But more than this Mr.. Weaver
has represented the whole people
Of the eleventh district. We doubt
If any congregational district in the
United States has received more
in material benefits, as a result of
its congressman's efforts, than the
eleventh congregational district of
North Carolina. Mr.. Weaver in.
trodueed the original bill for the
Great Smoky Mountains National
Park and worked long and hard
for it. Even at the present ses-
sion he helped to obtain $743, 900
for the completion of the purchase
of lands in the park. (See page
l-Asheville Citizen and page
Asheville Times, both of May 6,
1889. He has helped to locate
and secure the necessary funds
for the Blue Ridge Parkway,
which Secretary Ickes states he
expects to make the greatesi
scenic highway in the world. Thi.
highway, as now located, will pas.
between Henderson, County and
Asheville and will bring to the
very doors of Henderson County
the tourist traffic of Eastern
America. At this session of Con.
gress he has helped to secure
81, 100000 for work on the Blue
Ridge Parkway. =
He has secured numerous small
or projects for this district, in
GLIDING large additions to our for
est acquisitions and other publ,

Beyond local matters we poin
to the service of Congressman
Weaver in national legislation. n,
is member of the Judiciary com
mittee of the House Of Represen
tatives and is now second ranking
member of this important and ex
elusive committee. He has helpe,
to handle the vast amount o
work with which this great com

long period of time, become IA
miliar with national Legislation
and has served, not only his dis

the democracy of Henderson

1t was believed that the pilot,
though undoubtedly seriously in
jured, had managed to climb out
and get free of the ship, fully
realizing the danger of explosion
and fire.
The papers played Roger up as
the hero who rode his ship down,
instead of bailing out. Until the
very end he had tried to save the
S23. 900 plane. BY so doing he
had, in fact, saved his trial flight

Roger was found that day
about a o'clock. He had managed
at last, through a long and pain

road and to attract the attention
of a passing motorist. He had

Roger had been alive when the

Roger, though Jackie alone had

now-too late-that she, too, mad
loved him.
For this was the awakening, the
growing into womanhood that
came to Jackie during those
agonized waiting hours"She knew
that she had loved Roger from the
first. She had tried 20 put up
defense, not only against love
itself, but against him. She had
thought that love need not hold
any place in her life. And now

CANAL TRANSFER
CONTRACT READY

ALLEGATION of W. P. A. Funds,
as Yet Undetermined,
Expected Soon.
MILL AND RAILROAD
RIGHTS ARE SETTLED
District and Maryland Courts
Must Approve Proceedings j,
for Federal Acquisition. !

Acquisition Of the Chesapeake &
Ohio Canal right Of way by the Fed
eral Government moved a step nearer
realization today as the legal staff Of
the National Park Service completed
the drafting Of contract for sub
mission to Secretary of Interior Ickes.
The contract, between the United
States and the canal company, must
go to the District and Maryland courts
for approval in connection with ancil-
larry proceedings.
The only detail remaining to be
completed within the Interior Depart
ment prior to approval of he whols
project by Secretary 1ckes is the allo-
cation Of funds by the Works Progress
Administration, 1t was announced.
National Park Service officials said
they hope that the ALLEGATION will be
made within q few days, possibly by
early next week.
Details in connection with the sup
plying Of water to Georgetown milling
companies have been completed, 1t was
announced by Donald Lee of the Park
Service legal staff, in charge of the
negotiations. These companies have
. long-term contract with the canal
company for water supply. Under an
agreement between the milling COM
panies and the Government, the supply
Of water will be continued for power
purposes after the canal passes into
public ownership. Terms of the exist
ing contracts will be followed in this
respect, It was explained.
Agreements also have been reached
covering the reservation of strips for
future additional trackage construc-
ton by the Baltimore & Ohio and
Western Maryland Railroads. The re-
ceivers for the canal company have
arranged to reserve from sale to the
Government portions of land neces-
sary for the additional trackage at
points where the Potomac River VAL
ley becomes SO narrow that the new
trackage will have to encroach upon
the canal right of way. The areas
involved, both for the Baltimore &
Ohio Railroad and for the Western
Maryland, the latter only in the vicin-
ity Of Cumberland, Md, are described
as relatively small and as not likely
to interfere seriously with any pro-
posed development Of the canal area
for public use, either as a parkway or
boulevard.
Engineers of the National Park
Service and the Army Corps Of Engi-
neers have approved the plans for the
additional trackage at points where it
will affect the canal acquisition prof.
ect and future development.
