Raleigh. Nov. 1.-THE number of
miles or fural electric lines built in
North Carolina continues to increase,
despite the fact that very little aid
has been received from the Rural
Electrification Administration in
Washington, it was learned here to-
day, Since June, 1895, the Carolina
Power and Light Company alone has
either built or authorized the con-
struction of 1920 miles of rural cleo
trio lines. serving 7,087 Customers and
embracing 497 rural extensions, ac-
cording to the company's last report.
During this same period the Duke
Power Company has also either built
or authorized some 1,400 miles of
rural electric lines, with the result
that since the rural identification
program was launched in North Car
DINA by and through the North Car
DINA Rural Electrification Authority,
approximately 1000 miles of rural
lines have been built or authorized,
of which acout 5000 miles have been
built or authorized by power COM
panies during business in the state,
it was revealed today by Chairman
Dudley Bagley of the NCREA. The
other thousand miles have been built
by cities and towns having municipal
plants, such as Wilson, Rocky Mount,
Knston and Washington, or by the
Tidewater Power Company the Vir-
ginia Electric and Power Company,
and other power companies doing
business in the State.
During the month from October
through November 4, the Carolina
Power and Light Company authorized
1913 rural extensions with length of
800 miles and designed to serve 1883
customers and got much of this mile
age under construction. From June Is,
1885, to November 4, 1886, this same
company actually constructed 726
miles of rural electric lines to serve
1858 customers, while 239 miles OF
lines were under construction on No
vember 4, to serve 1,101 additional
customers the last report made by
the company shows.

decidedly less than was needed, since
some $4,000, 600 from the former high
way surplus has been spent or will
have been spent by the end of this
fiscal year in emergency maintenance
and repair work. AS a result, Chair
man Waynick and his engineers are
convinced that $5,000,00O a year is the
minimum which should be used on
state highway maintenance the next
two years.
To Match Federal Funds.
The total amount of State funds re-
quested for the year 1898 amounts
to $27, 961 1892 and for the year 193839
to $27 ,230, 539, exclusive of Federal
Aid funds, but including $4,000,000 a
year of State funds with which to
match Federal funds for new con-
struction work. In 1885, the state
highway department spent $29,087, 400
exclusive of Federal funds and this
year will spend $29594 1857 Expendi-
lures last year, including Federal
funds, amounted to $36,876,577 and
this year will total $40,524, 735, the
highway budget statement shows. But

For Surface-Treated Roads.
$50 now we are asking that at least
100000 a year of the $5,OO0,OOO we
are asking for State highway main
tenance be earmarked and set aside
for use on the surface treated roads.
This will make it possible for us to
retreat or resurface approximately
1000 miles Of these roads every year
and to get around to all of the 1000
miles every four years, which in turn
will keep all Of these roads in first
class condition all the time"
The members of the advisory bud
get commission seemed to be favor
ably impressed with Chairman Way
hicks argument and no move was
made to change the manner in which
this item had been set up.
Last year the highway department
spent a total of $3,50O,527 for main
tenance of State highways and this

ENLARGED PATROL
TO Be ASKED FOR
Biennial Drive for Increas-
ing Personnel Begun by
Capt. Farmer
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
I'm the Sir Walter Hotel.
, =. e. RASK ER WITH


Raleigh, Nov. 11.-An increase in
the appropriation for the State High
way Patrol sufficient to increase the
number of patrolmen and officers to
200 is being asked by Captain Char
les d. Farmer, commander of the pa
troll, and the Department of Revnue,
it was learned here today. The pa
troll now numbers 121 officers and
patrolmen, but most of those here
who have been watching the work of
the patrol maintain that it would
number at least 200 men in order to
make it more effective as an accident
prevention and safety education or
ganization.
The cost of maintaining the high
way patrol is now approximately $500,
600 a year, which includes the sal
aries of the 121 patrolmen and Off
GERS, the cost of uniforms for all the
patrolmen and the maintenance of
some 80 motorcycles and 60 patrol
cars.
For the first year of the next bien-
NUMB 1937-38)-the Department OF
Revenue is requesting an appropria-
ton of $S14,0O and for the next year
-1938-39-it Is requesting an appro-
priation of $698,00D. The larger ap-
preparation for the first year is need
ed to take care of the purchase of
70 additional motorcycles and patro
cars, of uniforms and other equip
ment needed if the patrol is increas-
ed in size to 200 men, Captain Farmer
explained. The appropriation of $685.
coo will take care of the increase in
salaries after the new equipment has
been obtained.
The amounts requested are only
what we are convinced are needed if
the patrol is do the work it is sup
posed to do" Captain Farmer said
1T all depends on what the 1887 Gen
eral Assembly may decide as to
whether or not we get this increased
appropriation with which to enlarge
the patrol to 200 men. We are hoping
of course, that the Advisory Budget
Commission will recommend the full
amount of this appropriation to the
general assembly, also that it will be
appropriated"

