(UPI PHOTO). After Investigation Complete? Webster Resigns Paroles Post Dearl J. Webster, Jr., 1517 E. Martin St., resigned his po sition *s a parole officer with the North Carolina Parole Board recently. This information was made available early Wednesday b; Marvin R. Wooten, chairman of the State Board cf Paroles. Wooten stated his department had received some complaints EDITORIAL FEATURE When the state officials decided to place the present vehicles building in East Raleigh some ten years ago ap parently they were unconcerned with traffic jams, narrow streets, school art eries for children and the voting taxpay er of that section. It is recalled that the old Confederate Hospital stood on this location and later the recreation department had use of it for developing youth, of the Raleigh area especially as a baseball diamond. When the state oficials found need for expan sion of office building space, this loca tion was chosen. Though vigorously pro tested by members of the recreation commission, the mayor and other inter ested citizens, state officials moved ir with what now will possibly require more land for expanding state buildings and parking space. As was said then and is reiterated now by this newspaper—should a state buil ding become erected there, shadows of the right of eminent domain would for ever hang low over every resident with in a reasonable distance. Petitions were attempted to avoid what undoubtedly is an encroachment on the rights of these home owners to a quiet and peaceful en vironment in their neighborhood. How ever, none of these people saw fit to sign same, consequently the Council of State was never challenged by the homeown ers. Now there is a “crowding” from a radius of at least a couple of blocks. Property along Hargett Street, no doubt, will certainl have to be bought to widen this narrow artery. New Bern Ave., which now is far too limited to accomodate the great overflow of traf fic at certain hours, will or should be de veloped into a boulevard to the belt line. This would necessitate condemnation of houses and shutting off entry at points to a boulevard from downtown picking up traffic especially from further expan sion of East Raleigh, which will include the new Post Office buiding.

When the results of the probe were final, Web ster quit, Wooten stated. A graduate of North Carolina College at Durham, Webster taught biology at the J. W. Ligon High School here for approxi mately three years, resigning in 1963 to work for the Parole tol to the vehicles building, then resi dents may as well begin searching for new locations for their homes or wait until advised to do so. It seems plausible that time will surely bring this whole area into government buildings in a last ly growing North Carolina. B*..y This paper has no argument with pro gress and growth and with East and South Raleigh having been retarded in their growth they now are the logical areas for development. However, there should be regard for all the people when plans are laid so that money will be a vailable to complete projects such as the belt line, which after getting to the cate gory of often forgotten South and East Raleigh, just stopped. With the hospital, the vehicles buil ding, the Post Office building and many more buildings may be expected, the last section of the belt line should be com pleted without further delay. In a fastly expanding city such as Ra leigh, all of its people must become a ware of which way it is expanding, how they may be affected, what they can do to protect themselves and above all how everyone may contribute the most to benefit the general economy and the people’s future. These responsibilities must be faced, Alertness, being properly informed, knowing and doing what should be done when it should be done may prove the key to a more astute and looked to Sonth and East Raleigh, for guidance in decisions by State and city officials where people may be helped or hurt. No longer will only sections of our city find growth. All of Raleigh will feel the pains and delight of expansion. No one can count himself out. Today’s world demands that all of us accept our responsibilities and face our foes or friends whatever the challenge in an in telligent, knowledgeable manner. This is out life. All of us must be ready for any eveitfuality. • • • stands at 1411 W Street S.E. Washing ton. D.
