HIGHWAY STRONGLY URGED
Good Roads Convention Passed -Reso-
luton Urging Construction of
Highway by Federal, State and Lo-

A Wilmington-Cha highway
to be constructed by Federal. State
and local aid was urged by the North
Carolina Good Roads association in
convention at WrightsviIle Beach last
week IN resolution introduced by
Mayor McNinch of Charlotte. The
highway proposed in the resolution is
to have spur leading to Fayetteville
Charlotte had a large delegation at the
meeting for the purpose of supporting
the resolution. In a speech in support
of the resolution, Col. T. L. Kirkpat-
rick of Charlotte, director of the high
way bureau of the Charlotte chamber
OF commerce, said:
"The proposed military highway
between Charlotte and Wilmington has
tremendous potentialities, not only for
the communities through which il
will pass, but will yield hansome
dividends to the State as well as the
nation. This project had it's inception
first from patriotic standpoint for
the reason that the government is
giving great consideration to every
available means that will eliminate
cost, time and distance. In discussing
the need of military roads. we find
from a reliable military source that It
costs from $4,000 to $48, 900 to trans
port a single regiment from Camp
Greene to the nearest point Of en-
barkation. We are further informed
by the secretary Of war that had it
not been for the splendid roads in
France, enabling the French generals
to give greater rapidity to the move
nlent of troops, supplies, etc., the
French republic would have been
crushed under the iron heel .of Ger
