1T MAY BE A
NATIONAL HIGHWAY

DR.. Ii. L. ThrOgmOrton OF this
city is in receipt of a communlca-
tion from a gentleman at Pittsburg,
Pa, relative to an automobile turn
pike to be constructed from Poplar
Bluff, No., to Newport, Ark via
Pocahontas. The letter asks sug-
gestiOns as to the most practical
route to be taken in order to get as
many towns as possible on the road
The diagram as shown by the writer
comes parallel with the Frisco rail-
road all the way from Poplar Bluff
to this place.
The proposition Is being investi-
gated by leading citizens here and
considerable interest is manifested.
1t is thought that perhaps this is to
be a part of the National highway
which is to- extend from Pittsburg,
Pa, to Laredo, Tex, and if so the
proposition is well worth going
after.
