Jt is hotH-d to have the preliminary organization along the entire high way completed in time to hold a na tional organization meeting n A'ne ville in early September, at which time permanent officers ill be elect ed and the present tentative plans en dorsed or impioved upon. As now contemplated the Appala chian Scenii' Highway will be divided for administration purpose into five sections: the Gulff. Blue Ridge, Shen- andfoah Valley. Central and Maple leaf. Each of these will be headed by a pi'esident, who will !e, ex-offlcio. a vice-president of the national or ganization, and with the pre 'dent and general manager, form the national governing board. Thus each aection of the highway will be adequately represented. If found desirable, there wall also be senarate state organiza tions. It is further planned to give touiista on thi.s highway the best service po eible. Each local organization will be required to keep the central office ad vised at all times of the exact condi tion of roads in it section, and this information will be broadcaat to all organizations on the route. Conven ient, exact maps end logs will be pre pared and furnished to travelers, through touring bureaus, chambers of commerce, leading hotels and gsrafes, etc. U is planned to so thoroughly nark the tilghway throughout ' its entire length that the driver can fol low the markers without the elighteet doubt or heaitatlon.
