LOCATE ROAD RIGHT

Milton has well thought out plans
/ to capture the improved road on the

Their correspondent to the Chroni-
Gle is our authority for their plans.

for the Milford to Harbeson route,
and tells us about the spur roads to

the Neck thru Milton, Of course).
This arrangement would eliminate
Lewes or Milford as a market for
farm produce grown in these Necks.
With the State Highway built from
Milford to HarbesOn, il would be easy
to show this County Highway I'M
provement Commission that the Necks
should have improved roads, and that
the only logical connection with the
State Highway would be thru Milton.
This accomplished, Milton would have
all it wanted-but what would the
people have?
This arrangement would make Mil
ton the only market to be reached via
the improved road.
fail to see where these roads
would be of benefit to the county at
large. but | can see where they will
benefit the selfish business interest Of
Milton, to the detriment of all others. .
Compare Milford and Lewes with .
Milton as a farm product market. The .
State Highway Commission, or Coun-
y Highway Improvement Commission
would see just what interests would
