II Ml Voters Deciding On Roads Court RALEIGH (AP) North Carolina voters will decide to day the fate of a $300 million road bond issue and a propos al to establish an intermedi ate court of appeals. Despite efforts by Gov. Dan Moore and other state officials to arouse voter interest, a light turnout of 360,000-400,000 is ex pected. The center of pre-election at tention has been the road bond issue. It would permit North Carolina to borrow $300 mil lion to finance road construc tion and to repay the loan from the one-cent-a-gallon gas oline tax enacted in 1949. The other issue would give the legislature authority to establish the court of appeals. It would operate at a level be tween the superior and state supreme courts. Both issues have had many vocal and active supporters. A scattering of opposition has been noted on the bond issue, none of the appeals court. Joe Hunt, chairman of the State Highway Commission has stumped the state in sup port of the bond issue. He has asked for a heavy turnout and overwhelming approval. Gov. Moore has called for passage of the $300 million pro posal in almost every speech he has made in recent months. He said the money is needed to insure a continuing increase in tourism and industry for State Delegates Chosen For Student Legislature Delegates, alternates and ob servers to next February's meeting of State Student Leg islature in Raleigh were an nounced by the SSL Commit tee of Student Government yesterday.

North Carolina. The governor, who will cast his vote in his home precinct at Canton, said North Carolini ans have everything to gain and nothing to lose by voting and asked for its passage. Kelly Alexander, president of the North Carolina chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, said Negro voters would support the road bonds. The civil rights leader esti mated some 290,000 Negroes were registered to vote Tues day. The only organized opposi tion has come from the Ku Klux Klan.

A few yellow and pink leaf lets, attacking the bond issue, were distributed last week in three areas of Raleigh. The court reform amend ment has received the staunch support of supreme and super ior court justices, plus the State Bar Association.

Wicker, an alumnus of UNC, had been tentatively booked for a May 6 speech at State. However, yesterday he said, "I have just written Lee Mc Donald (assistant program di rector at Erdahl-Cloyd Union) that I was withdrawing from my engagement to speak on May 6." Wicker added that this was a "purely personal" matter with him and that he was not trying to lead a crusade. Last week Wicker turned down an invitation to appear on the Carolina Fourm. He Won 9t Make Ruling No ruling will be made on whether Robert Jones, North Carolina Grand Dragon of the Ku Klux Klan, would have been barred from speaking on a state supported campus. In a letter from Attorney General Wade Bruton to Con solidated University President William Friday, Bruton stated that since Jones cancelled his scheduled talk at N. C. State the "need for advice" was no longer necessary. Friday had requested a rul ing from Bruton after Jones took the fifth amendment to avoid answering questions be fore the House Committee on Un - American Activities last week. Jones said he would not speak at State because HUAC had asked him to return to Washington to testify. He was European Study Offered The American Language and Education Center of Mich igan State University will of fer European study programs for college students during winter, spring and summer terms beginning next year.

"I am fiercely opposed to such a limitation as that on free speech," he wrote, "and, while the ban could not apply specifically to me, I believe that it might well be that any one concerned for freedom of speech should refuse to appear at the University while the ban is in effect." Wicker was at first under the impression that the ban applied to speak at State later this month. Friday said he received Bru- ton's letter Saturday morning. It read: "Since receipt of your letter, all press reports indicate it is general mformation and Knowl edge that Mr. Jones has can celed this scheduled appear ance and all others made to speak on campuses of State supported institutions, and the need for the advice requested terminated. Without further request, I shall so conclude." Friday said he would make another request for a ruling "should a similar situation arise."
