Entire State Takes Part In Celebrating Chowan Bridge Event From Currituck to New Hanover and from Sea to Mountain* Came Throng at Edenton Wednesday EHHINGHAI S PRAISED His Speeeh of Weleomc Made Fine Impression and Evoked Favorable Comment on All Sides Close to 15.000 persons from the. length and breadth of North Carolina and her sister states fathered in old Edenton Wednes day to rejoice amid pageantry. speech mailing and feasting over the breaking of the last barrier between the Northeaatern counties and the remainder of the State on the occasion of the opening of the half million dollar Chowan Bridge. a structure of concrete and buttreasrd timbers stretching a mile and a half across the lower Chowan Rlrer. The scene was one to atlr the Imagination, as Frank C. Kugler of Washington, member of the State Highway Commission from the First District, clipped the ribbons, after a brief ceremonial In which Lieutenant Governor J. Elmer Lonj; welcomed represen tatives of the seven counties to the north of the Albemarle Sound back Into the Intimate relation With the rest of the State that they bad enjoyed before railroads had taade North Carolina rivers bar riers to inatead of bearers of com merce. Overhead there circled two large Army dirigibles, the TC-5 and the TC-9, from Langley Field, accompanied by an escort of alx planes. The buge blimps, their sides gleaming silver In the morning tun. dipped until their landinK ropes trailed the tops of the long line of automobiles on the bridge. Then the two levia thans of the air settled into a straightaway course over the mile . and a half length of the bridge. ' aide by side. XI A Gala Occjwkm The crowds cheered. Prom the Coast Guard cutter Pamlico, moored In close proximity to the bridge, there came strains of mar tial music by the Army band at Fort Bragg, on hand for the occa sion. Then, a** a Ions line of auto mobiles from the west passed over the great new structure, the cars from the east proceeded to a point near Governor Charles Eden's original tomb, turned about, and swung In behind them on the jour ney to Edenton. At the town limits of Edenton, "there was a aecond bit of cere monial, when representatives of 'North Carolina's ancient capital, dressed In Colonial costumery. ten dered the keys of the town to Lieutenant Governor Long In be half of the visiting thousands. In the vanguard of the proccssion was an antique carriage, originally the properly of Governor .Samuel, Johnston, of Edenton. The value of the bridge, as a practical factor in the upbuilding of the material Wealth of the State; as a means of improving ?oclal relationships between North Carolinians, and as a mighty spiri tual factor in breaking barriers of misunderstanding and Intolerance, was discussed by speakers In the .program that followed on historic Edeaton Common. The official program closed with a luncheon In Willis Terminal, overlooking plac idly beautiful Edenton Bay. at " hlch Judget Francis D. Winston. Windsor, waa toastmaster.

Elmer Long, Lieutenant-Gov ernor of North Carolina, Is strong ly in favor of dropping the tolls on the Chowan Bridge. He stated himself thus In the course of an address at the bridge celebration at Edenton and Eden House Wed nesday, in terms that could not be misinterpreted. Declaring he was glad the Northeastern counties were back In North Carolina physically, aS| they always had been in spirit, the Lleutenant-Govefnor voiced a fee4 ing that Justice at Instead been done theee seven counties, and that the State at last had paid a long standing debt. "But I don't like tolls," he went: on, "and if I can do anything to I repeal them?anything under God! Almighty's sun?I'll do it." Mr. Long went on to say that If It wasn't unconstitutional, he would undertake a campaign of lobbying In the next General As sembly to remove the tolls. Chairman Prank Page, of the Stato Highway Commission, de clared Mr. Long's remarks anent removal of the tolls struck a re sponsive chard tn his heart. He wem no farther, however, other than to say that the collections from the bridge In the first 17 days of operation had far exceed ed the expectations of the Com mission and that, whereas $C5 a day covered the fixed costs on the bridge, its income had approximat ed 9165 a day, alowlng $100 daily to be deposited In a sinking fund to retire the bridge bonds. Mr. Page gave the final cost of the bridge alone as $542,028. The material used In Ita construction, he added, would load 994 freight cars, or a train eight and one-half miles long. A strong hint that the 8tate Highway Commission would re luce the bridge tolU In the early future was conveyed by the speak er In the declaration that the Commission only planned to charge enough to retire the bonds In a reasonable length of time. He; stated that It was Intended to hardsurface the approaches to the structure as early as possible, and predicted that when this hardsur faclng was done, there would be a still further increase in revenue from tolls. A conception of the Chowan Bridge as of high spiritual value to North Carolinians everywhere was given by former Mayor Albert L. Roper, of Norfolk. He described highways as spiritual arteries, car rying friendliness and understand ing from one community to an other, and dispelling Intolerance, "the curse of any land," born of mlsunder?taiidlng and Ignorance. The value of the bridge as art essential unit In the Nation's sys-l tern of coast defenses was stressed by General A. J. Rowley, com mandant at Port Bragg. The gen eral voiced the hope that it never would be needed thua, but point ed to rumblings In China, Vienna, Nicaragua snd elsewhere as evi dence that "the day has not come when we can look for eternal I peace."
