He saw the industry grow from his single mill in Pawtucket to more than 100 factories in Rhode Island and nearby states. Slater and his as sociates also became the first large-scale builders of textile machinery and today he is known as "The Father of American Manufacturing." Building Program For Duplin Highway Commissioner Clark of Fayetteville, accompanied by dist rict engineer Lewis Whitfield of. Fayetteville and B. Britton, main tenance engineer of Burgaw, mst in executive session here Monday with the Duplin County Board of Commissioners. Mr. Clark outlined the plan jet up for paving and im proving roads in Duplin under the new road program scheduled to get under way before long. Of the $200,000,000 voted by the people of North Carolina for road work in the special referendum recently, $2,978,000 has been earmarked for Duplin County and 90 of that amount will be spent in the county Clirk said. Ten per cent has been set aside for the qualiztion fund. Mr. Clark emph&sized that the roads are not for sale. They are not political roads, he said. A yard stick has been set up to de termine what roads need repair, paving or constructed first and thi work will proceed along that line. The ones most needed accord ing to the yardstick will be looked after first, regardless of any pe titions. He showed a map he had of Duplin showing every road in the county, every house on the road, every mail and school bus rouie. Petitions will not have any effect on road work. But, In case petitions are gotten up, they should be pre sented to the Board of County Commissioners. He also emphasized that highway employees, including Mr. Tndall in this county, have no authority or say so about what roads are to be worked. They re-ceiv- their instructing from higher up and It is wasting time to cuil on them for hplp. Neither should they be blamed if your particular pet road does not get first attention. Roads under construction in Du plin present a total -of 47 miles. More roads are under construction ;,t present in Duplin than in any county in the district. Conservative estimates now call for 163.8 mile; to be paved in the county, the e will probably be mere. Mr. Clark pointed out that by actual count there is move artu.il traffic on un improved ro-u' j in Duplin than any county in his district. There is mori traffic on the Heulaville-1 ink Hill road than any unpaved road in North Carolina. The second Tuesday in each month will be Duplin's day in the district highway office In Fayette ville, at which time all road prob lems in Duplin will be considered. Referring to new roads, he said the county is alloted 7V4 miles of additional roads each year. No more nor no less. The Messrs. Clark, Whitfield and 3ritton were in a very good mood and appeared to be taking the road work seriously. It was the consen sus of those present that Duplin stands to share well under the Scott road program. Mr. Clark slso instructed the department to give any help possible towards making preparations for the Pageint to be given here next month. He appear ed to be vitally interested in the program. He expressed sincere ap preciation for the vote and pirlt of Duplin in the road bond drive. 1 The' following Resolutions were passed while the Duplin Board of Commisiorcrs were in session: NORTH CAROLINA., DUPLIN COUNTY. ' - .. Whereas, this Board has been ad vised by the State Highway Com mission that only 714 utiles of new road can be added to the County Road system in Duplin County per pear; and Whereas, the Highway Commiss ion requires that at least four fami lies per mile be served by the mad, and that the road be a connecting road and not a dead-end road; now, Therefore, be it resolved by the Board of Commissioners that all future petitions to be approved be in accordance with th above re quirements of the State Highway and Public Works Commssion.

Judson Gregory, Teacher, Radio Announcer; Tobacco Supervisor As the Wallace tobacco market officially gets down to business its new sales supervisor is Jntison C. (Jud) Gregory. "Jud," as he's known locally, re oeived a diploma from the Univer sity of South Carolina in June, 19 36.. He sort of "lucked" his way in-, to a school-teaching job that sum mer and found it so interesting he stuck with it for the next six years. School teaching has taken up most of his time since leaving college. There have been, however, various and. sundry occupations all the way from digging ditches to farm ing to truck driving to selling real estate. Those positions (or jobs, some of them would more appro priately be called) which provided most pleasure and real enjoyment were those which brought contact with other personsOf course, says Gregory, you get a great deal of contact with others as a school teacher and it's fine training in learning how to deal with and re spect the opinions of otheis. Gregory ventured into Tar Heel territory in September-of 1947. Dur ing the preceding five- years he had served at an instructor to Uncle Sam's Air Force personnel in one of the Army radar isfchools. Anxious to eet back ;hito .the usual routine of Things he accepted a position as toacher in the Clinton city schools.

The friendliest people in eastern North Carolina live right in Wallace.". When he gets to reminiscing, Gregory says that matter of farm ing always seems to pop up. It was way back in the early 1930's that he went through that particular phase of his multisided career, and he still contends that his father actually bought the farm in orfler to keep half dozen sons employed during their otherwise idle summer' vaca tion periods between school' terms.
