flelrig a citizen >of Transylvania
and a tax payer, I want to ask what
is 'vqrohg wtyh oar road' law, Or ty it
the law that is wrorfg?. There are a
number of our County road ) that
hove been practically impassable for
two months, and the writer has ' tr^gm
veled them for one hundred miles
or more, since March 1st, and has
rtfiver found a man or team ?t work
on them. The road beds are belpw '
the-'lev41 of the drain ditches '
many places. The people that live
off the hard surfaced roads pay ^fcew
taxes and should receive 'gome cot}-"
siderut'on ns to a way to get to town, ; j
or any place Which they wish to go.
The Stat$ Highway Commission has
token over wbout fifty miles of our . , ,
main roads to keep up, and '.the ? a-,/-> :
mount of .taxes that are paidfto keep
up and maintain ' the other public '
roads should keep them passable the
y#*r Jroynd. I see ' no serious (ob- j
jeciion to one man as a general road
supervisor, but he cannot , work .out/ 'J,
and keep up all the roads himself,
forHhere are months at a time that J.''i
hp, does not see a road, vrhich per- "
habfl has become impassable.
The road supervisor i should be .
