in reporting medical ex
penses meant smaller re
funds or additional tax
es to pay —for many tax
payers last year, said J. E.
Wall, District Director of
Internal Revenue for North
Carolina.
To avoid errors on 1967
returns, Mr. Wall advised
taxpayers to read the 1040

Secondary Roar
Improvements
Programmed
RALEIGH The State
Highway Commission dur
ing the fiscal year 1966-67
programmed secondary
road improvements totaling
1,087 miles at a cost of
$20,299,220, including both
regular county allocations
and division-wide secon
dary road funds, State
Highway Commission
Chairman J. M. Hunt, Jr.,
said today.
In addition, Hunt said,
secondary road bond pro
jects programmed since the.
beginning of the bond pro
gram now total $29,146,990
and involve 2,924 miles.
Hunt said that of the
total amount of secondary
road improvements approv
ed from both regular and
bond funds, 2,511 was pav
ing and the remaining 1,500
miles was general improve
ments, including drainage
and stabilization.
At the same time, the
Highway Commission
Chairman said, 114 projects
with a value of $1,487,434
were set up under the Ac
cess and Public Service
Road Program during the
calendar year 1967.
Referring to the secon
dary road activities of the
Highway Commission, Hunt
said, “Many people think
in terms of huge primary
or Interstate type projects
when they think of road
construction, but because
North Carolina is a state of
widely dispersed munici
palities and population cen
ters, the secondary road
system is extremely vital
to its continued growth
and development.
Hunt went on to say that
“The members of current
Highway Commission have
spent many hours working
with county leaders and
staff personnel in develop
ing our highly successful
secondary road program."
