CHEF ENGINEER
FOR TUNNEL JOB
HEARD BY ROTARY

Leon johnson, Chief Engineer
for the Chesapeake Bay Bridge
and Tunnel Commissions %
nlile-avenue across Chesapeake
Bay, was principal speaker and
guest Of honor at the Manteo
Rotary Club meeting Monday.
More than 40 Rotarians were
on hand for the interesting dis
cussion by Johnson, who present
ed an awe-inspiring display of
color film to the audience, as he
explained the massive engineer
ing project which is expected
to open in 1868.
The N. C. State graduate was
introduced by Dick Jordan, who
stated that the Virginia Beach
native had progressed to "digg-
ing tunnels after learning to
dig bitches in Dare County" "
Jordan stated that johnson was
Fan old friend" of local Rotar-
ians and noted that the local
club was honored in having so
distinguished a speaker.
The chief engineer described
every phase of the bridge, tun-
mel, causeway and access road
complex which he stated will
cost So million dollars before
it's completion in the fall of 1868.
johnson indicated that the
Chesapeake Bay Bridge and
Tunnel Commission is operat-
ing the project under the au-
thority of the General Assembly
of Virginia. The commission at
present operates the Little
Creek Kiptopeke Ferry system
which it acquired in 1856 from
the Virginia Ferry Company.
johnson stated that the
bridge-tunnel became necessary
"after the ferry fleet had reach
ed it's practical limits and still
couldn't meet traffic demands
Johnson indicated that the en-
gineering feat will be one of
mans greatest accomplishments.
"Fifty-five thousand tons Of
stea' and 550,O00 cubic yards Of
concrete will be fashioned into
IT'S miles of the bridge tunnel
structure" he said. He stated
that mammoth project will be
accomplished with 5000 piles,
and added that, inside the tun-
nels, air will be replenished at
the rate of 100000 cubic feet
per minute.
The chief engineer explained
that the two lane crossing will
consist of low level TRUSTEES and
two tunnels-one under the Thin
BILE Shoal Channel and one be-
meath the Baltimore Channel.
johnson said that: "All grades
in the tunnels and on bridge APP
proaches are designed to keep
even the heaviest truchI Traffic
flowing at normal. speeds"
The film strips which were
presented to the Rotarians show
ed every phase of construction
on the mammoth undertaking,
from the casting of piles to the
tile placement inside the tunnels.
johnson noted that the tunnel
sections were over 800 feet in
length and weighed more than
a Navy cruiser.
The filmed shots of two man.
created islands, which will serve
as breaks in the extensive
bridge-tunnel system, served to
emphasize the gargantuan pro-
portions of the undertaking.
The Rotary meeting followed
the regular supper for members
which was attended by Miss
Lynn Midget and Nancy Coles
Basnight, who were honored
guests of the club. Miss Midget
and Miss Basnight were present.

things-there would be no toll
roads or toll bridges anywhere
in North Carolina if we could
prevent it. We had lived under
the burdensome influnce of toll
bridges, and we were not going
to yield to. people who had never
weighed the question or realiz-
ed what the effect would be. So,
we quickly repealed all laws
on the books that would auth
orize tolls anywhere in the
State.
In appearing before the State
Highway Commission, 5oE which
that outstanding young man, j
Melville Boughton, Jr. wa:
Chairman, we agreed there
would be no delegations, and
that there would be no person
al lobbying of the members OF
the Commission by any of us.
In our four appearances we
based our arguments on facts,
on geography and necessity. It
was such an unusual course
only one time did it get in the
papers. We were not engaged
on any political mission. We
were crusading for a vast sec
ton of the State and to make
it part of the Commonwealth.
A week after the General As
sembly of 1859 adjourned the
Commission acted and decided
to build the two great toll free
bridges. We shall never forget
them.
After the whole eastern sec
ton had been freed of tolls,
after Governor Ehringhaus had
said that only free bridge
would be built over Albemarle
Sound; after Governor Umstead
in announcing the construction
of Croatan Sound Bridge had
said. "No one will ever say that
Bill Umstead built any toll
bridge or toll road in North
Carolina; after these bridges
authorized under the Hodges
administration were announced
as toll free, it has amazed US to
read that two members of the
present highway commission
favored tolls on the, Oregon In
let bridge.
Such could only come
through an utter lack of know
ledge of the situation not only
here but in the State.
If such thing would happen
it would mean blowing up the
Cape Hatteras Seashore where
over a million people year
will visit after that bridge is
completed. But / am not
worried about that. 1t will

not to say in this presence Of
our surprise and keen disap-
poitment when a few weeks
back our fine and able Governor

road, or stylishly called a turn

It will stir up the greatest
bitterness in almost every sec
tion for the large percentage
Of the tolls would be on the
backs Of the people of the
State. 1t would violate tradi-
tionaT policy Of North Carolina
that our people could travel
within its confines without the

