been shocked by current generated by the telephone and that they had not responded to the stranger's tall.
