A petition asking for the widening
of Route 1, the national highway
from Maine to Florida, between Hen
derson and Norlina will be presented
to the State Highway & Public Works
Commission at an early date, prob
ably in November, Chairman Samuel
M. Watkins, Of the Vance Board of
County Commissioners, stated today.
The board of commissioners several
weeks ago passed a resolution calling
on the commission to give the matter
consideration and to order the work
as soon as possible.
Chairman Watkins and County At
torney B. H. Perry were instructed by
the commissioners to present the
matter to the State authorities. An
opportunity to do SO has not offered
itself as yet, but at the November
meeting the two local officials may
appear and make formal request for
the inclusion of this stretch of high
way in projects to be improved.

ROAD FUND CLAIM
Figures Will Be Filed Again
Soon With Legisla-
tive Committee

More definite and more detailed fig
ures to support Vance county's claim
for several hundred thousand dollars
refund from the State for roads taken
over by the State are being prepared
and will be f; with the legislative
committee w mas been holding
hearings in past two months, it
was learned today from Chairman
Samuel M. Watkins, of the Vance
Board of County Commissioners.
When the claims of the county were
laid before the legislative committee
a month ago, the committee asked
that it be furnished with an itemiz-
ed statement of some $4,000 to 5000,
900 entered for money expended on
soil roads taken over by the State on
ly a few years ago, and which have
been given numb ers. In addition to
this, the county laid claim for refunds
on several miles of paved highways
leading into the city which also have
been taken over by the State, one of
them made q part Of the ahrd-surface
highway between Henderson and Ok
ford. There was no further question
about hard surface roads. The OK
ford segment was paid for by the
State several years ago, but those
leading toward Dabney and Louis
burg are the basis of new claims.
Mr.. Watkins said no specific data
was available here as to the cost Of

MRS. John GARNER
SPEAKS IN MEXICO
First Woman in History to
Address Official 0cca- ,
sion in Palace.
~ the Associated Press.

MEXICO CITY. July Mrs. John
Nance Garner, wife of the Vice Presi-
dent Of the United States, became yes
terday the first woman in history to
deliver an address at an official occa-
sion in the Mexican national palace.
Her brief remarks, of gratitude for
hospitality shown her during her stay
in Mexico, came in connection with
President Lazaro Cardenas' reception
for the United States delegates who
helped dedicate and inaugurate the
new Mexico-Laredo Highway.
A week-long outpouring of interna-
tional good will, that began with exer-
cises at the international bridge at
Laredo, Tex, July l, was climaXed in
the Presidents statement the road
gave Mexico opportunity to exchange
IAN enthusiastic and close embrace of
international communication" with
the United States.
Replying, Senator Tom Connally of
Texas said the highway would help
make Mexico and the United States
friends and neighbors in truth and
in fact, and not only in rhetoric and
in oratory."
Lavish in Praise Of Ambassador.
The President was lavish in his
praise Of United States Ambassador
Josephus Daniels who, observers re-
called, faced bitter attacks when he
came here three years ago as the man
who, while Secretary of the Navy in
the Wilson cabinet, ordered military
occupation Of Vera Cruz.
After expressing gratitude for the
evident interest that they Ohe Gov
eminent and the people of the United
States) have taken" in dedication of
the highway, and declaring presence
of the delegation confirms the ample
labor for international friendship" of
President Roosevelt, President Carde-
mas added:
But I do not want to end this
without praising the good Judgment
and diligence with which the illus
trious Ambassador of the United
States, Senor Josephus Daniels, has
furthered, within our territory, the
policies of his country.
He has shown repeatedly" said
the President, more than the ade-
quate energy " so to speak, within
the frontiers of his country and in
opposition to the adverse opinions of
certain strong social entities, the truth
about our country"
The Ambassador stood at Cardenas'
right hand as he spoke.
Thanks T. S. for Aid.
After declaring the Mexican govern
fnent had as "the basic points Of its
program of action, schools and roads,"
Cardenas heartily thanked President
Roosevelt and Vice President Garner
of the United States, and the United
States generally. for helping to inau-
gurate the Laredo-Mexico City High
way.
Senator Connally drew cheers when
he told the President: We congratu-
late you on your stand that Mexico
