Railway through city and connty would mean consolerablc to the future growth and prosperity of the city and entire eo.unfy." Dr. Spencer said. “In brief two of the. main tilings that the city would get b|' the lines miming through it would he addit'onal factory sites on the railroad, and additional express service.” In speaking further on the fact that the projmsed lilies if carried out anti brought through Concord would mean more factory sites. I)r. Spencer said that as Secretary of the Chamber of Commerce he often received inquiries from manufacturers regarding the op portunities for obtaining factory sites on n railroad, and that the new line coining into the city would open tip several very good sites for such plants. ‘The P. and N. Railway carries the American Railway Express and that would give us two express services here.’’ he stated. F. E. Lagerholiu. assistant to the Vice-President of the Piedmont and Northern Railway Company and the Durham and Southern Railway Cmirp any, who has 'been in Concord in the interest of the P. and N. said that about tiO resolutions from clubs, organ izations and individuals of Concord had been sent to the Interstate Com merce Commission telling of the need of another railroad through this sec tion of the State and stating that the future development and prosper ity of this section calls for another railway. In telling of the action taken by the railway company mid the Interstate Commerce Commission, Mr. I-agerholm gave something of the history of the case. “In 1920,” he said, “when the railroads were turned back over to the private owners by the Government it was stated that no railroad construc tion or extention could be commenced without first obtaining a certificate stating that the construction or. ex tension was of public convenience and necessity. It excluded street car lines, infernrban and electric railway lines not operated ns part of a general rail way system. “When the P. and X. Railway Company planned to extend its lines it planned on that law and we files! :iii application with the Interstate Commerce Commission to determine whether or not it had any jurisdic tion over the P. and X. Members said that before they could take any action the I*. and N. Railway Comp any would, have to ask for a dismissal of its application. That was wnen tSc newspapers’ said we were going to change our route.” Mr. Langerholm said that tfie question of the definite route had not been settled. “Tlu- other railroads are arguing that this section has enough railway facilities but tile merchants and manu facturers in this setcion of the State have sent in the statements that the proposed extention of the P. and X. lines would be a great advantage to this section and tiiat the facilities of another railroad are necessary to the development of this section of the State. ‘‘Service is all that the Piedmont, auc? Northern Railway Company has to sell and we want to show that we can give service,” he said. Tlie only woman who was ever commissioned regularly in the Unit ed States army was Arabella Maeom ber Reynolds, who was commissioned a major by Governor Yates of Ilinois in recognition of her gallant conduct at the battle of Shiloh. Her services are mentioned twice in Gen. Sher man's memoirs. THE CONCORD JBILY TRIBUNE ™—- - ms.
