line that bears the burden Of much
of the traffic inland from Norfolk
TO the west and south. Risks OF &C
cidertS are accumulated by the
growing number Of large trucks that

This section Of road contains, TOO,
MANY dangerous curves which have
proved the undoing Of numbers OIL

Other points Of the State where
traffic is dense and constantly be-
coming more SO have had their road
ways improved by new work. Just
one that comes to mind is the ten
mile stretch connecting Nashville
and Rocky Mount. This road was
widened by one foot on each SIDE

face applied upon all of it. Certain

", has been spent in this section IN
some time, though other counties
have been more favored. Nor is the
stretch strictly
local, not nearly 50 much so as some
others. Our own traffic alone did
not create present hazards nor wear
surfaces to their current state OF de-
terioration. So that the appeal Tor
is not purely Vance

Widening and re-surtacln2 OF this

safeguard not to our people only,
but to thousands from distant parts
of the country. a fact that ought to

Widening Route One

Those interested IN the widening
of Route one from Henderson north
to the Virginia line, and especially
to Norlina, have plenty OF argu-
ment on their side so much so tina,
the undertaking is worthy of the
best and most serious effort pos
Sible.
Increasing emphasis is being laid
these days, and properly 50. on
highway safety. When the paving
fever struck the State some twenty
years ago, the mistake was made of
building the roads too narrow. There
was not then and is not now surfici-
ent width to guarantee absolute
safety for cars that move at the
speed now common on our great

Just Plan ignorance

This proposal py Senator 0 Ma
honey OF Wyoming that machinery
be taxed: As . means Of restoring
Jobs and helping t. reduce "nem-
ployment IS Just plain ignorance.
Had he declared openly lor a pen
atty on progress ne could scarcely
have hit on better idea OF how to
impose it.
The lengths to which politicians
will 60 in the meanderjns5 OF their
minds is at times amazing. and this
is one OF those times. This may be
the machine age, but machines have
not thwarted civilization. nor have
they reduced JOBS, except temporar-
lily until adjustments have been
made. On the other hand, how
many numerous Instances there are
where machines have created I'M
counted additional jobs. They have
made possible developments tend
ing 70 lift the standard OF living in
a manner that never could have
been accomplished otherwise. no
matter what the extent OF employ
r:ent.
Without actual statistics as a
guide, our guess would be that few
men in Congress have had moro
than a very little. if any. expert
ence in the operation OF business
of their own. or other folks either.
for that matter. And for them to
stand up and make such a proposal
as this only supplies fresh evidence
OF their ignorance OF conditions they
would have the country think they
are trying to remedy.
Just such ideas as the one ad-
vanced by the Wyoming senator
constitute one OF the largest con-
tributing factors to present condi-
tons. Wild schemes OF this type
have so frightened capital that it
has sought d hiding place and fears
To venture out. And il is not likely
to become active until and unless
there is u change of front in the ma
fipnol Inn.
1t is easy enough to create condi-
tons to harasS and scare investors
away SO that the government can
come along anC say that private
business won't function. and it will
be necessary for the government to
do so. And all the time il is setting
up so many hazards that the wise
course is one OF caution and reserve.
Maybe, after all. that is the game
that is being played in Washington.
