The Cabarrus county branch of the Raukhead Highway Association per fected an organisation last evening at the court bouse, with aa origiual mem bership of forty-four memliera. This body of citiaena, which will meet each Tuesday evening -at 0 o'clock at the same place, aaa for its purpose the rousing or a sentiment of co-operation among our people, with the object of securing for tbia section the proposed Bankbead Highway, which will con nect Maine with California 4.000 miles of concrete pared road.; -" A fair number of interested persons were present when the meeting waa called to order, and Mr. L, A. Wedding- ton was elected temporary chairman, with Mr. J. O. Hcherf aa temporary secretary. The latter read a letter from the Preshlent of the Bankhead Association, asking that all counties organise. .. ; Mr. C. TV. Bwlnk, who was present In Lynchburg at the meeting some weeks ago, stated what waa planned hy those at the head of the movement. The pathfinders will soon lie coming through this section, and it la np to ns snow tnem what we Dave here. There are several routes nroooxed. he said.; One of them, kaowa as the Capital mute, would run from Rich mond to Raleigh, and then to Columbia..- Another ronte would rua from Richmond,' Greensboro and" to Char lotte, - A third one would -come from aahington, through DanrTTte.' Greens boro and Charlotte, known astlte Pied mont route, - --','- i r : Almnt the first of December, said Mr. Rwlnk, the engineers will be going over the proposed routes, There will tie en gineers from the American Automobile Association, from the Bankhead High way Association, and from the Nation- Government. . There will be twenty or more persons In that party. There was some discussion here as to whether the pathfinders would want pt go over eAch of The different -routes. trom tnts city to t;narlntte. several men -who had talked with Mr. Roun tree when he waa here a short time ago, said that It waa their impression that the local branch is to decide which the best route for these pntbfindcrs and recommend It to them. , The object of the trip of the pathfinders in sim ply to look over the country along the section of country they propose to pass through, and not for the location of any special route, - That part will be left to the engineering party. Mr: vLS T.-HartselL "who waff fllso'l present at the Lynchburg meeting, and waa there eleded a director of the Association, waa called on to tell those present ,what, was expected of -them. no saia inai tne nrancnes tnat are be ing organised all over the country are to further the building of teh highway. in order to do tbia, we mast have mem bers. -Towns all over the country, even where the highway will not pass, are organising and paying their member snip fee of one dollar. " . v '"vf.. At present there has been no appro priation made by Congress for this purpose, aald Mr. HartselL However, there Is a hill, allowing each State a certain amount which is to be used on State highways, and each State can say where this money Is to be spent Congress does not appropriate a sum for the construction of this high way, the plan then -would be to have itch State to designate that its part of the money shall be spent on the route designated by the - Bankhead people. However, there la a movement on foot to have the government build this road for a military highway, since tlie pro posed routes carry it past twelve, of the cantonment camps, x-t; h I si As to the routes proposed, Mr. Hart- ll said that Mr. Rountree had stated that the route was practicaly settled from Atlanta to Gaffney, 8. C The natural way from there to Greensboro would be through this section. : From Greensboro, some want the route to ro via Raleigh-and Richmond,, while ithers want It by Danville, Lynchburg ind Washington.-- The object of an irganlsation would be to get all the people to pnll together,- and see- that the highway comes here. Mr. L. D. 'Coltrane aald that he was nformed by members of the Bankhead Vssociatlon that the government had ilready appropriated 175,000,000 , on his highway, and that It would be no rouble to - secure thla amount each ear on the project." Each. county along he mute accepted will be called upon 'o pay ten per cent of the cost of con struction or tne nignway witnin its nor Several other persona present express- id their Views and their strong desire to hare the highway secured for Ca barrus county and Coucord, and much enthusiasm was manifest. A motion waa made and unanimous y passed that an organisation be per ecfert, and that the temporary aecre- ary solicit funds. - All those present vho desired to do so, were lnvitel to ive in their names as members, and o pay the fee 'of one dollar.! In hort time, forty-four had been. enroll- id, and the memtiershlp fees were turn ad into the secretary so rapidly that he was forced to call for time.
