Ernest W. Mattison Sr and Arlington Selectmen met in Montpelier with Commissioner E Russell Holden of the state Highway Department about adding a third lane on the eastern side of U S 7 in Death Valley. Arlington officials want the road straightened as well as widened. The plan calls for a third lane from the Bliss Hulet property north about 0.6 mile at an estimated cost of 65,000 dollars. Mattison said the highway department will consider the suggestions, though no immediate changes were promised. Also present were Rep. Marjorie Doyle and Sen. Allen B. Angney.
