Thonius Price, of New York, sec retary of the Union Pacific Railway Svstem. and summer reside;. t cif Hay wood county, who returned lo his sum mer home here, al the headwaU-rs w Allen's Creek, stated yesterday during an interview with a reporter of The Mountaineer that every time ht came ,o Haywood county he was more l-.essed with the beauty and "friend liness" of the mountains of this sec tion. He compared the mountains here with the Rockies and stressed the fact that there was a feeling in "thpsi. hills that Wki not found in any other section of the world." He con tinued, "there is everything here lu the mountains to make Tan happy. It's just wonderful. The seem ry is never tiring." : Mr. Price spent part of last week here before leaving to preside over a board of directors of his company in Salt Lake Uity. un nw return ha l,.ft immediatelv for Cllcaj'O rm )iusine iinil iptlirlied here for only a few days when called to New York on another director's meeting, lie will be there for the next few weeks. Mr. Price was born in Wales and came to this country at the age of 17. He lived in New York and workec nis way up to his present position. While lu. uiu nn a visit, here he found that the mountaineers of Haywood cot ity had the same friendly ieenng towaru strangers that his native home folkt had, and for that reason he felt more at home here than elsewhere, h said. He stated that when was in the moun tains he felt that he was among his people. He has clearly demonstrated the fact that he loves the people here, and takes an interest in everyone in the neighborhood of his summer home. During the course of the conversa tion the present economic situation was brought up and Mr. Price referred to it as a blessing for the nation, "because," he said, "it is teaching us to practice economy, which has not been a virtue with American people. After tViino-o retlirn to normal. We Will find that we will have a keener inter est in our neighbors, and there will exist a stronger love for each other. We will take our fellowman's interest to heart." No matter what line of conversa tion he is led into he always comes back and talks of the many advantage! of the mountain country, where he says he wants to spend his time when he retires from business. He thinks a persons ast days should be their hapr iof .n,i foola that this could be ful- 'nlled if he lived among the people he has learned to love, the mountaineers. T.