Mississippi U. Ordered
To Enroll Negro Man

NEW ORLEANS (AP) = The
U. S. Fifth Circuit Court of APP
peals yesterday ordered issuance of
an injunction to force the all
white University of Mississippi to
admit James H. Meredith, a 2S-
year-old Negro Air Force veteran.
1t will be the first federal court
deSegregation order aimed at Mis-
sissippi.
In a 81 opinion, the court ruled
that Meredith's application for
transfer to the University of Mis-
sissippi was turned down solely
because he was a Negro. We see
no valid, nondiscriminatory rea-
son for the university's not ac-
cepting Meredith.
The majority decision was writ
ten by Judge John Minor Wisdom
of New Orleans and concurred in
by Judge John R. Brown of Hous-
ton, Tex. U. S. District Judge Do
zier DeVane dissented.
The decision capped a 17-month
legal battle by Meredith, who is
now attending Jackson, Miss, State
(Negro) College.
He brought suit in federal court
after the University of Mississip-
pi rejected two applications for
admission. He charged he had
been turned down on racial
grounds.
After many delays, the case
was tried on its merits last jan
uary before U. S. Dist. Judge Sid
ney Mize in Jackson, Miss. On
Feb. 5, Judge Mize refused to en-
join the university from refusing
Meredith. He said the Negro had
been rejected on nonracial grounds.
The present appeal was from
that decision. While it was under
advisement, Mississippi officials
brought charges against Meredith
that he had violated the state vot-
er registration law in 1860 by

Congressman Charles c. Diggs. JE,
Sends Letter To So. Africa Ambassador

''The Honorable w. C. Naude
Ambassador of South Africa
31O1 Massachusetts, Ave, N. w.
Washington, d. C. .G
Dear Mr.. Ambassador:
l have found most interesting
the recent reports in the American
press about South Africa's cur
rent ''Drive for White Settlers
and, in connection herewith. its
establishment of recruiting centers
in Northern Europe" countries
to ferret out ''select" immigrants
who will make full adaptation
in the white community and its
customs" South Africa's). The
reports indicate the Verwoerd Gov
ernment is extensively planning
an annual investment of over four
million dollars to bring into South
Africa forty to fifty thodsand whites
per year. The proposal anticipates
that by the year of 1000, the Gov
ernment can raise its white pop
ulation from three to ten million
persons to get a sufficiently large
white indoctrinated population to
nearly match the 12,779,OOO AfrI-
cans, Asians, and ''mixed colored. "
1t is hoped thus to counter the
determination of these masses for
independence and freedom from
cOlonialism. This the Verwoerd
Government believes will assure
the continuation of white suprema-
cy and the apartheid system of
racial segregation and political and
economic discrimination against
the majority non-white peoples of
this nation.
Arizona sun., 1962-06-28

I respectfully suggest to the
VerWOerd Government that, what
ever doubtful possibilities it might
have for the end achievement of
its plans, it would be to their ad-
vantage to set up some of those
recruiting centers in such areas
of the United States as New Or
leans, and any number of other
places in the South where there is
a goodly quantity of people vino
apparently belive in South Africa's
apartheid way of life. You have
probably read in our newspapers
that in some of these areas GER
tain white citizen groups have un-
dertaken drives, with little sue
cess, to send Negro citizens on
similar free ride-subSidy plans as
South Africa has instituted. The
aim is to send Negro citizens to
other areas of the country where
they feel their desires for integ-
ration into a democratic way of
life will be better accommodated.
So for these white Americans,
who would certainly appear to
be ready for the full adaptation
in the white community and its
customs" the South African plan
specifies, Freedom Ride to South
Africa-Say Johannesburg-wouid
be the answer to their already de-
feated desires and a profound
blessing for this nation.
