Mr. and Mrs. Grover Burgin of Black Mountain visited Mrs. Burg in's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charley Nelon on Stone Mountain last Sunday afternoon. The Broad River and Stone Mountain song service at Stone Mountain church last Sunday af ternoon was very good, consider ing the rainy weather. Many of our friends from Broad River were present. Also Mr. and Mrs. Amil Kirstein of Wilkee church; Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Morris and children, Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Mor ris Jr., Ann Morris and Bettie Jo Stroud from Clear Branch church, and Clifford Nanney of Ball Moun tain. Also we had with us for the singing Mr. and Mrs. Walker El liott of Upper Cedar Creek. We were sorry Mrs. Dotson couldn’t be present with us at the song service on account of sick ness.

We stated that if the amendment passed we would gladly support the bill. The amendment was defeated. No municipalities are more de pendent upon the primary road systems than are Black Mountain and Asheville. By nature we are isolated from the rest of the world. Important projects which will do much for Black Mountain are being planned. The grading of a divided four-lane highway from Ridgecrest to Old Fort and the paving of two lanes are as sured, with construction to be started this coming summer. The completion of the Bat Cave road has been promised but construc tion has been delayed, so that we must continue our demands. I studied the Powell bill with a be lief that my action on it could have a bearing on these primary road projects. At present highway funds for principal road construction are di vided among the counties on a basis of population, automobile registration, and road mileage. No consideration is given to the high cost of road construction here in the mountains, so that our sec tion at present is suffering a hard ship. The Powell bill would increase this hardship as it allocates to’ this section of the state a relative ly smaller part of total highway appropriations. 1 voted against this bill after failing in an effort to secure a division of funds which 1 though fair to this section of the state and in the hope that a more equit able plan for aid to municipal streets could be worked out. Yours very truly, Roy A. Taylor. NEW COMMITTEES ARE From Page 1, this Sec. Intosh, Barbara Wade. Assembly doors: Jimmy Price, Norman Dougherty, Don Turner, and Dav id Paris.
