Big Construction;
Program
Surveys of the paving; that is to
be done in this city by grants from
the Federal good roads funds under
the national recovery program have
been started in this city by the State
Kifchway Commission, and a corps of
engineers are now quartered (here for
the purpose of assembling exact data
for the work.
The first portion of the work to be
undertaken is the l>nk
paralleling the Southern Railroad
t acks In the western part of the city
£t. a point to connect the H-ndtrson-
Cxford highway, from the turn at the
3 [arris residences across to the Ra
leigh road, known as Federal Route
*1 and Stale Route 50.
The entire distance of Henderson’s
joain street within the city limits is
to be re-paved as a part of the pro
gram. That is a distance of nearly
itwo mile* and all of it but a, few hun
dred yards on the southern end is part
c f Route 1. That short s^rip,-however,
i.s a portion of another trunk line
J Igthway to Oxford and Durham.
Th: local project already have been
r >proved by the State Highway Cotxl
j- ission and is now in Washington
f:t approval by the Federal govern
ment. Money for the work is to come
from No:th Carolina’s allotment of
nearly ten million dollars from the
pood roads appropriation of the gov
ernment for furnishing employment.
Just wh< n work will get under way
is not certain, but bids are exepct.ed)
to be called for as soon as approval
1j given in Washington and the sur
vey of the engineers has been com
pleted here.

Prices zoomed upward today on all

the .Henderson market, and bright

were selling $2 io $3 per hundred
higher than any day this week. R. W.
McFarland, sales supervisor, announc
ed this afternoon. With double sales
the day’s break was cleared by late
afternoon
Yesterday’s official report ’showed
207.652 pounds sold for $20,133.71 for
an average of $14.03. the supervisor
stated.
“Were we disposed to handle the
matter of estimates carelessly for ad

added,, “we might say that th? aver
age today was approximately sl6, and
the general public would know'no bet--

Figures for the week’s sales will be

in connec<ion with the report on the
market’s activities.
not see how many others can sub
scribe to it.
While it may be true tha.t should
Morrison again become a candidate
for the Senate in 1938 and attempt
to win. back th-c seat which Reynolds
wrested from him last year most of
the people might have forgotten about
the MoNinch matter it is doubtful
they would forget Morrison’s last
campaign many here think. It is also
agreed that unless Morrison is pre
pa red to be more liberal with cam.
tpaign funds -in 1938 than he was in
1032 he will not be able to travel
very far. It is also being suggested
that he had better set up a campaign
foeadqquarte-rs instead of a military
headquarters.
Few here however are taking the
talk of his running again for the Sen
ate in 1938 seriously and think that
Morrison merely made another one of
those linguistic blunders for which
foe has become lamo.us when foe said
he would support the A'mti-repeal cause
and indicated all these \yfoo are for
repeal would' throw the .State back
40 years “morally and politically. ”
'But it Morrison has any future poli
tical ambitipqs it agreed here that
this statement will not do him any

; Dinner and Dance to
Be Had at Country
• Club Evening of No
vember 11
Fltuis tofythe annual observance of
Armistice Day here on November 11
were discussed and outlined at a
meeting of the .ioint committee of
Henderson Post, No, 60, of the Amer
ican Legion, and the Legion Auxiliary
held last night in the Legion club
rooms. The offer of the Auxiliary to
serve a dinner at the West End Coun
try Club in the evening, to be follow
ed by a aanee, was accepted by the
committee, and that procedure is to
be. carried through.
It is expected a speaker will he ob
tained for th*' occasion, but no one
has been announced as yet.
Attendance at the dinner and dance
will be free to members of both units
who have paid their dues for the year,
it was decided.
The fact that Armistice Day this
year falls on Saturday has created
something of a problem for the com
mittee to deal with, and the plan
decided upon was regarded as the
best, and mos f convenient for Legion
and Auxiliary members.
Members of the joint committee are:
For the Legion post, C. L. Carter,
post commander; Dr. H. A. Newell.
James W. Jenkins, D. P. McDuffee;
for the Auxiliary, Mrs. J. C. Gard

Several Offers »
Os School Sites
Already Sent In
While no formal request for bids
has been issued, several property sites
in various locations in the city have
already been tendered to the city
school board as prospective locations
for the new high school which is .to
be built with the aid of government
funds. The exact number .that have
been sent in has not been' learned; but
it is understood there are a number
of them.
The school board's idea was to have
these submitted in sealed offers for
consideration of an outside commit
tee, which would make a survey of
the local situation and recommend the
location for the new school.
Estimates of the cost of the work,
together with preliminary drawings
and specifications, are now in the
course of preparation.
Repeal Campaign
.Is Getting Close
(Continued from Page One.l
also maintain they have obtained
much more outstanding candidates
as anti-repeal candidates in the va
rious counties than the repeal forces
have and that this is giving them a
big advantage.
*‘Thi3 repeal campaign is getting in
creasingly close and it would not sur
prise m: a bit to see the State vote
against repeal on November 7,” said
a prominent business man and po
litician from one of the larger Pied
mont counties who was here this week
“And I am saying thi& as an advo
cate of repeal. I have been for repeal
and still am. But present indications
are Lhat my county and most of the
surrounding counties are going to vote
against rc-peal. The repeal forces in
these counties we-re positively not able
to get, ,jtny outstanding men to be
candidate? for the r, State convention
while the anti-repeal ■ forces, have in
most cases secured outstanding men.
If the eastern ‘and .western counties
are organised the way the''Piedmont
counties are, the .State will go against
repeal. ’’ f
Others coming here from the middle
and western Piedmont counties say
that former Secretary of State James
A. Hartness, who is in charge of the
prohibition campaign in the Pied
mont and west, and who is a past mas
ter at political organization, has
these counties organized to the hilt
against repeal and is daily getting the
people worked up to a higher and
higher pitch against repeal. Hartness
learned his politics in the old Sim
mcns-Wat.ts school, was active in the
campaign of 1908 when the State first
went dry. and is regarded as one of
the ablest political strategists in th:-
State. There is no doubt he is going
to give the repeal forces a hard fight
in the Piedmont and west.
What Hartness is doing in the othe:
end of the State, Cale K. Burgess,
manager for the United Dry Forces
in the er st. is. doing ,in the eastern
counties, although.Biirgess is by no
ipealns as experienced as a political or
ganizer as is Hartness. Yet A here is

children.
Free tickets for admission will be
given to the school children in their
class rooms, and these will be good for

Preparations for the fair are going
forward rapidly, and the buildings
on the fair grounds, located at the
eastern end of tho Anderwes avenue
extension, are being put into condition
for the exhibits.
No poultry or livestock \fyill be in
vited forth;- exhibits this,'year, due
to the fact that buildings which have
hitherto been used for that purpose
were damaged by the storms of the
summer. Field crops, household cook
ing, art work, flowers and the like

that end. &
