The Big Oil Interests
VS
The People of North Carolina
NORTH CAROLINA will not be deceived by the Big Oil Interests and their inn
ported propaganda expert. If Big Oil is so concerned about the people of our State
and our pocketbooks, why did they raise the price of gasoline within the last
four months? The truth is obvious. They are fighting Road Bonds because the
only increase in taxes to pay for the Bonds will be the lc per gallon increased gaso
line tax. Evidently, if there is any increasing to be done, Big Oil wants it all.
Big Oil attempts to scare-confuse-and
defeat by saying how much money the State will
have without the Road Bonds. J3ut they don't
tell you that the war-accumulated surplus is
about used up. They don't tell you that WITH
OUT THE ROAD BONDS, THE HIGHWAY
COMMISSION WILL NOT HAVE AS MUCH
MONEY TO BUILD ROADS IN THE NEXT
THREE YEARS AS IT WILL HAVE SPENT IN
THE PAST THREE.
The Road Bonds are absolutely needed if
North Carolina is to carry out its PROGRAM OF
PROGRESS.
We stand now on the threshold. Every
time North Carolina has acted courageously to
invest in its own people and future the result
has been magnificent. SO SHALL IT BE again
on June 4th when the decision of '-The Big Oil
Interests vs. The People of North Carolina" is
rendered at the poIJs.

ROAD FACTS
M hat Is The Belter Roads Program?
The plan calls for ‘he paving of 12,000 miles es
secondary roads and placing 35.000 miles of roads
in all-weather conditions.
tl I o II ill Benefit From This Program ?
Directly or indirectly, every man, woman, and child
will benefit For example, only one-third of tile
miles traveled by school buses are now paved,
duce to market problems will be eased for thom
ands Nor will the city folks who benefited mast
from the Road Program of the 1920‘s be helping
only their rural fellow citizens. If the financial
pressure for secondary 'oad improvements is m
lieved. the Highway Commission will have moa
money to spend for primary roads. Good roads are
good for everyone
Who Mill Pag For The Program ?
Highway users. The Road Bonds will not increase
land taxes, income taxes, sales taxes, etc. Repay
ments on the bonds will be made from highway
funds not the General Fund. We repeat for em
phasis. The only increose in taxation will be Ihe
lc oer gallon increased gasoline tax.
Can Tire Program Be Completed In Fame
Years?
The bonds will be issued only as they are needed
and only as the money can be used wisely and eco
nomica Ify It is not anticipated that the program
con be completed in tour years but the authoriza
tion for o full nrmrrrn it; necessary for sound plan
ning.
Mhg \©i Authorize The Bonds Gradually?
Although as just stated, the money need not be
borrowea all at one time sound planning neces
sitates Its oeing autnorized all at one time. If
Highway Commission Knows the money is available,
road olans con be projected on a broad scale.
roper olonning will enable builders to operate en
long stretches at a time. This will speed up con
struction and save money. The expensive cost es
moving heevy equipment from one small fob to an
other -an be minimized. Long haul of materief
from 'ts point of origin can be reduced.
Mho Mill flag Where, When, and Bam fie
Money Is To Be Spent?
The low specifies how much is to be spent in
county There can be no question therefore of
equitable distribution.
The Council ot State will approve the sale of dm
bonds as the money is needed.
The State Highway Commission will make the con
tracts.
