TO ASK STATE
TO BUILD ROAD
TOROANOKE

The General Assembly of North
Carolina will be asked at its next
session to provide funds for the
hard surfacing of the l7-mile strip
of road along tho banks i'm Dare
County from Kitty Hawk to Nass
Head.
r. Brl9cc Etheridgc. Representa-
tive from Dare County will intro
duce the bill in the House. and in
the Senate it will be introduced by
Senator Harry Mcmillan of Beau
fort. The hard Surfacing OF this
road which was taken over by the
State Highway Commission some-
time agO. would mean that the last
link in the State Highway System
connecting county seats with county
scat in North Carolina will be COM
pleted.
The hard SWfacing of the road
along the North Carolina Banks
would make Kitty Hawk and Kill
Devil Hills. where the government
will erect handsome monument to
the Wright Brothers in memory Of
their first airplane flight and their
experiments in aeronauticS, readily
accessible TO thousands of tourists
who will visit this section every year,
and will fulfill North Cardinals duty
to the nation in providing access
both to the shrine of aviation and
to historical Roanoke Island. Under
the present system of ALLEGATION
Dare County would never have
enough money for the paving OF
the road. The county has at pre-

VIRGINIA HAS GULF MAN Sees
GREEDY EYES ON BIG TOURIST
KILL DEVIL HILLS BUSINESS NEAR

Belief in the early prospect OF
an enormous tourist traffic thru
Elizabeth City via the Atlantic
Coastal Highway following the
completion of all paving between
the Virginia line and all points
South and West brought 5. T.
Smith of Charlotte to Elizabeth
City and he is letting tourists
know he's here with tho gayest
splash of orange cOIOred mint
Elizabeth City has ever seen.
MIR. Smith is a native of Atlanta
but was for several years a sales
man for the Gulf Refining Co. with
headquarters in Charlotte. Last
summer he decided he was tired OF
the road and asked his company TO
give him territory for an Oil station.
Elizabeth City was suggested. Mr..
Smith came TO Elizabeth City, look
cd over, forcSaw the possibilities III
a great tourist traffic with the
completion of the paving between
Elizabeth City and Windsor. He
took the whole territory IN TINS
Northeast corner of the State BE-
tween Chowan River and the Vlr-
ginia line. And this week another
high grade gasoline is available TO
Elizabeth City motorists.