on them last year and this year, the
new budget shows.
S12,5OO,OOO for Maintenance.
Under the budget presented to the
Advisory Budget Commission by
Chairman Capus M. Waynick, of hte
highway commission, a total of &c.
600 900 is set aside for the mainten-
ance of county highways and $5O0O,-
900 a year for the maintenance of the
State highways, while an additional
item of $1,50O,O0O is set up for bet
terments" of State and county high
ways-the word ''bettermentS" being
used to designate all improvements,
especially surface treatment work.
In discussing the requested item of
SIS, 900 900 a year for the maintenance
of state highways, Chairman Waynick
pointed out that he had broken this
sum down into two sections, consist
ing of $4,O0O,OOO a year for general
maintenance and $1,O00,O00 a year for
the maintenance, consisting OF re-
treatment, of surface treated roads.
Heretofore no definite amount has
ever been set up for the retreatment
of surface treated highways, with the
result that CQcTe has uCVcA UCC1A niAJ
systematic resurfacing of these roads
undertaken or even planned. But not
less than $1,o00,OOo year Of the total
amount appropriated for state high
way maintenance should be expended
on these surface treated roads, Way
nick maintained.
I'm the first place, we have some
1000 miles of these surface treated
reads in the state highway system. In
the second place, it must be kept in
mind that these are not permanently
hard surfaced roads, but have only
temporary surface that needs to be
renewed at least every four years."
Waynick said. I'm the past we have
been citing these roads for four, five
and six years without doing anything
more than patch them and sometimes
not even that much. That is one rea-
son some $50 miles of these roads
broke up and went 10 pieces last wint
ter. If they had been properly naine,

The fact that the principals in
volved in this counterfeiting case were
formerly engaged or we're working in
the photoengraving plant in prison
kept them from suspicion, for a time
at least. Naturally, one would expect
well-regulated prison to keep tab
on the goings-on within those prison
walls, but after all there Is a certain
amount of relaxation after a convict
has seemingly shown an inclination
to obey the prison rules and make no
trouble.
1t was on this theory that Lewis
worked. He was a good engraver. in
the sense that reproduction plates are
produced, and in his capacity as q
workman there he had access to all
the chemicals. zinc for plates and
other material necessary.
Doing the prison work required OF
them over q period OF months natu-
rally would allay suspicion. At times
when he was seen working at nights.
he could easily use 1t as an excuse
that the job he was doing had to be
rushed.
In his dark room. which was a part
of the plant, he was alone for long
intervals. He was presumably in the
process of etching or developing legiti-
mate work. which he always kept
alongside Of him. But he always had
the spurious work there also and was
successful in his counterfeiting.
His biggest job was getting the
spurious money into circulation. How
that was done has already been re-
counted

officials wanted to compliment the
Secret Service men, all TEX" Strange
said was: Lets beat 1t and get . cup
Of coffee"
Before they 'beat It," however,
they staged their final raid on the
engraving plant in San Quentin and
there, hidden behind pictures Of
motion picture actresses. found
enough counterfeit money to pay a
kings ransom.
Above the ceiling in the dark room
were found seven copper face plates
and five copper back" plates for
counterfeit $40 notes and q set of
plates for 81 silver certificates. Paper
with the imprint Of the Treasury
seal and serial numbers was discov-
cred in great quantity.
With all equipment and parapher-
MALTA furnished by the State OF Cali
fornia as part Of the prison equipment,
these consprators went out to beat
Uncle Sam in big way. 1t Is esti-
mated they printed $4,000 in spurious
notes.
Daniel Wilson's brother-in-law. Cliff
ford Parr. was the plate engraver. but
the greater part Of the work was done
by Lewis, the expert photoengraver.
Through the innocent cooperation
Of q salesman from q San Francisco
Photographic supply house a great
number Of packages went out Of San
Quentin. All contained counterfeit
notes. They were mailed to Jack
Loretto. whose real name was John
Paul ,5ossi. He passed several hun
dred in Seattle and vicinity.
In San Francisco a man named
