The vote was 190 to 133. The House acted after shouting down an alternative proposal that Congress “direct” Mr. Truman to use the Taft-Hartley law. Admin istration supporters argued that this would would be unconstitut ional and would Invade the powers of the executlce. What effect the action will have on Mr. Truman Is uncertain. He has said Congress can request him to seek an anti-strike injunction, but cannot force him to do so.

Report From Engineers Not Yet Completed Dr. Henry Jordan, chair man of the State Highway Commission, told The Daily Record this morning that en gineers have not yet reach ed a decision on which dir ection the new Highway 301 will be routed around Dunn. Governor Scott yesterday an nounced the allocation of $1,300,000 to be used on 301, from the Har nett County line through Dunn. Approximately half of the $12,- 000,000 total surplus was allotted to US 301 in Harnett, Nash, John ston and Cumberland counties. Dr. Jordan said this morning that Highway 301 is being made a part of the new Federal inter-re gional highway system and for that reason heavily-congested areas will have to be eliminated from the highway. ON BASIS OF TRAFFIC These areas he listed as Dunn, Smithfield and Rocky Mount. All of the special appropriations were recommended upon the basis of a survey of traffic and need. There has been talk for some time that 301 will be .re-routed out of Dunn’s business district and Dr. Jordan confirmed the report this morning. He said Federal requirements call for a minimum right-of-way of 250 feet, as compared with XOO feet for normal highway construc tion. “It is quite obvious,” pointed out Dr. Jordan, “that no 250-right-of way could be .found in the copter of Dunn. We wouldn’t want to put such a right-of-way through any town.” he added. SOME SURVEYS MADE He said some suveys have al ready been made here and that others will be made, beginning al most immediately. He said a defin ite decision on the new routing would be made probably within 90 days and that work would pro ceed immediately. Dr. Jordan said he had no idea which route or which direction will be decided on by engineers, but said positively that no decision has yet been reached. Highway engineers Were here several weeks ago making surveys in the area of the old Surles Pond and near the Jesse Tart Estate. ROOM FOR FOUR LANES Dr. Jordan said that the high day to be built Immediately will be only a two-lane highway, but that the 250-foot right-of-way (Continued On Page two) CONSIDERING IT However, he has said that he is considering using the Taft-Hartley law.

Manager Norman Suttles of the Dunn Chamber of Commerce looks on proudly as Gene Smith, left, of The Commercial Bank, and Earl Mahone, right, of the First Citizens Bank, burn the final notes on Dunn’s Memorial Swimming Pool. The pool was built entirely by public contributions. When all but SII,OOO was raised, the two banks each financed half of the remaining indebtedness. This summer, the final $2,500 was raised—largely through the efforts of President .Clarence McLamb of the Chamber. Mr. McLamb headed the drive and did most of the solicitation to pay off the debt. Ironically, the pool was closed for repairs when the ceremony took p ace. It wil be repened Thursday. (Dally Record photo by T. M. Stewart).
