Road Is Part Primary System Planned Back In 1921 By State "Haywood only wants a standard width highway across the state line into Tennessee, just like all other counties in the stale," D. Reeves Noland, district highway commis sioner said here yesterday, in com menting on recently published articles and editorials in Asheville. which left the impression I hit Mr. Noland was attempting to block a super highway from Asheville through Marshall to the Tennessee line. "I suggest that the standard road down Pigeon to thP line be built, and then let highway engin eers study surveys of botli routes tbe Pigeon River route and the French Board river route, and from an engineering stand point, de cide which route is the best I am sure tlit the average layman can not decide. In fact, competent en gineers cannot make such a deci sion by just looking at newspaper pictures, and reading an article by a reporter who did not use all the facts given him.'' Mr. Noland con tinued. "The published article in tle Asheville pper was off kev - it was one-sided, and they did not have all 'he facts, or else did not Use them." he continued "Let's start tlu" beginning and get all the facts back in 1921. North Cffrclina adopted the prim ary highway program, and have since then voted bonds to carry o-it this program over the past 27 years. In the program, was the plan to connect every county on the state line with the neighboring state with a standard width paved road, also to connect every county seat with e paved road North Caiolina has completed" that' 27-year-old pro gram with tbe exception of only three projecls. It so happens that two of them are in my district the tenth. "One uncompleted project js in Dare county, where a road is plan ned from Stumpy Point to M?im Harbor. The second protect i, in Mitchell county, where a road v, needed lo connect with Tennrs.-e'i at Iron Mountain Gap, and Hie oth er project is for the road from Haywood to Newport, down the Pi geon River." he continued. "All these years Haywood has waited patiently for the road to connect wi(Ji Tennessee, while all but two others of the many, many projects planned back In 1921 have been completed. "Haywood county pays over four times as much tax as some coun ties, that have as high as four high ways across state lines." Mr. Noland said. The road down Pigeon liner to Tennessee would serve four town ships that do not have a hard sur faced road, and are dependent on the completion of the final link of the 1921 program for a good road "It is my suggestion Ilia' the (Continued on Page Fight!
