WRIGHTSVILLE WILL
GET NO MORE ROAD
Commissioner johnson Says Beach
Town Has Already Received
Its Full Share
Daily Dlapatcn Bureau.
In the Sir Walter Hotel


Raleigh, July 9EEnough road work
has already been done at Wrightsville
Beach by the State Highway and Pub
lie Works Commission, and if the
town wants more roads and streets,
it should build them itself, Highway
Commissioner Robert Grady Johnson,
of the third division, said here today,
in commenting on hundreds of let
tiers" which he said he had receic ed
asking for the construction of an adj
ditional highway down the southern
extension of Wrightsville Beach. In
replying to a letter from E. l. Bear,
of Wilmington and Wrightsville, ask
ing for the building of an additional
highway down the southern extension
of the beach, Commissioner Johnson
said:
1T is admitted that there are some
few houses on the southern extension
of Wrightsville Beach that would not
be benefited to any great extent by
the road as now being constructed
without some little work being done
by the city of Wrightsville Beach,"
Commissioner Johnson pointed out
that Wrightsville Beach is the only
town or city in North Carolina which
has never quilt or maintained street
or a road and in which all the roads
and streets have been built and will
be maintained by the State Highway
and Public Works Commission, and
added:
II cannot conscientiously recon-
mend the expenditure of any more
money on Wrightsville Beach to ben
eft only seven or eight families who
live there only two or three months
in the year, when there are localities
and towns in my district that have q
year-round population ofssfroh1F 800 to
1000 which do not have a foot of hard
surfaced road within five miles of
Them.
Il am glad that you good people
of Wrightsville Beach have road but
l cannot conscientiously recommend
the expenditure of any more money
there at this time, as our finances
are limited. If we had plenty of
money it would be different matter.
But / feel that those localities where
people live the year around should
have some consideration.

ANSWERS

1. Manteo and Wanchese returned
with Sir Walter Raleigh's first ex-
petition in August 1885 the first In
dams to go from America to Europe.
Manteo developed into a great friend
of the white people, and Wanchese
an enemy.
2. A one thousand dollar North
Carolina bond in 1864 would sell for
$3.50 in Confederate currency, or
$74 in hard money.
8. This road as it was originally
provided for by the legislature of
1848-49 was to have been built from
Salisbury to the Georgia line, and was
chartered under the name of the West
ern Turnpike. Six. years later the act
was amended and Asheville made the
eastern end Of the road. Funds for
building the road were received from
the sale of the Cherokee lands which
the state gave for this purpose. The
road was built by way of Franklin.
4. In 1918 pamphlet was publish
ed in London for distribution among
the Scotch Highlanders. Among other
things the writer discussed the prices
of land and said that he has seen an
estate of nearly $40 acres with plenty
of land cleared, good house and out
buildings bought for sixty pounds,
about $500, land the very first year
the purchaser made II hogsheads of
brandy of the peaches and apples in
his garden, and some cyder, besides
what he disposed of in cattle, grain
and livestock"
5. The general assembly in 1891 es-
tablished the North Carolina State
Normal and Industrial College with
DR.. Charles D. McIver, president This
institution is now the wOman's de-
partment of the University
g. In 1778 the legislature adopted a
resolution to allow them half-pay for
a term of seven years from that time,
regardless of when the war ended
The war closed early in 1888 which
gave the officers two additional years
salary at half-pay. In 1875 another act
was passed which gave these salaries
to the wives and children of officers
who had lost their lives during the
war.
