For example, the Commissioners may suggest what percentage of available funds , might' be used for paving and what portion could be set aside for improve ment to unpaved roads, i The law stipulates that such recommendations must be made in writing to the State Highway Commission, and in all cases, tMe Commission has final au- tthorlty:; . v this is absolutely necessary. said Makepeace, "since the State Highway Commission is respon sible to the people for the ex penditure of all secondary road funds." . All petitions for adding roads to the system and deletion of secondary roads from the State Highway system must carry the approval of the local County Board of Commissioners. Peti tions) -for the addition, of a road to tpe State system should be prepared by residents and sub mitted ; to, the local County Boarfl. '. H ;!t i, Since all standards for the ad ditio of roads tq the system are determined by ' the State High-t way j Commission itself, the County !Board; pf i Commissioners generally approves 'such requests and forwards them to the Com mission in Raleigh. The State Highway Commis sion cannot abandon any road on ita' system without the writ ten , approval of the County Board of Commissioners of the county in which the road is lo cated. "We cannot take a road off , the State system," ' said Makepeace, "until we have the consent of the County Board." In issuing the statement, Makepeace called special atten tion to the new role of Division Engineers of the Highwjay Com mission, "II there are an ques tions concerning your road," said Makepease, "we suggest you get in touch with our local High way Division Engineer or Dis trict Engineer first." i i N0rthU Carolina . has fourteen Highway' Divisions .

' Usurpation ' ' ' My hope is that this action will serve to call attention to the Court that it should stick to its legal knitting and desist from moving into the legislative field. Criticism of the Court does not come easy with me; I respect our democratic institutions, but I am compelled to speak out against what Iam convinced is usurpa tion of power whether it be in the judicial, legislative or execu tive branches. If we are to( pre serve ' the balance between the Statejs' and the Federal Govern ment and ihie division of power within the Federal government, it must be done by insisting upon port the bill : : which should 'pro duce 'important national debates. A debate of this nature can be very constructive. . It will inform the people -of the importance of separation of powers and the wis dom of the Founding Fathers in establishing this concept, Dangers of Encroachment The dangers of judicial en croachment are numerous. Per haps one of the most serious is substitution of personal notions of what the law ought to be for what the law is. Another is the meth odical reduction of the States to meaningless zeros, the ultimate of the miscomprehension that Wash ington can do everything better. With these things fresh in mind, iai; reckless o' Wesponsiblt,' t. iv ,, January fay m The Senate unanimously passed the military pay bill last week. While considering the proposal, I was struck by the fact that the Armed Services are today in keen competition with the business world for trained manpower to carry on our complex defense es tablishment.
