Williams, presi dent, and members of the executive committee, thut the Southern Appa lachian Good Roads association will meet in Ashevllle on the date men tioned. It will be remembered that this association was organized In Asheville nine years ago, largely through the efforts of Dr. Joseph Hyde Pratt This will be the third time the association has met in Asheville. Large Interest is being taken in the proposed meeting and in a letter to th board of trade from Henry Bran son Varner, editor of the Southen Goods Roads Magazine and the Lex ington Dispatch, Lexington, he states that he will be present and use every effort to make the" third mooting in Asheville the biggest success of the entire series of meetings. As a mat ter of fact, Mr. Varner writes that the Southern Appalachian Good Roads association has been a big factor In building sentiment in these southern states composing the association of a uniform system of slate highways and a uniform method of building roads, road signs, rbad machinery, etc., and that standardisation will greatly fa cilitate more rapid construction of hard roads and thereby reduce the cost. 8ecretaryBuckner of the Asheville Board of Trade stated last night to , The Citizen that extraordinary inter est is being manifested in good toads now by everyone and the unbounded possibilities of the southern states, in fact the entire . country, makes the present really the psychological time to provide funds for a state-wide sys tem of hard roads, and he commend ed most heartily the $50,000,000 bond Issue suggested by W. A. McGirt, of the North Carolina Good Roads osso- elation and T." L. Kirkpatrick, of the Asheville-WIUnington-Charlotte high way at a meeting of the executive' committee of the latter highway on January t, at Charlotte. He added that with the provision of $5,000,009- a year for Ave years to natch up a similar amount from the federal aid fund North Carolina could be made better in hard roads than all the states In the union. The eyea of the entire country are being turned to the ex, traordinary wealth and resources of North Carolina, made perhaps, than any other southern state and with a larger fund and a broader vision for state-wide system hard roads, North Carolina will make extraordinary strides In material and educational progress within the Immediate future, ha declared.
