ROCKINGHAM COUNTY MAY
RE-ESTABLISH TOLL GATES

H~arrisonburg, Va, Sept l5,-After
taking a most progressive step by
voting to remove the toll gates on all
county roads over which they had
power a few week ago, the
ham county board OF supervisors have
now rescinded their action and IT is
likely that toll gates will be re-estan-
iishel before eve the scheme mas
been given a tryout.
Last Monday the board practicaiV
restored toll gates on all county ROADS
when they voted to allow each dis
trict 10 decide for itself. whether or
not they would maintain toll gates on
the roads of their respective districts.
This action, which is regarded by all
AS the most backward step any board
of supervisors of any county has ever
taken. was brought about late in the
afternoon when Supervisor Turner
asked that some provision he mace
for the removal OF tolls from the
Broadway-B Brooks Gap road. that he
did not think 1t fair and just for the
people of some parts Of the county
to be called upon TO pay tolls While
others were able to ride toll free. He
said he wanted II distinctly under
stood that ne was opposed to all toll
gates. hut that unless all gates were
removed then he would vote for the
re-estabiishment OF all OF the gates
In the county so that all of the citi-
zens OF the county would be placed on
the same footing.
