Senator Ervin Reports: WASHINGTON — Work is to start soon on removing1 the his toric portico of the Bast front of the Capitol. CAPITOL EXTENSION Plans call for the extension work to be completed by October 1, I960, in time for the Presiden tial inauguration in January, 1961. The first work to be done is the stone-by-stone removal of the portico. These stones will be mark ed and set aside until a decision is made as to what disposition should be made of them. By next February, the entire portico will be removed, according to plan. Then work will commence on con struction of the 3B Vi-foot marble extension. The manble will be carved in . exact duplication of the olid stamdstones, ornaments and all. BLOCKED ENTRANCE One of the reasons I think this project is worthy of mentioning in this column is that it will block the front entrance, necessitating entrance to the Capitol by the Senate and House wingis for the next two years. A ienice will be constructed around the East front parking area, and those of you who plan to visit the Capitol will want to remeimiber the change in parking and building entrance. I OPPOSED CHANGE When the extension of the East front of the Capitol was being de bated in the Senate, I did not sup port the change. The project will cost over $10 million. It has been highly controversial among archi tects. But the proponents of the change prevailed and now we are seeing the project begin. As a con sequence the greatest change in the Capitol in a century will have been made. The last great change was the addition of the new Senate and House wings a century ago.

Right-of-Way Suits In Lenoir County Superior Court A two-week term of Lenoir County Superior Court has very largely been consumed with hear ing litigation between the Caro lina Power & Light Company and property owners in Neuse Town ship over easements for a 110,000 volt transmission line. Since last Thursday the court has been concerned with four suits which are being heard to gether. These involve the lands of Misses Dorothy and Alice Jackson and Simon Jackson and a tract held jointly by Alice and Simon Jackson. Originally the power company had offered the Jacksons $5,000 for the easement which extends for well over a mile in crossing the four tracts of land they own. Later a group of commissioners, Horace Taylor, Jesse Jackson and W. C. Boone, was appointed by the court to appraise the easement’s dam age to the Jackson’s property and it placed a total price of $12,250. This included $7,500 to Simon, $l'500 to Simon and Alice, $1,250 to Alice and $2,000 to Dorothy. In the action now before the court the Jacksons are asking a total of $105,000 lor the four ease ments; $50,000 to Simon, $20,000 to Dorothy, $20,000 to Alice and $15,000 to Simoft and Alice jointly.
