Delegate Taylor Working For
State Road

Delegate Calvin b. Taylor is endeavOr-
ing to secure special appropriation Of
about sos, 900 for the construction OF
nine miles of road from above Berlin
to the Delaware State line, TO connect
with the Delaware State road being
constructed by Colonel du Pont and
which is to extend all the way across
Delaware. This would give a c0ntinu-
aus line through TO the Virginia line.
The plan to couple the great du Pont
highway with the Maryland system is
most interesting one and can be accom-
plished by building a link of about seven
miles from the southern border of Della
ware. near Selbyville. Del, where the
du Pont road will end, TO point one
mile and half north of Berlin, in Wor-
cester County. There is Shoemaker
road from that point through Berlin and
a little to the south of 1t where the
State roads begins and will continue on
TO P0comoke City.
Pocomoke is few miles north of the
Virginia line, from which there are two
fairly good roads, one known AS the
Bayside and the other as Seaside road.
passing through Accomac and North
ampton Counties TO Cape Charles.
The completion Of these proposed
roads, including the State road beginning
at Crisfield and passing up TO Elkton,
would make two great trunk highways
through the Eastern Shore-Delaware
Peninsula. a region rapidly advancing
in wealth and Importance.
The du Pont road is under rapid con-
struct.on IL will be memorial Of the
great family that is building il and will
be the greatest and most beneficial
memorial that has ever been made since
Appius Claudius built the Roman road
which has borne his name for more than
1000 years.
The du Pont road passes through the
heart Of Delaware from the northern to
the southern boundry, distance of
something like 100 miles. A right Of
way 200 feet wide has been secured and
the construction will be the very best.
almost regardless of cost.
The cost will 70 up into the millions.
One Of the most delightful features will
be an avenue Of trees, which will be
in double row along the entire length.
