The public is invited. On The Tar Heel Front In Washington By Robert A. Erwin and France McKusick WASHINGTON. Representative Zebulon Weaver, of Asheville, has taken issue again with Ralph K. Davies, Deputy Petroleum Coordi nator,' over the rationing of gaso line in the North Carolina section .of the Great Smoky Mountain Na tional Park, a condition that ex ists while the Tennessee park area remains free from rationing. Mr. Davies thus far has refused to do anything about the situation. In a follow-up letter to Mr. Davies requesting another confer ence, on the subject, Congressman Weaver pointed out that East Ten nessee gets some of its petroleum supplies by the Plantation Pipeline as well as by overland transporta tion rather than pipeline. "My information is that West ern North Carolina, including the counties irt the western part of the State from Asheville to Murphy have ample resources from which supplies may be had, if permitted to use them," Mr. Weaver said. "Your letter in no particular reaches the specific matter which I undertook to bring to your at tention. As I pointed out ir my letter to Secretary Ickes, to which you reply, as an illustration, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park is situated one half in North Carolina and one half within Ten nessee. The Tennessee side of the park can now secure an unlimited supply, while on the North Caro lina side we are denied this priv ilege. Such places as Waynesville, Sylva, Cherokee, Bryson City and Murphy, which are contiguous to the park, and to Tennessee, are in a very desperate situation. "Naturally; Western North Caro lina has looked forward to the benefits to be obtained from the National Park. Un4er the present setup, these benefits are now en tirely turned over to East Tennes see. The towns which I have mertr tioned and others are as great a distance from the Atlantic Coast as Knoxville and East Tennessee towns. In fact, Murphy and some others are further west than Knox ville. They car obtain ample sup plies of gas without resorting to deliveries from the terminal of the Plantation Pipeline at Greensboro, North Carolina. ...
