Pay-as-you-go highway foe calls for bonds in North Carolina
A Tribune summary notes Frank Page’s praise of North Carolina's highway program funded by bonds rather than pay as you go. He cites 2,370 miles of concrete rural roads and ample gas tax and motor license funds to cover retirements and interest while funding new improvements. It contrasts with Tennessee and criticizes pay as you go as slow and unprogressive. A Chattanooga Times editorial echoes concerns about wasteful excess interest. It also reports a separate New York incident where Communist trained youths disrupted a Boy Scout voyage, contrasting with disciplined scouts and speculates on future citizenship outcomes.
