The following ;addressVY.as de
livered last Tuesday evening by
Mr. M. L. Shipman before the an4
nual meeting of the Northv CaroT
lina Oood Roads : Association
which convened in Winston-Sal-em
on Monday 13th: v -
Mr. President and members of
the North Carolina Good Roads
Association : V '
Unity of purpose, necessary to
the success of every - great and
beneficial movement affeeting the
welfare of a people, is certainly
essential in road construction.
Next to actually having the good
roads the most important phase of
the good roads problem is a well
defined public sentiment for unity
of purpose in their ". construction:
Such a jmblic -sentiment in this
state would mean tlie dawn of a
good roads mUlennium in North
Carolina, and it is coming right
along. . . V..- .. :
Many there are who already see
in the Wilmington-Charlotte, the
Charlotte-Asheville highways, and
the proposed Central Highway
stretching clear across :the State
from Beaufort and Morehead
City to J the Tennessee line, a
cheering, sign of this unity of
purpose, and who point; to the
New York-Atlanta highway as a
still more encouraging indication
of the rapid growth and spread of
an idea which means a very great
deal for the public roads of this
State and country. ? ! : .
The potential value of unity of
purpose in road , construction is
best exemplified,, possibly, in the
four instances , referred to. In
the . AshevUle-Charlotte,;. the; Wil
mingtori-Charlbtte- and th6 Cen
tral Highway projects, the1 peo
ple of many different tjountiesy in
widely separated sections 1 are
working in unity for the construc
tion of highways which shall be
of vast benefit to them all. In the

towards its logical conclusion,
which is a National Highway,
stretehing from sea to sea, with
numberless and far-thrown arms,

people .will typify : the true' mean;
ing of : unity of purpose, for all
time to come.'
The consummation of these four
great highways pro jectedX will
mark an epoch in- the history
of the State and show a result
greatly to be desired by advocates-
of better roads for the en
tire; State. I have been advocat
ing ; such a- policy; in road con
struction for some years, as the
following, extract from an ad
dress' delivered by me before the
Southern Appalachian Good
Roads Association, held in the
city ' of -Asheville, October 57,
1909, will indicate:
' Suppose the State were the
mountain-to-the-sea turnpike, be-
' ginning, say, at Asheville and
terminating at Wilmington ? Sup
pose that to encourage the con
struction of feeders to this great
arterial highway it were to issue
its ' bonds in adequate amount,
and deposit them with theState
Treasurer to be delivered in pro-
i portion to bonds tissued by the
