C., June 11.?The ' Raitherford County Board of Educa"* * '-4 "An t fQ nt fnp tion will snoruy ici mo ? the construction of a $42,000 school building in the Luremont district overlooking Lake Lure, on a comnpanding site recently donalt^d for this purpose by a group of community friends. Plans call for this building to conform to the Northern Italian type of architecture which prevails at Lake Lure, and the new school project adds one more unit to the general building program embracing scores of structures now well under way. The school ; building with a capacity of 336 pupils is being designed to serve eventually as a graded school, but will be | used during the coming fall semester i j as a high school. The elementary t school will be located upon lots 15, i 16 and 17 in block 4 of the Lure, mont section at the junction of State Highway 20 and the Joel Chandler l Harris scenic drive. This particular location will be served not only by paved streets ana roads, but by reason of the site overbooking Lake Lure itself, It will be ; feasible to operate large capacity mo; tor boats which will supplement the . use of the familiar school busses. | This makes possible transportation iaccommodations for a school area j twice as large as any now in operation in this state. The Chimney Rock office of G. i Lloyd Preacher, well known Atlanta architect, is completing plans for the school, actual construction of which is schlduled to start at once so as to ready for use this fall. The larger oultry growers of Alamance county will ship 40 cases or first quality eggs each week, leaving the local market to be supplied "by the smaller producers.

Ta(te, president of North Carlllnlans, Inc., announced today that he has Just received a letter of cordial endorsement of that organization from Gar. Angus W. McLean. In his mail this morning Mr. Tate also received a jletter of endorsement from Dean N.l W. Walker of the School of Edu cation of the University of North Carolina. "Gratifying encouragement Is coming to us in every mail," said Mr. Tate this morning. "We are well started with our state-wide campaign by means of which we shall raise the funds with which to advertise North Carolina and its values and opportunities through the columns of newspapers and magazines of national circulation. Everything seems to be favoring us. Undoubtedly the state is regarded with constantly increasing favor by the Industrial world. It is also apparent that the present Is the most propitious tjme for doing that work to accomplish that which North Carolinians, Inc., was brought into existence. Inquiries for locations are being received and an astonishingly large number by the more active Chambers of Commerce of the state. Tf course many of these inquiries are of small value, but enterprise i. 01 real worth are looking with more ana mnm. favor in this direction. One - _ thing which is helping us and about which the public has eard little is the tact that the City of New York 18 actually moving to disperse its industries. The traffic cohgectlon in that city is so great that relief must he found by sending factories elsewhere. Mayor Walker has announced the purpose of appointing a Survey Commission. "At a meeting held last week in the town hall, five hundred of the leading business men of New York me^ tq discuss and endorse the program of the regional plan of New York ana environments. In an address at that meeting Mr. J. Spencer Smith, president of the Board of Commerce and Navigation of the State of New Jersey, outlined the program which calls fcr the expenditure within a few years of the staggering sum of one billion seven hundred million dollars fcr bridges, tunnels, transit lines and ti e relocation of industries.
